A member asked:

Is a 2 day period normal? i lightly spot 2 days prior to flow. use a menstrual cup. missed miscarriage 01/2016 and have been trying to get pregnant.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't be discouraged: A four day menstrual cycle is normal. If your cycle is rhythmic and you have cramps, most likely you are ovulating. Make sure you are taking your prenatal vitamin. If you are overweight or obese, now would be an important time to lose weight. We don't advocate weight loss during pregnancy. Good luck!
