Trouble TTC

Two LH surges a month (losses mentioned)

For the last three months I've had LH surges on cd 6 and cd 11 according to my opk's and bbt. Is this a problem? My trouble ttc has been related to scaring from multiple d&c's from miscarriages, so I'm worried that I am now having ovulation issues as well. I have emailed my RE but wanted to know if anyone else has had this problem. I know if it's just once it's no big deal, but since it's multiple times, it's worrisome to me.

    I don't get multiple surges, but I've heard that it can be normal. Maybe some others will chime in with their experience. Welcome, I'm sorry for your losses :(

    I've had multiple Lh surges before. Are your temps showing o after your second surge?

    Yes, O after the second. Which is good I guess...

    I've just been lurking this board, but I thought I'd chime in on this! I mentioned sometimes having 2 LH surges a cycle to my RE, and she said you only have one LH surge, but that other times your LH may just be high enough to turn a test +. It's more common with PCOS, but she said she can randomly turn tests when she is nowhere close to ovulating because she's older (40ish, I think) and her LH just runs higher at times. I don't know if that's helpful or not!

    Thanks @houseofsetters that is helpful. I'm 33 so that could be part of it too.

    That's definitely good.  Things are working as they are supposed to.  If this becomes a pattern for you, you will know to ignore the first surge. We all have our oddities!
