GRRR! Why am I spotting? - Trying to Conceive (TTC) Message Board

Geez, if it's not one thing it's another! Yesterday I had some of the same light brown spotting I usually get a couple of days before AF. But as of today I'm only on CD 13. Thought maybe ovulation since I was really crampy near my right ovary. Spotting only lasted a few hours. OPK this am was negative. I usually O on day 14-16. I have no CM, so I really don't think that's it. I do have endo, and I think it may be coming back. Man, I need to get pg quick. Anybody got ideas?

How did you find out you have endo? I've been trying to get pg for about a year now. I'm going to see my gyno next month to see what the problem is. I think I might have endo. I've had horrible cramps my whole life. My periods are also heavy. It was great when I was on the pill because I had light periods and no cramps. Since I've been off I get cramps the first day. The kind where you can't get out of bed. My periods are pretty regular though.

Jsquared,

I was shocked to find out I had endo. After my first m/c, I started having pretty bad lower right sided pain. All the CTs and US were normal, so doc suggested I have a diagnostic laparscopy. That's when they found the endo. He cleared it all out, and we've been TTC since (with another m/c in between) Thinking back, AF was always heavy, but the cramps weren't all that bad. Good luck to you.

I'm sorry to hear about your m/c that must be so hard. Thank you for responding about endo. I am going to set up an appointment to see why I still haven't gotten pg. AF comes on the 8th so I will keep my fingers crossed that the only appointment I do have to make is to confirm a pregnancy. Good luck to you too!
