fertility question

[wantinfo9]

my cycle length is getting shorter like 26 days from 28 and i am spotting for four days before actual period i dont know the reason
my age is 32

so just to be sure I understand what is going on:

you are having a cycle that's 26 days long and before your period comes on CD 26 you are having 4 days of spotting prior to that.

Do you know when you are ovulating? What cycle day?

How heavy is the spotting?

How many months has this happened?

26 day long cycle is not a big deal really provided that you are ovulating around the middle of the cycle still (so CD 12-14) even with the spotting as long as it's light.

Where we need to be concerned is if you were ovulating later than that, then the spotting, then your period coming early. But as it is now, if your ovulation is happening at the middle of the cycle, I'd not get terribly concerned yet unless the spotting is super heavy.

If I remember right, you have a lot going on otherwise, right?? Can you please give me an update on what you guys are doing to sway and to conceive so I have the most current information to help you with?

i am still exercising with he diet

the spotting is not heavy i dont need to use a pad .

it has happened to me in the month of august and june and i was under stress too.

my concern was if this is going to be a problem when i start trying after six weeks.
right now i am not increasing my weight but eating healthy and exercising and taking vitamins.

something like this has never happened earlier ,i am worried if this is related to harmonal changes

Do you know what day you're ovulating?

If the spotting is that light I would not even worry about it. It's most likely coming from the cervix, not the uterus. Are you using baking soda finger or checking pH/cervix a lot?? Are you BD more than you normally do, or in doggy positions when you don't normally do that?

What supplements are you taking?

i dont know when i ovulate but i will track it from this month
i am not doing baking soda finger
we r not bd more than we normally do
i take vit d ,multivitamin .

[atomic sagebrush]

Ok. ONce we know when you're ovulating that will help figure out what is going wrong (if anything because it's likely nothing to worry about)

For now, just keep doing what you've been doing.

What multivitamin? Does it have herbs or high dose B vitamins?

[wantinfo9]

my multivitamin dont have any herbs
i will track my ovulation from this month and this month my cycles was normal only spotted for one day which is normal for me
and diet and exercise wise i am doing good but not gaining any weight just maintaining it .

sorry for the late reply.

can i add sugar to smoothies that i make is there any restriction on sugar intake ...

[atomic sagebrush]

sorry for the late reply.

Oh gosh don't worry about it!

As long as you don't have PCOS it's fine to add sugar to smoothies. I often had berries, yogurt, and sugar when TTC my 3rd and 4th boys! I didn't make them into smoothies but had all the same ingredients.
