after my loss i have had VERY light cycles... there is no flow or anything... but would still soak up a tamponChat Icon
they were very painful except for this month... the pain was hardly there...

i just have been reading that these very light cycles could be something serious and could affect my fertility..

i wonder if this is true Chat Icon Chat Icon

did anyone else have really light periods after the loss??

I've only had one and it was very light. I had another light one a week later.

Now I'm nervous too! What were you reading? I still think it will take awhile to get back to normal!

Deanna, don't read into it, sometimes I think the internet is a terrible thing, after my last m/c I kept researching every little thing and made myself crazy. After all of my losses, my AF was a little light, especially on this one. My RE said it was perfectly normal and not to worry about it.

If youhave any questions, you should call your obgyn and ask.Chat Icon

Definitely update after your DR appt. I'm not going to look it up b/c I don't want to be even more nervous than I am! But I'd love to see what the DR says!

stop researching on the internet and try to relax, I know it's hard! Chat Icon
if you are so upset it will make you worse until your appt, call the doctor and ask him to call when he has time to talk and discuss the situation. Chat Icon

Mine have been light ever since. They were never really heavy. My RE told me it is not a big deal at all.

Stay off the internet! HAHA, I should take my own advice!!!

the internet is a terrible thing, I scared myself after my miscarriages reading.

Stay away from it, if you can.



Try moving your appt up if you are freaked.

I'm sure everything is fineChat Icon Chat Icon
