I had a miscarriage on Jan. 2nd, no period after 8 weeks. Took Provera for 5 days followed by only very light brown spotting. My doctor said that would be my period. How can I determine if I am ovulating after this "period"? Should I wait for another period for ovulation? I have always had regular periods prior to my miscarriage, why do I not have a regular period now?

Might want to count the brown spotting as day 1 and start using OPKs. Might take a couple months for things to get regular again.

Thank you. I started the OPK's on Monday, and low and behold I had a positive on Tuesday and Wednesday. I have never been so excited. Right when I think my body will never cooperate, something amazing happens. Thanks for your help!

that's great sarah! i was going to say that my 1st period (after d&c, and after provera) was super light...i think it just cleans you out real good ;) SOrry about the miscarriage, but congrats on the ovulation! :) Just keep looking toward the future! I was sooo sad about my miscarriage, but if i wouldn't have miscarried, i wouldn't have had my daughter! (i got pregs 4 months later)...a blessing in disguise! :)

my period was also light after provera, but the following month was back to normal.
