I guess I'm not really sure where I belong on these forums anymore. I find the normal TTC far too depressing and even the TTC after a loss is hard for me to be a part of now.
We were NTNP since my son was born 18 months ago. When he was about 9 months, we were thrilled to find out we were pregnant again. At my 10 week appointment I found out it was a blighted ovum and ended up getting a D&C at 12 weeks.
We've been actively trying since the D&C 8 months ago and haven't had any luck.
I have been having spotting sometimes as early as 6 days before my period. The two times I've been pregnant, I didn't have any spotting so I feel as if it's related.
I'm trying to wait the full year after the D&C to go to the doctor so that it will be covered by insurance, but it's been a long depressing wait.
I know my mom had severe endometriosis and I've had a lot of symptoms of that. The doctor also noticed a small complex cyst on my ovary at the ultrasound so hopefully it's not an issue.
I've been taking a vitamin B complex and vitamin C to help with the spotting but it hasn't made any difference. I don't think it's a progesterone issue because I didn't have any spotting or issues when I was pregnant.
I was wondering if anyone else had a problem with spotting and endometriosis? If so, were you able to improve your symptoms with diet changes or supplements? I really just need something new to try.
I apologize if I don't "belong" here but this seemed like the best place to post since we've technically been trying for our second for over a year. We haven't really told anyone about our struggles in real life so I thought this might be a good place to get some frustration out and maybe get some new ideas to try
