Well-my doctor found nothing wrong as to why I was spotting/light flow for 12 days! She ended up telling me it's more thank likely because I'm losing weight, eating healthier and excercising now! And that I can expect my cycle to be wonky like that while I'm losing the weight, because estrogen is stored in the fat cells I guess. So, great. I suppose this will make TTC more difficult. She said ultimately it shouldn't, because the more I lose, the more fertile I'm likely to become. (perhaps explains all the globs of CM?!) So that is good news, but damn! I stopped spotting on Saturday, only to wake up today....spotting!!!! Ugh.
But, On a very happy note. Nothing is wrong!! Yay!! Thanks to those who were very supportive in my last post about it! ya'll rock!!
Quoting bricarter89:
I'm here anytime you need!..... Hopefully it may be a good sign for the future & glad nothing is wrong at least, Good Luck & BABY DUST your way!!!
Weight loss and dietary changes can seriously affect your cycles and hormones. Especially if you were having insulin resistence from the weight. Keep up the good work, I know its hard and frustrating, but you are putting yourself in a better place to conceive and have a healthy pregnancy =) good luck!
WTG in the weight loss, exercise and eating healthier!
Good luck with TTC hope you get your BFP very soon!
