Is this weird?

Today is CD9 and I'm still bleeding. It slowed to "light" on day 6-7, but has now increased.

Weird?

  • I have no idea. But I'm so sorry the bitch won't leave! Hope she jumps ship soon because I'd be going nuts by now.

  • That would be weird for my body, but everyone is different.  I'm guessing if you're asking, it's not normal for you ever either.  When was the last full period you had?  Before starting FET protocol?  I suppose it could just be that your lining was thicker than normal.

  • My period is usually 15-20 days long and heavy. If it is unusual for you, then I would make a call.
  • I don't have natural periods, but they're usually 5 days or so when I'm on meds. My lining was thicker than ever before, but this still seems long. I would expect heavier but not necessarily longer.

    I don't know though.

    My periods are usually 10-15 days long. My OB said not to worry as long as it doesn't go over 14 days (although 15 isn't unusual for me so I don't have to worry). And bleeding can be inconsistent in heaviness. Sorry you're dealing with this.

  • I should add that they only come 2-3 times a year.
  • My periods last 7-10 days when not on BCPs. Bleeding will come and go. I would guess it's from your thickened lining, but if you're worried, you could call.
    Congrats to my TTC buddy Madeline! Cheering for all the strong 3T ladies!

  • Whenever I get a medically induced period it usually last up to 9-10 days.  For the rare times I get one on my own, it'll last around 7 days and be light, heavy, light, heavy, etc.  So yours sounds 'normal' to me, but that may not be normal to you.
