Something is wrong with AF.

My last 6 six cycles have gradually become lighter and lasting a shorter amount of time (1 day this past cycle - not preggers- they use to last up to 7). I have made a doctors appoinment but was curious if any of you have experienced this while TTC.

My mum thinks it could be thyroid related, my DP thinks it could be stress related. I have this awful feeling that it could be perimenopause. I know I am being a hyprocondriact(sp), but this is really starting to stress me.

My girlfriend went through the same thing when she was ttc #1 and her's turned out to be thyroid related ( 4 moths later and a little medication and she fell pregnant and now has a beautiful 16 week baby boy).

Try not to stress though because that wont be helping at all.I know that easy to say but it's true, the more pressure you put on your self and its amazing how are body's can react.

Cheer up you have done the best thing possible and made a doctors appt. Hopefully that will ease your mind.:thumbsup:

i use to get this and it was thyroid related, and was made worse by stress.

Thanks for the advice kristi & flick83 -

Doctors app on Monday so hopefully I will know what is happening by the end of the week.

I know I shouldn't be stressing but I have a really bad feeling about this. I have done a bit more online reading and I have all the symptoms of early onset menopause - If that is the case I would be devastaded. There is still a slight chance of getting pregnant during perimenopause but very very slight. (DP keeps telling me that I am a hypochondriac - hope he is right)
