Late 2nd Period After D&C Late However Not Pregnant

pixies79 · Jan 6th, 2008, 23:08 PM

Hey,

Hope everyone is doing ok. I was unsure whether to place this in here however I thought some of you may be in the same boat! I have a question. I had a d&c on oct 24th. Got my period on the 6th December and now have no signs of second period a part from sore breasts now and again (??). I have done about five HPTs and all are negative. I believe my cycles were around the 28 day mark prior to this. I am not sure what is going on other then my body is a bit out of whack.

Has this happened to anyone else? Thanks guys.

Take lots of care x x

Sorry i haven't experienced this, i didn't have a D&C but it seems you got your period quite quickly afterwards so your body could still be getting back to normal. I would just leave it another week or so before testing again. x

sorry 2 hear bout ur miscarriage but it can take some time for periods 2 regulate as its a change 4 it all 2 get used 2 fingers crossed 4 u tho xx

As others have said, it can take a while for your body to get back to normal after a miscarriage. Some women don't have a period until 8 weeks after a miscarriage.

Good luck hun.

Hiya Pixes

I am in the same boat as you ! I had a d&c on 2nd November, got my 1st period on 8th Dec and nothing since - i am on cd33 today. I did a pg test yday morning and it was also negative. I've had slight period like pains for over a week now and also spotted slightly (i mean very slight) it was pinky (sorry tmi)! but nothing since. My boobs arnt sore just feel a little heavier than normal. Its comforting to know i'm not on my own.

Hello
I'm new to this site but was just googling about delayed second periods and came across it.
I had d and c on 28th Jan, and had all sorts of problems afterwards as they didn't get it all out, culminating in contractions and excessive bleeding with clots in 2nd March. This the doctor told me was me getting my first period and getting rid of the left-over bits that had been causing the problems. That period then followed a normal track and I am now due for my next, but it is late (today is day 32). I did a HPT last night which was negative, and I am now wondering how long I am going to have to wait. Very frustrating as after all the problems I've had when the bleeding wouldn't stop for 4 weeks, it now won't start! And we are eager to get going TTC again...

Did "funkym" and "pixies79" get their second periods in the end??

Hi PollyP,

I am in a similar boat to you. I had a miscarriage in January at 10 weeks followed by a D&C on January 24th. I had my first AF on March 10th. Since then I have been using the CBFM to predict ovulation and so far nothing which means I think my cycle is going to be quite long this cycle. It's very frustrating as like you I want to get back on the TTC road again. From what I can gather it can take a few cycles before things are back to normal again. Here's hoping we don't have too long a wait ahead of us.

Hi,

just wanted to drop by and say good luck!

I had missed mc and d&c feb 22. Have just had my af march 25 and my cbfm is showing a high reading today. Im still not sure what to expect... whether i'll get an ov reading or what..(just remember if this is your fist cycle using it it takes at least one cycle to get to know you so it can give you much longer high readings than normal) ..

... i havent used mine for nearly 100 days!!

I take every little thing as a blessing though, getting af..which means i ov'd etc.

All the best and hope you get a bfp soon!! xxx

Hi everyone...i am new to this site, but going through the same thing. I had a D&C in September and my first cycle was exactly 28 days...i am now waiting for my second AF and nothing!!! I am a week late and have done 2 pregnancy tests. Anyone have any advice

Hi hun. So sorry to hear of your loss.

My second period after my d and c arrived at cycle day 31 instead of cycle day 28. My periods had always been 28 days apart, but for months after were spaced out at 31 days. Six months later they're still a little out of sorts. If you are not pregnant, stress can also play a factor in having a late period. It may be worth getting an appointment with your doctor. Hope this has helped you a bit? Take care hun. Sending you big
