RRL when TTC.. (tmi..) Thoughts & questions..

[UberMama]

I find it odd that when my AF is basically over with (I always spot for a day or so following end of actual bleeding) .. that when I drink RRL, my spotting increases and I pass a bunch of clots and such. I just had a chemical pregnancy last week (verrrry early on), and my spotting was very minimal today. But I drank two cups of RRL and bam, spotting dark brown and passing clots about the size of a quarter or so.

Does anyone else notice an increase in what you pass when drinking RRL? I know it tones the uterus and such, but it seems odd that such a small amount could cause me to pass things within hours of drinking it! This has happened three cycles in a row now.

Also, thoughts on drinking 3-4 cups of it per day when TTC? I should O next week, but I'm worried it'll hurt my lining somehow. I know it probably won't but..

I didn't want to read without posting, but I have no experience taking RRL while TTC.  The only time I took it was while PG.  Although, maybe it's just your body ridding itself of 'extras' as your uterine muscles begin to tone?

I tried it for 2 cycles back in sept/oct, 1 cup a day. I want charting yet so I dont know my exact pattern, but I remember my breasts were much more tender, I had a lot of cramping, red spotting & heavier bleeding. I'm not surer if that means ether lining was thicker or what. I'm doing an herbal formula now. Good luck!
