Hi Ladies,
I'm new to these boards, and after reading all the good things about Femaprin I decided to give it a try.
I've been taking it since 07/15 and yesterday I started spotting like others have experienced. (no cramps but I did notice EWCM on the 07/19)
I was wondering, for those of you who experienced the spotting, how long did it last, did it turn out to be AF? I'm a little worried about some of the stories, especially the never-ending period one.
I had 7 days weird brown discharge, and bright red spotting, then it just stop. I am now on day 26 of my cycle and I thing I am gearing of for AF my cervical mucus is more normal ands less erratic ..In addition, I have cramps..., which I never get with my other cycle unless I am on the pill... I will keep you posted
I think I may be the one you're talking about with the never ending AF? I had spotting, then dark brown flow for several days and then it turned into bright red flow. AF then lasted 13 days and I spotted after that for 2 days. I have been having EWCM and watery cm and ovulation pain for the last 3 days so I'm hoping that means I'm ovulating. I chalked the really heavy and long AF up to not having one in so long. So sorry if I scared you.
Thank you both for taking the time to answer.
I also haven't had AF in so long (a little over a year) so I'm happy that something is finally happening ! I really wouldn't mind having a good AF because my body needs the cleanse but this spotting is a little confusing !
About 2 weeks ago I had the EWCM and thought i may be ovulating but then forgot all about it until the spotting started 3 days ago !
Today I still have brown spotting, small clots and maybe some cramps too but they're not near as bad as usual AF cramps...
Ladybug, that's exciting, it sounds like the Femaprin is definitely doing something !
Hi Ladybug,
I had a couple days spotting then only one day of really light flow and spotting again. All this only lasted 6 days. I was expecting really bad cramps and heavy flow since it's been a year but this has to be the least painful AF I've ever had ! I feel relieved because I have to start a new job tomorrow
I'm surprised I only took Femaprin for 4 days before I ovulated...might just be a coincidence, I don't know, but I hope AF will come visit next month too !
Btw, It sounds like u ovulated that's great news, how long have u been taking Femaprin ?
Congrats on the new job! I really hope I did ovulate. I've been taking Femaprin since June 19th, so going on 2 months. I'm getting ready to order some more of it. I've also lost about 10 lbs since May, so I'm excited about that too.
I have been taking it for a tad longer than a month. I always pretty much bleed. From July 31st until today (and counting) I have not bled! That's 10 days straight, no blood. No pink, no spotting, nothing. It's great! I really hope this is the start to a regular cycle.

So I am on CD 23 today (I think because I had one day of red harsh spotting...not a flow really) and I am getting tingly breasts and a bit of cramps...just a bit every now and then!
Im wondering if I am ovulating or if an actual AF is on its way...or could I even be preggers without having a full AF?
I have been on Femaprin for almost 60days now because I am almost finished by bottle of 60 pills....
hmmm
what yall think?

Hey hun,
I'd say that any of the above are possibilities. Similar to you, my bb's are sore and I have been having cramping/pinching feelings for a week or so, but according to my FF chart I didn't O, so I'm pretty sure I'm not pg. Do you know if you O'd? If you did around CD15-16ish, what you're feeling does fit with early pg symptoms from what I've read (does any of it feel similar to your first pregnancy?). Or you could, like you said, just be gearing up for AF. I hope you either get a BFP or full AF! (Praying for the same for myself!!! )

I am sorry!! what test did you take??? have you had a AF any of these 5 months?? do you think femaprin has helped at all?
hey capecoral28
thank you ..i cant remember what all the tests were ( i have a shocker of a memory) . but she said to me that my progestrone levels were extremelly low , and that there are no signs of ovulation at all .
then she told me that i have osteo arthritis , not a good day .
no i havent had an AF in 4 yrs , i was on the pill for 2 months in 07 and i had it then . and i had a D&C last yr in may and bleed for just 2 days , and havent had anything since
she wants me to go back on the pill , but i want it to come back naturally .
for me no femaprin hasnt helped me yet..im still hoping it will , but that hope is fading i have to say
How's everyone doing with the Femaprin? I'm now on CD 29 and having LOTS of creamy CM. I'm hoping that I O'd around 10 days ago, but since I wasn't temping and am only going by CM, I really am hoping.
