FWIW, I had spotting this last time leading up to O day. AF ended on CD6 but I had spotting on CD11, 13, 14 & 15. I O'd on CD18. I was not using any aspirin, just Pep tea and Vitex.

Thank you, I will lay off the aspirin for a few days
... and keep with the Rephresh if you're worried about the blood upping your pH!
Hadn't even thought of that, haven't started bding yet but will be back on rephresh soon!
This last af started a day or 2 late and lasted forever with bloody, brownish mucous at the end. It was very strange. I feel like I just finished af and will be o'ing so soon after. Hope u get it all figured out.
I've had the opposite happen to me. Since having my kids, my period tends to be about 8-9 days, starting out super heavy for about 3 days, with the last 3-4 days being spotting. Since taking vitex, my period has been super light - 5 days: 1 regular, 2 light, 2 spotting. I barely needed to use tampons the last couple of cycles! (tmi, I know). I'm sure your change is nothing to worry about - take it as a good sign that your cycle is changing.
Shouldihope,
That is exactly what I'm getting now, why do you think this happened, do you think it was hormonal? Thanks
swish- I do think it is the up and down change of hormones with the supplements and all the other stuff we are doing to ourselves. The crazy things we do to fulfill our dreams. FX this month is the month for all of us so we don't have to think about af for a long time.
Don't just stop the aspirin, start giving yourself another day or two between doses and see if that helps. My money would be on the aspirin (cran is just as bad, if not worse.) even if you end up taking it just once a week it still helps with the acidity.
A chemical is def. a possibility as well and there's no real way to know without having a BFP at some point.
Thanks for posting this Swish because this is the first month that I have had the same issue. I'm like "WTF am I still spotting on cd9?!?" Weird.
I'm only taking Vitex and a prenatal vitamin. I took an hpt on cd28 and 29 and they both came up negative. the strange thing is that I would be elated if this was a chemical pregnancy. It would mean the Vitex is working and I am no longer annovulatory.
