it took me 7 weeks to get my period back after my first MC. i am sorry for your loss. i had 2 of them and know just how you feel. if you do not get your period back after 6 weeks, you can call the doctor and maybe get an appointment just to make sure your body expelled everything and or maybe you could be pregnant again. many women on this forum got pregnant again after a MC without even having a period,
I would follow up with the doctor to make sure your HCG levels are back to being negative for pregnancy, to make sure all the tissue is out. It can take 4-8 weeks to get your period back (or longer, like me). Good luck!
Im so sorry for your loss. It very well could be the mc causing your period to be off, it took me 3 months to get mine back after i mc in dec.
Yes, my doctor said it can take between 4-8 weeks before you get your next cycle, and of course if your using no protection it increases chances of preganacy becuase you can also get preggo from pre-***. It might help if you get some literature from your ob doc regarding preganacy and m/c. I had my first child at 19 and really didnt have a clue of what was going on. Now that im 32 i have a better concept of what to expect. Also you can always goggle stuff online. This is also a good forum because a lot of women have been threw many experiences and can give good advice, info etc., there is almost something new i learn every week by chating and reading these forums. Im anemic my self and i take an iron pill every day, when i got preggo i took iron pill and prenatal because my iron levels were still low. Let us no how things go with your doc when you have next appt.
Well, it could be both. I was like you, always had a 28 day cycle, but I have had 2 miscarriages and my cycles have never returned to my normal. But, if your miscarriage was completed more than 8 weeks ago, you should return to your doctor. Hopefully, they followed up after your miscarriage to check to make sure that your hCG level fell below 5.
On the otherhand, since you are not using protection, there is a chance that you are pregnant. You might want to consider taking a pregnancy test. If you are anemic, are you taking a pre-natal or an iron supplement? If you are anemic, this could pose problems in pregnancy. So, you might want to consider taking a pre-natal vitamin "just in case" ;)
If you miscarry, your cycle is not going to carry on the way it did as if the miscarriage never happened. It can take months to get back on track, and some people even ovulate 2 weeks after a miscarriage, as if the miscarriage was like a period.
So there is a chance your body is taking it's time to get back on track, but also a chance that you could be pregnant again if you do not use any protection.
Let us know what happens!
