Infertility

Really short period?

Ever since I've been off bc, 2 years, my periods have only lasted a day and a half. I was thinking after my early loss last week that I would have a longer and heavier period. Well, not so much. Still only a day and a half, if that. I'm starting to wonder if having short periods are somehow related to my IF since I'm unexplained. My RE has never seemed too concerned about but I'm definitely going to bring it up at my WTF appt next week. Have any of you experienced really short periods and found that it was related to IF?

Re: Really short period?

    I would think that the concern with a short period is an insufficient lining, but since you were being monitored that shouldn't have been an issue.  So I guess I wouldn't worry about it too much. 

    3 ectopic pregnancies (EDD's 1/30/12-tube removed, 6/2/12-methotrexate and 10/2/12-methotrexate)
    IVF and Natural FET resulted in BFN's and a hole in our wallets
    Natural BFP #4 on 9/7/12 gave us our miracle on 5/18/13

  • My mom had really short and very light periods her whole life... and she was a fertile myrtle.... so I wouldn't worry too much.  Her thought (not an MD) on the matter was that different people reabsorb different amounts while you are on your period... and your body can definitely change over time
