When should you ovulate after a miscarriage?

Question

I have heard that you can ovulate 14 days after a miscarriage. Should I be counting 14 days after day one of bleeding or 14 days from when the bleeding stopped?

Answer 1

Best thing to do is go buy an ovulation kit or count the days like u said and go have a bloodtest to confirm the day on which ovulation starts. This is the most accurate way of telling you when it is likely to happen. The doctor should also be able to tell u how long your cycle is and from that u can guess the day on which u will ovulate yourself.

The obvious signs are watery discharge and a change in body temperature(it goes up a few degrees). You have 3 days ideally when you can have quality time as these days are your best chances to conceive.

Sorry about your loss, im sure with time and patience you will go on to have another baby
Good luck

Answer 2

You can ovulate right after a miscarriage ("right after" in this case usually being 8-20 days), but you may not. Some women only ovulate 2-3 *months* after a miscarriage. Every woman is different.

So, no, you shouldn't count. In fact, counting is *never* helpful, as most women ovulate about 2 weeks (usually 12-16 days) before their *next* period. Since there is a pretty wide range *and* you have to count backwards, numbers alone aren't going to help...unless you have found a way to have a period, then go back!

If you want to know when you are about to ovulate, you need to chart signs of fertility. Please read _Taking Charge of Your Fertility_ by Toni Weschler to learn how to do this. You can use it from the first cycle you have to determine if and when you are ovulating, and, more importantly, when you are *approaching* ovulation.

your health after miscarriage

HCG Levels
Most women can expect their levels to return to a non-pregnant range about 4 - 6 weeks after a pregnancy loss has occurred. This can differentiate by how the loss occurred (spontaneous miscarriage, D&C procedure, abortion, natural delivery), and how high the levels were at the time of the loss.
Health care providers usually will continue to test HCG levels after a pregnancy loss to ensure they return back to 5.0.

tiredness
It is normal to feel emotionally and physically drained following a miscarriage. If possible take a few days off work, and if you can't, make sure you get to bed early, plan rests where possible and postpone anything that isn't urgent.
Make yourself your first priority.

bleeding
If your miscarriage is complete, you can expect your bleeding to taper off rapidly, i.e. over the next week it should get lighter and lighter and stop. All bleeding and spotting should have stopped by seven days. If it persists or is heavier than a normal period, this indicates something is wrong, see your doctor. While you are still bleeding it is important that you shower, not bath, and that you do not swim in public pools because of the risk of contracting an infection.

pain
When the miscarriage is complete, or after a D&C all pain should cease. Again, see your doctor if you have continuing pain.

temperature
Temperature indicates infection which can result in infertility. If you have one see your doctor urgently. You will be treated with antibiotics and possibly a D&C (or repeat D&C).

discharge
If you are having an offensive discharge this could also indicate infection so get checked out.

lactation
This is normal if the pregnancy has lasted longer than 12 weeks and will stop by itself.

menstrual cycle
Ovulation can occur 14 days after a miscarriage with the next period 28 days after the miscarriage, but there is great personal variation. It may take a few cycles before your regular pattern is re-established. This means that you can become pregnant 14 days after a miscarriage if you resume a normal cycle immediately, but there is a great personal variation. It can take up to 6 or 7 weeks for your next period to come if you had "natural" miscarriage (i.e. no D&C or tablets).

sex
Sexual intercourse should be avoided until bleeding has stopped to prevent the risk of infection. Even though your cervix will be closed again, sperm can travel up through it and introduce infection into the uterus, which is still healing.

contraception
If you do not wish to become pregnant immediately, you should start using contraception straight after the miscarriage. Note: The pill should be commenced at the time of the miscarriage. You will not be safe until you have taken the tablets for 14 days.

the physical symptoms of grief
Many women find they experience physical symptoms of grief as well as the emotional aspects. These vary greatly from person to person, and include:
disturbed sleep and eating patterns
unexplainable tiredness
unexpected tears
disturbing dreams and mental confusion

Be gentle and patient with yourself during this time and take comfort in knowing that these symptoms are normal.

Sorry for your loss

Answer 4

I didn't. But I also didn't before that. I had to take clomid. I've read alot and they say you will have your period at about 6 -8 weeks after, so that means you would ovulate anywhere from 4-6 weeks. I know you are going through such a hard time. I wish you luck and hope you have a baby soon on the way!!!

Answer 5

I am 46years old got preg naturally and I I just had a miscarriage on july 3 and I ovulated 14 days after...just like before.Hoping to get preg. again!. good Luck!

Answer 6

I am very sorry for your loss.

Doctors usually advise that you should wait until you have had one period before trying again. You will find it easier to work out when you will ovulate if you do this too.

Best of luck for the future.

Answer 7

Now everyone can cure infertility using this natural remedy http://pregnancyhelps.info
infertility can run in the family and one of the first things the doctor asks you when you go to a fertility clinic is your family history regarding cases of infertility or other reproductive issues.
If infertility is caused by genetic disorder then it's not unusual that one of the kids (your mom) doesn't have it and another does (your aunt).
two months of trying is still to early to be concerned about the fact that you might be infertile and it's also quite early to go to a fertility specialist. Go to a regular Obgyb to get a closer insight and see what ways there are are to improve your fertility rate.
Also remove alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes from your life because they might influence your chances too. Stress is also a risk factor when it comes to infertility.
