Cycle Perplexities
Is your cycle misbehaving? Like your
usual N-day menstrual cycle is all of a sudden
longer or shorter, or you're spotting where AF should be here in full force, or
PMS symptoms but no sign of AF? And has it got you thinking (...pregnant?), or
generally confused or stressed or time to call the OB/Gyn?

AF came almost 2 weeks early...WHAT?!?
OK, so I had always been as regular a a clock. I had 30 day cycle (DC). That was before my son was born in May 2006. Since July 06, I've worked myself into a different groove of a 28 DC. Although it's not regular, AF can come as early as 24 or as late as 33. Today AF came on CD 16. This has never happened and it concerns me a little. I had a successful TL just after my son was born, so I am not pregnant. I am in a monogamous LT relationship, had a normal pap less than a year ago. I am a little stumped as I had my hormones checked a few weeks ago tests showed no cause for concern. Do I need to go to my OBGYN or just figure it to be normal at my age? BTW I am approaching 40. Any input would be appreciated.

disturbing weird discharge. HELP !!
this is sort of embarrassing for me but i cant seem to find any answers other answers on the internet so here i go. ive been trying to understand my cycle a little better so i started checking my cervix positions every couple of days. I checked Feb.24th and my cervix felt slightly open and low (at least i think it was) & no discharge. I got my period Feb.26th to March 2nd. Today i checked myself and when i pulled my fingers out i had a lot of thick clumpy dicharge that was wet. (i know tmi, sorry) the discharge looked like wet toliet paper and i would have never known anything about it if it werent for the fact that i was checking myself. I know i dont have a yeast infection b/c ive had one before and i dont have NONE of the typical symptoms. no itching, smell, irritation, swelling, burning while urinating nothing. im so confused. i dont know what this is. can anyone help me please ????? !!!!!!

Need some cycle input....
I need some input on my cycle....
Last month was an 'oops' month for me.
I got my period or so I think I did around the right time but it was very strange.
Feb 21 - light spotting (cd 1) (brown)
Feb 22 - light spotting (cd 2) (brown)
Feb 23 - heavy (cd 3) (bright red)
Feb 24 - heavy (cd 4) (bright red)
Feb 25 - light spotting (cd 5) (brown)
Feb 26 - light spotting (cd 6) (brown)
Feb 27 - light spotting (cd 7) (brown)
Feb 28 - light spotting (cd 8) (brown)
Mar 01 - light spotting (cd 9) (brown)
Mar 02 - light spotting (cd 10) (brown)
For an idea of the strangeness:
I use my Diva Cup and on all the spotting days there was barely enough to cover the bottom of the cup and on the only 2 heavy days, the cup overflowed with just blood but no clots or debris (ruined 2 pairs of undies and a pair of PJs GRRRRRrrr LOL)
I have NEVER in all my periods had one like this. Mine are always 6-7 days. Usually it's CD 1 - Cd 3 heavy/thick/debris and CD 4 - CD 6 Light and CD 7 - Spotting.
For this cycle, spotting started on what would have been CD 27 of a 29 day cycle. I'm regular like clockwork and would have O'd around Feb 10th.
Aunt Flo just strange or should I POAS just to be sure?

EWCM Twice in 1 cycle...
I'm currently in the 2 ww. I have a 32-34 day cycle and typically ovulate around day 19-21. This month I had ewcm on day 12, but no pos opk's-then nothing for a week. Then on day 19, I had ewcm, and pos opks.
Currently I'm on day 25.
This has never happened to me before. Anyone ever hear of this...

No "egg white" mucus!? :(
Hi ladies, I was wondering if anyone else out there did not experience stretchy "egg white" cervical mucus? I have been off the pill for about a year and I get my period regularly. (avg. 30 days apart) I am trying to get my body ready for a baby this summer. I do get very wet (more watery) on the days when the caledar says i should be "fertile". Is this something I should be worried about? Anyone else out there not have "egg white" ?? Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
