thanks! I know that the majority of miscarraiges are caused by chromosomal abnormalities. I have been wondering though if inhalation of chemicals could have played a part. I spray painted several flower pots in my hallway, ventilation is minimal. I was at the time 3 weeks pregnant, but I did not know it. I was 7w6d when I m/c. I looked at the can afterwards and it warns pregnant woman to stay away. Do you think it is possible that the spray paint could have triggered the m/c?
menstruation after miscarraige
August 21, 2007
Hello. I started a miscarraige on June 21st. I did not have a D & C. I finally stopped bleeding and my hormones returned to normal (below 5) on July 18th. Pre-pregnancy I was fairly normal, with a cycle between 28-33 days every month. It's now been 34 days (I know that hardly qualifies as being late!) but I havent had any signs that I am going to menstruate soon. Is it normal to be irregular following a miscarraige? Or could I possibly have gotten pregnant again that soon? Also, I had trans-vaginal ultrasound following hemorhaging near the end of my m/c. The report notes that I have an ovarian cyst and a question of fibroids. Could either of these things been the cause of my m/c? Is it safe to get pregnant again?

It is safe to get pregnant, and you may truly be (check an hpt and let us know). It can also be a missed period as this can happen, but an ovarian cyst let alone fibroids are unlikely to have been the cause of the miscarriage. Please keep us posted and Good Luck!!!
