This spotting is your periods

Hi,

I understand your concerns.

This spotting what you described is your periods. It is possible to have such irregular periods once in a while. There is nothing to worry about it. This is not pregnancy related.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

I am trying to conceive but my periods fluctuate between 28 and 31 days. sometimes my period can be up to 34 days. I have been investigated thoroughly and I have no pcos all bloods and everything are normal. can I conceive naturally please

I am trying to conceive and have been for 6 months. I have had all blood tests and ultrasound scan all is normal. I have seen a fertility specialist he wont start any kind of fertility treatment until my BMI is 35. My BMI.is currently 40 so I am trying my best to lose weight. I am 40 years of age and worry I will never be a mum. I have started having mild pink bleeding around day 14-17 of my cycle this is unusual for me. My consultant isnt worried and says relax and I will get pregnant naturally. Husbands sperm count is also fine. Do you see I conceive and how do I know I definitely ovulate? I have bought a clearblue fertility monitor which only ever shows low and high fertility and never a peak.

. My consultant says I do ovulate and to ignore ovulaation tests as it causes more stress. What are your houghts please? All I want is to be a mum and I am gettingt very depressed and upset about things.

my cycles have been 27 and 28 days for the past 5 months I am.on day e2 this month no sign of oeriod and not pregnant what is wrong with me pllease
