i had a d&c on march 27. i went 10 weeks without a period and my doctor put me on birth control for a month to get my period. i'm irregular and last week i thought i was ovulating because of some mucusy discharge. a couple of days ago i had some spotting when i wiped and thought i was getting my period. well three days later nothing. i have a little cramping could i possibly be pregnant?
Hello, Since you have irregular menstruation, it is difficult to predict your ovulation pattern. Either a recording of basal body temperature from day one of the cycle to show rise of temperature at the time of ovulation and/or follicular studies help to detect ovulation. So, in the current scenario, you may opt for the detection of the serum beta-hCG titres followed by a trans-vaginal sonogram to confirm/exclude pregnancy. If negative, hormone supplements may be given to attain a proper withdrawal. Ovulation should be studied and further management planned. Hope this helps.
