I finally started my period 14 weeks after d&c. I was certain something was terribly wrong....thinking that I perhaps had uterine scarring (ashermans syndrome) from d&c procedure. Is it rare for your body to take so long to restart? My period was crazy heavy with very intense cramps for two days!! Total period length was 7 days. My normal is 5 days. Anyone else experience this or have thoughts/opinions?
I am so sorry for your loss. I do not have experience with this. I had the d&ce (how my hospital refers to it) yesterday. My instructions say to call my doctor if my period does not start within 8 weeks. I would definitely give my doctor a call to see what they think. Hope you find some answers soon , hugs.
Me: 28 DH: 30
TTC-January 2013
BFP#1--September 2013 (EDD 5/30/2014)--D&C for Missed MC @ 9 weeks 3 days
BFP#2--August 2014 (EDD 4/30/2015) --hoping this is our rainbow!
Thank you for your reply! I didn't bleed much after procedure either..really light for 2 days. The only thing I can think of that delayed my restart was that I was extremely stressed! Devastated to be exact. Trouble sleeping, not eating(stomach in knots). It's good to know that your cycles took a bit to find normal after you started....so if I experience the same...maybe I won't worry as much! Thanks again for sharing!!
