Question

Is it possible to have AF 7 days after ovulation?

Hi everyone,

Any thoughts or share of similar experience will be much appreciated...

I had a missed miscarriage late in July and had a D & C on 1st Aug. And ovulated on 23/24 Aug - confirmed with OPK and a scan.

Yesterday, (TMI) I had small amount of white discharge I would normally get before AF. Today, I started kind of spotting (TMI) - brown when wiped.

Is it possible to have AF 7 days after ovulation?
I had a regular 28 cycle before the miscarriageâ?¦

Thanks in advance for answering my question.

It is possible but it would indicate a pretty bad LP defect. It's also possible you had a bit of implantation bleeding! FX that you get some very good news in the next week with an HPT :)

Thanks of your answer, luvtowalkfast.
I am sure it isn't implantation bleeding as we didn't give a go for this cycle.
Hmmâ?¦ what would bad LP defect mean? worried nowâ?¦. :(

Thanks.

Please disregard my additional question, luvtowalkfast.
I did a quick online research and now I understand what LP defect means :(

I was told by my OB to wait until next cycle as my uterus hasn't fully healed. He would normally recommend patients to try as soon as ready but not in my case as I had unusual bleeding after a D & C.

Thanks again for answering my question - I learned something very useful from your answer and it is very much appreciated.

If u havent started a full flow, spotting wouldnt count as a period, so a luteal defect isnt really something to consider at this point. Worry about that when u have an actual menses. Changing hormone levels will cause spotting and just coming off of a mc would definitely render unstable hormones. Its always good to research and educate urself on these things, but try not to worry about them if they dont apply to u at this point in time. Next cycle will be a bit more accurate as to how ur body will work.
Best of luck, sorry for ur loss! =))

Many thanks, dakotagurrl for your response. Feeling much better after reading your post. The spotting was once only last night and it's stopped now.

I'm 37 now and feeling a bit anxious I guessâ?¦
