Bleeding while starting stims??

Hi All,

First round of IVF so not sure if this is normal or not! I had my prostap injection to begin downregulation on 4th March, my period began a week later on 11th March. 4 days of heavy bleeding, pretty much normal for me as an endo sufferer! However, I have continued to lightly bleed since, ranging from red, pink to brown. I contacted my clinic but they were not concerned and told me to start my stims yesterday, ovaleap 375 dose. I am still lightly bleeding today... which worries me. I do have a small fibroid at the top of my uterus.... could that be the source of the bleeding? Did anyone else experience this? Should the bleeding stop with a few more days of stims? Would it effect the round?

Thank you!
