> bleeding while taking fenugreek -- other post-partum bleeding

I seem to recall reading on Kellymom that for some women, bleeding can occur at 4 to 6 weeks, that is light and is not a period.  I tried finding the reference but couldn't just now.  It said that women who bleed at this time may have an earlier that usually return of menses.  I wonder if this could be the body's adjustment to having an even lower drop in estrogen levels at that time.

On a personal note, I did have some light bright bleeding that reminded me of breakthrough bleeding at about 6 weeks, I was on domperidone at the time and had taken fenugreek but was no longer taking it.  It lasted a short time and then I did not have my periods return until 9 months after I had attempted to night wean on the recommendation of a friend.....  thanks, got my period back and the night weaning didn't work.
