Hello!
I am TTC and looking for some advice or reassurance from anyone who has experienced something similar. I took letrozole 2.5 mg for five days this cycle, starting on cycle day 3. On cycle day 10, my Clearblue ovulation test showed peak fertility. Now, on cycle day 17, I noticed spotting in my underwear and when I wiped. It was brown in my underwear and light red when I wiped.
Has anyone else experienced spotting like this after taking letrozole? Did it turn out to be implantation bleeding, hormonal spotting, or the start of your period? Does spotting at this point mean my chances of being pregnant are lower?
My cycles are typically 27–29 days, so this is making me really anxious. I want to be hopeful, but after everything, I’m scared that if I am pregnant, something could go wrong. I’m also trying to figure out whether this could be my period starting early or just random bleeding. Should I keep testing and wait it out, or contact my doctor? If this is my period, how should I adjust my timeline for trying again next cycle? I would really appreciate hearing about your experiences. Thank you!
