Spotting when should have Period.
41, TTC since 2016. Fertility Dr. says nothing wrong in either one of us.
I spot 10-3 days prior to AF. Been like this for a couple of years now.
Normal 26-28 day cycle.
Normal period is heavy the first 1-2 days and dries out towards day 6. Heavy cramping too, migraine and back ache
I suspect I'm estrogen dominance, all Fertility Dr said was "of we were to think that you were overweight, then loosing weight would fix that". That's all she could say because my BMI was normal.
Anyhow.
Should have AF on Sunday and spotted on Thursday (the normal). But only spotting since Thursday. Today is next Wednesday.
Brown spots, one dark red (proper blood red) tiny spot one day and light pink or light light almost imaginary light pink spotting like, once a day when wiping.
No migraine, no cramping. Some time pinches can be detected every now and then but almost not even worth mentioning.
So 4 days late now.
I've been on Keto diet for 7 weeks now, that may cause things like this when the estrogen trapped in the fat gets loose, but it has never happened before! I've done Keto many times.
Obviously going to do test tomorrow morning, but for now just waiting and wondering and in news for support and good wishes.
Eta: Tested negative this morning and spent all night yesterday on Keto forums and am now convinced it's just keto doing it's thing and making my hormones with ok better.
And I'm going to order the thermometer!
