View Full Version : Ovulation Bleeding Question

Question for anyone who's experienced ovulation bleeding (if that's what I'm having). I've been working with some wonderful ladies on Cheer Squad but thought I'd toss it out to everyone.
On CD16 today, started bleeding yesterday, CD15. I've been taking OPK's since CD11 but only once a day for CD11, CD12 & CD13. All Negative.
The bleeding at first was mixed w/ some CM but now is almost like a light period like I've gone through a panty liner today and bright red. I've not had this happen before and still getting - opk's.
Can anyone who knows or who has had O bleeding let me know your experience. I'm not sure if it's that, or AF came 2 weeks early. Some other signs of O but no + opk.
The more I read the more I get confused since I read O bleeding was always before O but just read on google someone saying it was after O has occurred which would mean I missed O.
Thanks!

Update: I posted this elsewhere but I'm just calling this AF and I think it skipped right past my O. This is CD17 and the 3rd day of bleeding. I put a tampon in this morning and i think I just got screwed. I think I'm stopping fertilecm.

Messed up cycle ... Just like mine, but with a 36 days- no ovulation then I started bleeding. Thanks to freakin supps it's crazy. Hope it won't happen again . Good luck.

I think I might just do like the Vitamins and folic acid and diet now. I'm done with the other stuff. It could be my body re-adjusting from DS2 but I think it's more likely the supps. My CM has been junk since I started the sway so we'll see. I hope we all get on track and get some BFP's in the boy camp. Everyone seems to be having problems.

Thanks for responding Atomic, I'm a bit of an emotional wreck. Something about testing for O and being ready to make a baby, just to get your AF really feels like a punch in the gut. My Dr. said he'd order some labs to check everything out for me, but in the mean time I'm gonna do the above.

I completely understand. I hope all comes back well at the doctor's office.

Thanks. Took blood tests today so we'll see. I'm sure it's nothing but the supps though. I should get test results in the next couple of days. Will keep you all updated.

Awwww, you are so busy and that's so sweet! I forgot to update here. I went in Tues. for blood tests. Although, my FSH test seemed high from what I read on the internet my OB/GYN didn't seem to be concerned. I was a little anemic so I'm supposed to take an iron pill a day (how does that sway?) and my primary care Dr. said to come in for a thyroid test soon while fasting to get another reading since my THS test showed like .21 over the highest level of the normal range. I hope to do that on Tuesday. Other than that, it could just be my body changing from DS2. My OB said he wasn't sure if that could be effecting me still or not. I've nursed all my babies 19 months + so I've never had this experience before.
Unfortunately, now I might be out of town for June's Ovulation cycle but I'm hoping it works out somehow. Man, I want to get a BFP! At least we have 1 boy mamma who got a BFP and hopefully that means good things to come. I took a little break on all pills but I'm down to Fish Oil, Vitamin E, Folic Acid, Potassium pills, B12 and zinc. I dropped the FertileCM and green tea extract pills. URAL will be AF-O. What do you think? Do you think I should still add another boy drink?
So, How are you doing Atomic? Not sure if you are schooling during the summer. Ideally I will, but I won't. :) I was hoping to take a little break this summer but my calendar is pretty full already. :) I'm sure you don't have time to chat chat but I sure hope all is well and we are all loving this site! Is there anything I can help you with?

Don't worry about the FSH. The iron will sway blue.
Even borderline thyroid can cause issues with fertility, so if it doesn't come down, don't hesitate to take meds for it.
Your supps look great to me. If you want, you can add in gelatin or lemon water, they won't hurt you and can help.
I'm hanging in there! We travel to my in-laws every weekend so my DH can renovate their house and make it wheelchair accesible. I could live without the 8 hour car trips with two toddlers, but has to be done unfortunately due to an illness. For now my two little ones are still too young for school and my DS 2 does most of his work on his own. I did school DS 1 and 2 year round but I'm not sure I'll do it with the little ones, I found they got burned out (and I did, too!)

I'm sorry mamma, that sounds exhausting traveling like that every weekend. That's very sweet of DH though, but tough on you guys too. :( I hope things are a little better staying home this weekend. Sometimes I feel like I"m never home. You could look around here and see that mess of what that looks like. :)
New results came back after fasting as like TSH 9.83 when max is like 5.0. That just couldn't be right and waiting to hear back if Dr. wants me to re-take but have an appt either way on Thursday. Hey maybe I'll get instantly thin again with some thyroid meds. :) My iron was actuallly fine this time but Ferrating was very low. We'll see on Thursday.

:pray: that all is well...so many ladies have thyroid issues and they seem to be well controlled with meds.
Thanks so much for thinking of me! I figure one day at a time is always best.
