What is this?

Ok since having rny in april my periods haven't regulated but I think it' s mostly in part b/c of the bcp. I took them for 2 months then I stopped them b/c they made me spot for like a month. Anyways Now when my period comes it's only like 4 maybe 5 days and only like 1 heavy day. In the past it was like 6-8 days and several heavy days. Also I have noticed (tmi ahead) this kinda mucusy discharge. I mean like haning out of me after I use the potty..I warned you it was tmi. The only thing I can think of it when I read that Taking charge of your fertility book, years ago it said something about that kind of discharge around ovulation, right. I dunno I was just hoping someone, anyone would have some experience with this. Any help would be appreciated. tia

It could be that your body is starting to regulate itself. With the weight loss your cycles can change and that might be why it is shorter. And yes the mucusy discharge could be a sign of ovulation.

The mucus usually is a sign of ovulation. Specially if it is mid cycle. My cycles are more regular now than ever before. Has surgery in March of 2008. Pretty sure if not for the IUD we would have another baby. Anyway, the mucus is probably ovulation. They say once you have surgery that pregnancy can happen even for those that have tried for years with no luck. Specially with PCOS. Didnt think so, but I cycle regularly now. Which is totally off for me.
 THe good thing about this site is there is never tmi, we are all here to read and help if possible. Best of luck. If you dont want to get pregnant yet, be sure you are using something. THat is also something that I was warned about before surgery that I didnt think I would have to worry about. Glad I did the IUD anyway. Cant imagine haven a baby this early post op. SOrry got off topic, but.......
