I started spotting at 7DPO and continued til (well now) at 15DPO. Seems like each cycle I start spotting sooner and sooner. Any reason to be concerned?
and TIA oh wise ones!
I used to start spotting around 3dpo every freaking cycle, it was ridiculously annoying. It can be caused by many things and can sometimes be a sign of low progesterone. For me it was nothing.
How long have you been charting?
Thanks-
I've been charting for 4 cycles now. My LP seems to be lengthening as well. Last month I was spotting at 10 DPO and the LP was 14 days. The month prior spotting at 10 DPO with an LP of 12 days. Hopefully things will just straighten out on their own. I stopped BCPs back in early April.
Could I get a chart stalk? Do you agree w/FF's O date? I'm wondering if I O'd two days later than it said I did. TIA!
P.S. no idea how to make my chart open in a new tab/window, sorry about that!
I agree with FF. Why were you thinking 2 days later?
I know my temps were consistently (sp?) higher for 3 days in a row after the O date, but my temps rose pretty high two days later. Poor logic, I know, just paranoid that I missed my opportunity. I'm glad you agree w/FF though
As your progesterone rises and estrogen decreases after ovulation you may see additional increases in temp. It's the progesterone after ovulation that increases your body temp. The dip in temp right before your period & the reason you get your period is the decrease in progesterone.
For the last three months I've only had spotting. AF= 3 days of spotting. I went to the doctors and had a pap and she ordered about 10 different blood tests. She checked my iron, liver, kidneys, diabetes, full blood panel, thyroid, pregnancy, and I can't remember what else. I called yesterday to find out they all came back fine. I am headed back now to schedule an ultrasound. I am freaking out. I have no idea what it could be. I might make a post about this to see if anyone has any experience with this.

I went to my doctor for my annual appt this week. My periods have been wacky in the last 6 months without explanation- including spotting for a week before my period, or being late for my period and spotting for 2 weeks. Also, I wasn't charting until this month, so when I say late, I mean late for what my normal period is.
My doctor had me get a blood check to rule out a few things, and I was glad I spoke with her about it.
