how long do it take for you to get your period

i just had a miscarriage december 16 and i still havent had my period how long do it usually take could it be something wrong

you should go back and make sure that everything has passed and passed naturally first. I have heard that some women's cycles get thrown way off track and are different from month to month. I know I am kinda waiting to see what happens, I m/c on 12/19.

Good luck and many prayers to you!

i had a D&C due to a missed miscarriage on Dec. 10 and still have not had a period...after the D&C I was told by my MD that it would be from 5-6 weeks before I started a period.....not sure if the D&C is the same time frame as a natural miscarriage though.....like judylacar said, it might be a good idea to get checked out in case you didn't pass everything...but i might wait being it hasn't been 4 weeks yet since the miscarriage...how far along were you when you miscarried???  i'm sorry for your loss.

I miscarried at 6 weeks (missed miscarriage) and it took me six weeks to get my period. I've heard of people who have miscarried to go longer than even. It all just depends on your body and like the last 2 posters said you may want to get checked out to make sure everything passed.

I had a missed miscarriage at 6 weeks and had a natural miscarriage and everything passed and that was 12-12-07 - still no period - was told by my OB that I should get a period in 4 weeks - next Monday will be 3 weeks since the miscarriage - so I'm still waiting.

I had a miscarriage on 12/2 (I was 16 weeks pregnant) and I just started my period today.  The weird thing is that usually I know when it's going to start, but this time I didn't get PMS so I wasn't sure.  Only one more cycle to go after this one and then we can try again.  :-)

It really depends on the amount of HCG in your system, Your body won't ovulate again until your HCG is back down to normal, and once you ovulate you'll get your period about two weeks later. I've had two miscarriages, and both times I got my first period again about 4-5 weeks after. However, some of the women on here have had to wait up to 8 weeks, so it really depends...

Sorry to hear about your loss!
