Weird AF (warning TMI)

[Bex]

Hi

I thought I was due for AF my 35th cycle day which would have been thurs. Last night I noticed a lil bit of show in cm. I thought ok it'll be here by morn a lil early. In the morn I had lil bit of a twinge in my lower back. I got up bout half an hour later to find AF had arrived. So I put a pad on got ready and went out. I didn change my pad till I got home just after 12. (which I thought was strange cause usually on my first and second day it is very heavy) When I changed my pad there was only a thin small stip of brown blood. Which I take as I hadn blend since not long after I started this morning. It is now 3.30 and when I go to the toilet there is vertually nothing there when i wipe like you really have to look on the first wipe to see anything at all and my pad is clean.

Has anyone ever had an AF that was only a couple of hours long if that. Im conserned my D&C 3 months ago is causing problems.

Could I go onto concieve after only loosing so little mensis. Or could there be something wrong.

Any advice at all is appreciated.

Cheers Bex

Hi Bex,

What you experienced is more than likely just a little spotting and not a period. Given that you had a D&C 3 months ago this may be due to some hormonal imbalance that can be easily addressed with some herbal medicines if necessary.

If you are experiencing pain or are concerned visit your GP. However it's more than likely nothing to really worry about. If it continues or develops into something more then absolutely get it checked out. I hope this helps.

Hi Bex,

Sorry for the late reply. I´m currently overseas so getting online has been a little challenging….

Regarding herbal medicines, I don´t recommend self prescription or simply picking something up from the health food store because of possible contraindications. What exact herbal medicines will be useful for your specific case is best discussed with a specialist practitioner—I can help you with this upon my return if you wish.

I hope this helps.
