Estrogen starting to surge during period...?

Aislinn

Hey everyone,

I’ve had Mirena removed recently so I’ve started doing the OPKs at around day 8 of my cycle because I know that it can be pretty irregular in the months after removal.

So imagine my surprise when I get the flashing happy face on Day 8 of my period (I’ve always had a super long period. Around 9 days)! Is this normal? Can you start your estrogen surge while you’re still on your period? Seems weird...

Thanks!
