Heard back from my fertility specialist.

13 Replies

Hi everyone.

So I have got a letter from my fertility specialist today re concerns I have over spotting 6,10 and 12 days post ovulation.

He said some people think it is implantation bleeding but he doesn’t subscribe to that view.

He notes it could be my lining of uterus changing due to progesterone changes after ovulation and other possible causes of bleeding.

As long as my smears are update and normal nothing needs to be done for now.

Slightly deflated by his response but have more pressing health issues going on and hope to hear soon from my endo nurse ( she’s back in the office today) xoxo

Hi jess1981. Yes, not much of a response as to what has been going on. Still, you've got your endo nurse to listen properly. Good luck! Diane

I think our bodies baffle these specialists sometimes. He doesn't really seem to know what's going on. Hopefully it'll settle. Hope you get a better response from endo nurse.

Thank you me too!!!

I’m more worried by my severe bowel issues which I’m finding difficult to cope with. At least I have a endo nurse and she understands 😘

How are things your end? Has your appointment come through yet? xoxo

Thank you.

The heat really doesn’t help does it. I love this weather but it’s really hard to sleep in it! I was tempted to sleep under the stars 😆

That’s good not too long to wait and you’ll be in the best hands very soon 😘 xoxox

Sorry to hear that you've not had much of an answer but at least they are listening to you and it creates a fuller picture for your team for your treatment going forward! Hope you get better info from the nurse.xx

The endo is a separate to the fertility issue although I’m sure it affects fertility. It was a bit vague don’t know what I expected really! 🙈 thank you.

How are things your end? xoxo

Sometimes we just have a feeling Jess.....! Stick to your guns.

Well a wee bit better at my end - Ive just posted an update. After googling, I had an epiphany that my prolactin might be better if tested later in the morning and whoa and behold its normal! My own research paid off! Ive still got my TSH to be under 2 - last result was 2.51 and lab cocked up my last sample so still waiting on result for that. Seeing GP on Tuesday to hopefully discuss a small increase in levothyroxine....hoping he's on my side, he's been really good so far! Fingers crossed!xx

Thanks for posting Jess and sorry to hear you got such a woolly response. I have been spotting all over the place this month in fact still now. I just started taking dhea this month so could be that but I am contacting one of the gynaecologists I saw previously (thanks for the suggestion) so will let you know if I get any more info xx

🤦🏽‍♀️ I hope you have better luck! 👍 xoxo
