How long did your bleeding last? Did it just go straight into AF? and when did your pregnancy tests go back to negative?

Sorry to here about your chemical
I had one last month at 5 weeks, I went to the doctor because I had booked in to go that day anyway. She sent me for a scan to check everything out and a blood test to measure my hcg. The scan showed nothing there and my hcg was at 9. I bled heavy for 3 days then spotting for the next 4. It wasn't really like a period more like the bleeding after birth but not for as long. I had another hcg blood test a week later to confirm it had gone back to 0 and another scan 2 weeks after just to check it wasn't ectopic.
Everything was fine for me to try again this month and Im in the 2ww now. I hope everything goes back to normal for you quickly.

Thanks for your advice.. see my boobs are still sore.. i am bleeding but it isn't that heavy but very red and dark. It mainly comes out when I go to the bathroom. I did have very bad cramping earlier today but it is settling down now. I haven't called my doctor because I have only gotten faint positives and I am really only 11 dpo today.. I am due for my period on wednesday.

Thanks ladies!! it's definitely not fun. One question did the chemicals make you ovulate sooner?

I didn't have a chemical, but had an early miscarriage (5 weeks). My bleeding lasted about 5 days and ovulated roughly 2.5 weeks later just like a regular cycle except that the pregnancy symptoms took a while to go away because the hcG was still really high. I'm really sorry about your loss/chemical. :(
