I just don't get it! AF showed up and lasted a day shorter than I expected but spotting lasted the normal amount of time. Then I had about a week off and all of a sudden I started spotting again and BAM! AF showed up again! two AF in two and a half weeks! Then she ended except for a very tracable amount

I haven't been to the doctor for a while. When I did go and have blood tests done I had no problems with FSH, prolactin, thyroid, or anything else that they tested. Things do change though. I'm sure when I go to the RE he will want all new blood tests done. I do normally ovulate. The last few cycles I didn't and the last cycle I had was the shortest one I've ever had in my life!


My cycles are never shorter than 42+ days. The last one was the one that totally freaked me out and caused me to start asking questions about the random bleeding/AF and the spotting since. I've toyed with the idea of temping vaginally but every time I think about it my temps seem to steady out.

If you've had really long cycles, then suddenly have short ones, it's definitely a problem that should be addressed with your Dr. Try calling and see if you can get

I've taken a few tests and all have come out negative. I've been exhausted lately I'm chalking all of that up to the excessive heat here. It's been 114 degrees for the last month or hotter and I've been super super busy at work due to one of my co workers going on maternity leave and the other one being competely lazy and only doing about a quarter of all the work that needs to be done. I don't mind doing the extra work but having to listen to the lazy one b***h to me that I'm doing stuff wrong and that I'm not doing enough to help her. My supervisor sees and hears everything and backs me up 100% but it's still stressful.


I'm leaving to go home for a quicky vacation on Friday and wont be back till Monday night but. The earliest appt that's open at the RE is at 10:30am on Tuesday and I have to work until 1:00pm. the only other appt they have open is the 20th in the afternoon which is the one I'm scheduled for. My OB/GYN is clear on the other side of the valley so it's about an hour and half drive or longer during rush hour and I can't get in to see her for a while either. The spotting is really very little anymore. It's just a nuscence. I'll keep an eye on it and if it gets worse I'll just go to an urgent care or something. Thank you for your responses. I'll keep you guys posted when I find out what is going on.
