There was this one time that I had experienced spotting midway through my cycle (about 13 days after my periods) and I remember freaking out completely. I hadn’t been on pills nor was I experiencing any kind of other health issues. So before consulting my doctor, I decided to do the obvious- I googled it! I found various websites but Parenthoodbliss website cleared all my doubt on spotting during pregnancy.

I’ll share a summary of what I learnt from the blog and my doctor’s appointment the other day

  • Estrogen is one of the most critical hormones in ovulation.
  • Initially, estrogen is low during your period and rises through the first part of the menstrual cycle.
  • When estrogen reaches its maximum it signals the release of the luteinizing hormone (where the ovary releases an egg).
  • As soon as the luteinizing hormone matches the level of estrogen, there is a swift drop in estrogen that destabilizes the endometrium, the lining of the uterus, and also causes a little shed off the lining.

Spotting during ovulation can be considered as a good indicator that your hormones are functioning as they should. The American Journal of Epidemiology has reported that the levels of estrogen, luteal progesterone, and luteinizing hormone (LH) during ovulation is higher in women who experience mid-cycle ovulation spotting.
