Question

1 day period, 1 day flu (same day and now both gone)? Any correlation?Advice and stories appreciated

Yesterday evening I had some brown discharge then it got darker to a dark rust/brown color. I thought my period had come. Now it has completely stopped. Just 24 hours, if that. I should be around 13-14 dpo now. If it was implantation, when should I test to get an accurate result?

Not sure if there is any correlation between the two, but I went to bed with a scratchy throat when the "period" started, and woke up with what felt to be the full blown flu. Whole body ached, sinus headaches and congestion, constipation (thought weird to be the flu) chills.. etc. Come this evening, all of those flu symptoms are GONE! weird right!? Any stories, advice?

I thought it weird they both started and stopped at the same time.

Hi! I guess it could go either way. You could have caught some disease, and that could have messed up your cycle. Or your cycle could be messed up regardless of being ill. Or it could have been implantation. Whether or not the flu symptoms are related, I don't know. As always: best way to find out is waiting, but I know that's hard. Constipation is something I noticed though with with a BFP. I had IB on 10dpo and I clearly tested positive on 13dpo, so I guess 3 days should be sufficient to get an accurate result. Good luck, I'll cross my fingers for you!!!! Best wishes, Alice

Wasn't pregnant. Flu must have shortened period.
