chemical pregnancy - when can I expect to start bleeding?

[Anonymous]

I had positive tests at 12, 13, and 14 dpo, and a negative beta today at 16dpo. My LP is normally 12 days, so I'm 4 days late.

I am heartbroken and I really just want this to be over, but I'm not even spotting.

How long does it take to start bleeding after a chemical pg? The nurse said I should start in the next few days, but I've read it can take weeks. I definitely cannot take a week or two of being in limbo. Is there anything I can do to get AF started (short of a prescription)?

sadly know... I have been through 3 of these awful things and with the first one I started bleeding as soon as I got home from my beta... the other 2 I started bleeding within a few days after beta so around 18 dpo... hope this helps and I am so sorry you are going though this!

Thanks, that give me hope I'll start soon. I'm really sorry you've been through it three times - ugh. This is my first (and hopefully last!) one.
