TTC After a Loss

Shorter cycles after miscarriage?

I had really long cycles prior to my pregnancy and miscarriage and am wondering if it's possible for a miscarriage to cause shorter, more normal cycles after.  The reason I'm wondering is because I'm on CD16 and feeling all the signs of ovulation (I normally wouldn't be ovulating for like 2 or 3 more weeks.) Hmmm...
Me: PCOS   DH: No issues

August '16-January '17: Clomid + HCG + IUI/TI = BFN
February/March '17: Menopur + HCG + IUI = BFN
April '17: Menopur + HCG + TI (due to too many mature follicles) = BFN
May '17: Took off due to cysts
June' 17: Menopur + HCG + IUI = Cancelled due to 8+ mature follicles
November '17: Clomid + HCG + IUI= BFN
December '17: Menopur + HCG + TI= BFP!!!! Due August 2018


Re: Shorter cycles after miscarriage?

  • I have heard that getting pregnant can help regulate your cycles. If you had irregular cycles pre-pregnancy than they can become more normal after pregnancy. I just had a miscarriage and still waiting on my first period so we will see. I never had long or irregular cycles, but I have signs of low progesterone. My doctor said that my cycles should become more normal after the miscarriage. I hope he is right :)

  • I had long cycles prior to my pregnancy, after my loss they did get shorter and normal for a while. Now they are back to being irregular and long.. It really depends on the person I think..

  • I do know pg can change your cycles. My cycles are nothing like they were pre-loss and I'm now on cycle #8 so I'm thinking they might have changed for good. Sometimes they do change, but sometimes they go back. If things are getting really quirky, I would recommend charting to see what's going on in there.

    This. For me I don't think my cycles have changed drastically, well at least so far. I have only had one full cycle since my loss and it was 29 days, pre-pregnancy cycles were usually 30. If we don't get our BFP this cycle it will be interesting to see if it is any different. Charting is a really good way to know what your body is doing. After a couple of months you will probably be able to figure out what your new "normal" is. HTH  Smile

  • I am on my first cycle after my loss and AF came 2 days earlier than I planned on (it came on CD26 and I usually have 28 day cycles) and lasted a day longer than normal.  

    I'm thinking that, just like pregnancy, everyone has a different experience.

    Good luck to you!
