i have been trying for a baby and had sex around ovulation. i come on my period a day late but my period is not the same as usual. it was really heavy for 24 hours and then stopped for 12 hours then there is only a small amount of blood there now. also i have really bad stomach cramps and stabbing pains at the top part of my stomach just before where my rib cage meets. i normally have a 7 day cycle and i never have any types of pains normally. could this be something to worry about?
Hello, You are having regular periods. Upto +/- 7 days is considered regular periods. But if you feel the amount of blood is heavy / with severe cramps(previously absent)/ dark maroon or brown color/ with brownish discharge - kindly rule out either an infection around uterus (PID) or endometriosis. You have to consult a gynecologist. If infection, you & your partner have to take medicines for it. These problems can be corrected & will not affect your pregnancy prospects.
