Bleeding & Spotting During ovulation: – When to be concerned

Posted on by Reviva Fertility

Bleeding & Spotting During ovulation: – When to be concerned

Ovulation occurs when the ovary releases an egg and some women experience bleeding & spotting around the time they are ovulating, which is normal occurrence. In fact, it’s fairly common for women to spot or bleed some point in their menstrual cycles. But when should you be concerned about the bleeding during ovulation?

( This blog post will explore the signs that indicate when ovulation spotting or bleeding is normal and when it is a sign of concern. it will also discuss the next steps that you can take if you are concerned about bleeding & spotting during ovulation.)

What is ovulation spotting?

Light vaginal bleeding that can occurs during before or after ovulation. (Not every woman has spotting during ovulation).

Ovulation bleeding occurs when there is a change in hormone levels. For example: estrogen levels decreases before woman starts ovulating and as a results, this causes endometrial to shed.

You may also experience other symptoms of ovulation such as :-

  • Breast soreness and tenderness
  • Lower abdominal or pelvic pain
  • Increased sexual desire
  • Bloating
  • Changes in your body basal temperature
  • Increased heart Rate

When does ovulation bleeding occur?

When you are ovulating, an ovary releases an egg and this occurs in the middle of your menstrual cycle between 11-12 days after the first day of your last period. Women do not always ovulate on the same days, as it depends on the length of their cycle.

When is spotting during ovulation considered normal?

Some signs that can help you determine whether your bleeding during ovulation is normal or a cause for concern.

  • First of all, it’s essential to keep in mind that ovulation bleeding occurs only once during each cycle.
  • Before you start ovulating, you experience an increase in estrogen levels, which then drop after ovulation. As a results progesterone levels rise for 5 days.
  • The fluctuation in E2 & P4 is what causes ovulation spotting.
When bleeding during ovulation is a sign of concern?
Heavy, severe and prolonged bleeding, we recommend seeing a doctor to provide you with diagnosis.
SOME HEALTH CONDITIONS CAN CAUSE BLEEDING BETWEEN PERIODS:
  • Premature spotting
  • PCOS
  • Ectopic pregnancy
  • Bloating
  • Thyroid issues
  • Kidney or liver disease
Spotting between periods can also be a sign of infection. If you have a sexually transmitted infection (STI) such as gonorrhea and Chlamydia, you have a high chance of having light bleeding.

Early RIF : In this , embryo fail to implant shortly after being transferred into the uterus.

Late RIF:– In this type , when the embryos implant initially but result in early miscarriage or failed development soon after implantation.

Causes of RIF:-

  • Embryo related factors: Chromosomal Abnormalities (poor embryo quality).
  • Urine Factors: urine abnormalities or structural tissues – endometrial receptivity tissues , chronic endometriosis or infections.
  • Hormonal factors: Hormonal imbalances affecting the menstrual cycle-thyroid disorders or diabetes.
  • Lifestyle and environmental factors: Smoking or substance abuse –poor diet and nutrition – stress and excessive physical activity.

Fresh VS Frozen Embryo Transfers: An Explanation through Comparisons

Posted on by Reviva Fertility

Fresh VS Frozen Embryo Transfers: An Explanation through Comparisons

Fresh embryo transfers were the only option when In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) was initially introduced due to the limited progress in cryopreservation techniques.

Fresh & Frozen Embryo Transfers

However, over the past years, significant advancements in:

  • Cryopreservation
  • Culture Media
  • Reproductive Technologies

Nowadays Generally FET’s are preferred depending upon various factors: -

  • Age of couple
  • No of oocytes received
  • Quality of embryos
  • Hormonal parameters
  • Adequacy of endometrial lining

Fresh & Frozen Embryo Transfers

Understanding the Differences

Fresh Embryo Transfer

  • It is typically scheduled for 3 days or 5 days after the eggs are collected from the patient.
  • Fresh embryo transfer allows for a shorter time between egg retrieval & transfer into the uterus, increasing the chances of conception.
  • However, certain cases where fresh embryo transfer is not recommended. If the patient progesterone level is high, it can negatively impact the implantation of embryos, making a fresh embryo transfer unsuitable.

Frozen Embryo Transfer

  • A frozen embryo transfer typically takes place around 6-8 weeks after the embryo has been frozen.
  • When the patient is ready for transfer, she will be given medications to stimulate a natural menstrual cycle.
  • The FET date is then coordinated with the cycle to improve the chances of successful implantation. It can also be utilized for future pregnancies.
Embryo Transfer

The Benefits & Drawbacks of Fresh & Frozen Embryo Transfer

Advantages of Fresh Embryo Transfer:

  • The waiting time for fresh embryo transfer is shorter as embryos are transferred soon after fertilization.
  • The embryos are not subjected to the stress of freezing & thawing.
  • Fresh cycle involves the process of ovarian stimulation, which can result in a receptive endometrial lining, if the women is not hyper – responded.

Disadvantages of Fresh Embryo Transfer

  • Ovarian stimulation during fresh cycles may result in OHSS (ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome), a potentially serious condition marked by enlarged & painful ovaries.
  • Fresh transfer is time critical & need to be synchronized with the natural menstrual cycle, providing limited flexibility in terms of timing.

Advantages of Frozen embryo Transfer

  • FET provides a couple who have encountered challenging situations like cancer treatments with the opportunity to have children once their treatments are successfully completed.
  • Reduced risk of ovarian hyperstimulation.
Disadvantages of frozen embryo transfer

  • Not every embryo can withstand the freezing & thawing process, which could lead to a reduced no. of embryos available for transfer.
  • Going through frozen embryo transfer can be quite time consuming.

Factors to consider when deciding between fresh or frozen embryo transfer

  • Personal health
  • Timing flexibility
  • Success rate

Sperm Morphology: Alcohol induced oxidative stress can damage sperm DNA, altering their morphology & increasing the likelihood of genetic abnormalities in off springs.

Sperm Motility: Sperm requires optimal motility to navigate the female reproductive tract and reach the egg. Alcohol and smoking impair this ability reducing the chances of sperm successfully fertilizing the egg.

Erectile Dysfunction: The impact of alcohol and smoking on the nervous system can lead to erectile dysfunction.

Fertility Duration: Regular alcohol consumption can prolong the time it takes for a couple to conceive, increasing the duration of attempting pregnancy.

Seminal fluid composition : Alcohol and Smoking can alter the composition of seminal fluid , which provides essential nutrients to sperm . Changes in this composition can impact sperm function and viability.

The Correlation Between Alcohol & Male Fertility

Social alcohol consumption is widespread, yet its impact on sperm & male fertility varies based on the quantity & frequency of consumption. While moderate drinking may not significantly affect fertility, heavy & consistent alcohol can be determined.

Such drinking patterns can lead to the following:
