    I have a coffee or two every morning, for lunch I have some polenta with veggies, dinner I have white rice or pasta with veggies, then I have some lollies and a decaf coffee at about 8pm. I usually have a glass of wine a few times a week.

    Drop the fiber, it may be absorbing too much of your fat and your body can't make enough estrogen.

    ^^^that is not a super high fat diet to start with.

    Depo can mess you up for a while but i do want to see you upping fat intake and skipping fiber until this rectifies itself.

    ARGH atomic I'm CD13 and I'm spotting again! Which means AF is on her way... AGAIN! What on earth is going on?? I dropped the fibre, some days admittedly I am quite under my cals/fat/protein limit but then other days I'm not so I figure it all balances out? I am exercising 6 days a week. Today for instance I had 2 coffees both with full fat milk this morning, for lunch I had mashed sweet potato/pumpkin (7 grams fat) with half a head of broccoli and I had a piece of milk chocolate, then for dinner I had this flavoured rice (about 450 cals, 6 grams fat) and two glasses of red wine. I'm pretty hungry now so I may have a snack before bed.

    I have some clomid (given to me by a friend) would that help my weird cycles?

    Uh, you need to be eating 40-60g fat a day. If the totals are correct that you included here, even with the milk in your coffee and chocolate, you are way too low in fat. I would highly recommend you don't ever go below 40g- 30g tops, because doing so sends signals to your body to stop ovulating.

    My guess is that is what is going on here if you've been eating like this for a while. Always stay in the limits- not above or below.

    Maybe drop the intense cardio regimen as well? Maybe your body is in complete shock from you overdoing it? And yes fat needs to be like higher I think! Argh so frustrating! Hopefully it goes back to normal for you!

    It doesn't balance out over time. We're already at the minimums for healthy pregnancy and keeping your cycle going so it is very important to not drop below the minimums. If you're regularly not getting enough, your body does not want to take a chance on pregnancy (remember, it has no idea what is going on) and it shortens your cycle to make sure there's no chance you can get pregnant.

    ARe you counting the fat and protein in fruits and vegetables?? Those are free and don't count, meaning you need to get 30-60 g fat (and I'd prefer to see you on the higher end of that more like 50-60 g)

    The other thing I can think of is that you previously (about 2 weeks ago) had midcycle spotting, not a true AF, and this is the real thing.

    I can't have you on Clomid without knowing more about what is going on. If your E levels are low and that is causing bleeding, then Clomid may aggravate it. I'm sorry I know it is frustrating.

    Since this can be related to the Depo I would prob. call the doc to ask about it.
