Oh spotting, how I despise you.

Hi ladies! I'm wondering if anyone has any insight/experience with LP spotting they wouldn't mind sharing? We thought it was due to calcified retained placenta that I had removed in Sept, but now, 4 cycles later, I started spotting brown on 5dpo, had a progesterone level of 13 on 6dpo, and continued spotting brown. I'm now on 11dpo and it seems to have stopped. I've been taking 50mg prog. supplements 2x a day so it shouldn't be progesterone related, should it? My only other guess is just a friable cervix, which I did have during both DD's pregnancies. I'm so stressed and down about this. I did poas and it was bfn 11dpo. What could possibly be causing the spotting? We are moving to 50mg clomid cd37 next cycle, but if its not progesterone related I'm worried its a lost cause/waste of time. I would love and appreciate any input!
And sorry, this went longer than I thought it would!

    I had spotting too. My progesterone was fine but thought it would stabilize my lining. For me it seems to have worked. What does your Dr suggest?

    That is so reassuring to hear! I haven't had a chance to talk to my doc since finding out my progesterone level was normal but spotting nonetheless. The stabilizing thing you mentioned seems logical, though! It just makes me batty. Bleeding for 16 days of a 28 day cycle is just plain crazy.
