TTC After a Loss

Newbie Here

Hi Ladies! I have just completed the miscarriage process, it has been 8-10 days start to finish and the bleeding has completely stopped, finally (The last few days was just spotting) and the day i actually miscarried was Sunday, the 4th day into it. I am glad to officially be able to put this behind me and forget. Now i can move on from this once and for all, look to the future. So what happens now??? I know my hcg is dropping quickly because i've taken a couple tests and the line has gotten much lighter, i just dont know how low my levels are yet. Can i have sex ?? How long should it take for my hormones to normalize and when can i expect a real period? We are obviously going to wait to try for another pregnancy, i just hope its not forever before that happens. Will i likely ovulate this cycle or not til the one after ? How is it that you can get AF without ovulating anyway

  • Welcome to the board and I'm sorry for your loss. I want to echo what PP's said and definitely speak to your doctor. In some cases you shouldn't TTC immediately after a loss, I know I had to wait 2 cycles, but that was based on my loss and medical history. Definitely speak to a professional.

    Everyone Welcome

  • My doctor has advised me to wait for a period which he said i should have in 4-8 weeks and that it would be ok to start trying once i do get it. He just hasn't been specific about everything else like how long to stay off sex. I am also going for blood draws every week so they can watch my HCG and monitor me until the levels go down. Then i should be in the clear
