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?

No Period & Not Positive
My husband and I do not use any contraception and I am 5 days late, but all my HPTs are negative. I have all the symptoms, but have no idea why my tests are negative or why my period isn't showing up.

Could be, but probably not
I need some help. Last period was extremely short (2 days) and light. Normally my periods are heavy and last about 4-5 days. My last cycle lasted 50 days between periods. I thought maybe we might have been prego, but then I got the light period. So what I am wondering is if maybe we might still be prego. I am tired, and have had some headaches. When I had my daughter (4years ago) we had no problems getting prego, now after 3 years of trying I am afraid to hope. My doctor can't get me in for like 3 more weeks, so I am stuck wondering.

Hormone test
Ok my husband and I have been trying to conceive for some time about 10 mths. Ever since OCt my periods have been later and later...my last cycle was 53 days long! So today I finally got into my OB and and with symptoms I've been hang they are testing my FSH levels,thyroid and checking for a pituitary tumor, has anyone else ever had these tests done? And what are normal levels? On Friday I'm also scheduled for a ultrasound to check for cysts on my ovaries. And another question I have is during this time should we still continue to try and conceive? I forgot to ask the doc... :(

Early Period - What is this?
Hello Ladies,
My hubby and I are TTC again after having our daughter 3 years ago. We have only been trying for a few months after having an IUD removed. My cycles have been out of wack and it has been hard to track when I ovulating, usually my cycles are 28 - 32 days, but this month I had a 14 day cycle! I googled early periods and got freaked out, I have never had two periods in one month before. Any info/knowledge/experience would be soothing! Thanks in advance!

Frustrated Beyond Belief
So, the DH and I have been TTC for 8 months with no luck so far. I previously had been on a slew of different birth control pills for many, many years. The first two months after stopping the pills AF was normal, came at the same time both months for the same amount of time, no problems. Well then the wedding happened and things got screwed up. Started spotting during the third week of my cycle, of course it started on the wedding night, uggh. And so for the last six months this has become the norm. Two weeks on, two weeks off. I start spotting during the third week and then generally around the same time every month the real thing starts, though I have no way of knowing when AF actually starts because I'm spotting too much, which makes tracking my actual cycle very, very, very challenging. I am beyond frustrated with this cycle of things. I went to the GYN and she basically told me that I was doing it to myself, ie stressing about TTC, which is really unhelpful. She gave me three options to try to regulate it: Induce a really heavy period (not fun sounding), go back on BC for a few months (totally the opposite from what we are trying for), or wait three months to see if things "work themselves out" and if not go back for one of the other options. Why can't this just be as easy as it seems for everyone else around me? Why does it seem every time I turn around someone else if preggers? I am just at my wits end with the entire thing....
