Premenstrual spotting
My dh and I are ttc. Is premenstrual spotting normal or not? In
March and April I only had 1 spotting day the followed by AF, but this month I had 2 spotting days. The flow is normal. Usually I feel the pain around ovulation, then feel bloating and pain again 1 week before AF until the 2nd day. I am doing bbt chart as well. My temperature stays high after ovulation around 98.4F for 10 days and then drops down to 97.9F on spotting days and 97.5 on my first day. Am I normal? Do I have to see a doctor about spotting? Please advise. Thank you very much for your help. Kate |

I sometimes have a bit of spotting two to three days before my period starts. If you really have only 10 days of high temps, this is a bit on the short side. So if you want something to worry about, I'd take that. However, even though it is short, for me it is usually enough Your temps look fine to me. Both the rise and the drop can take a bit of time and are not always instantly (within a day). This differs each cycle and between women, so you just have to figure out what is normal for you. -- -- I mommy to DS (22m) mommy to two tiny angels (28 Oct 2003 & 17 Feb 2004) guardian of DH (33) |

Premenstrual spotting
Thank you very much for your advice. You are right my luteal phase is
short. I think it is afftected by bcp. I've never seen spotting before I took the pills (I stopped taking it 4 months ago). I booked an appointment with my doctor already but she is fully booked until next Thursday. I read that soy bean has similar effect on progesterone like wild yam. Is it a good idea to increase tofu, soy milk in my diet? Thanks, Kate |
