CD 101 and no sign of af or beanie

[BobDog]

i'm kind of flipping out now, i should be bald at the rate i'm tugging at my hair.

i know most women would be glad not to have the monthly visit from the witch but i am BEGGING for her to come now! or to finally see those lovely lines, but it's just not happening, i had super faint positives from 16-21dpo and then nothing, had a drs test on 17dpo (maybe it was 16 dpo) ant that was 12.5 so a very early positive, however on 23DPO it was 0.1.

and now they don't know what's going on, i should have had a bleep that week, but nothing (sorry if this is TMI) but that was now months ago, i am well into month 3 of the only cycle of the year! all i want is for something to happen! it's making me so depressed and all this crappy weather is making me even more crappy. but that's not controllable, and apparently nor is my body.

sorry for the gurn but i just hope someone can give me some advice.

i should tell you that i was on provera for 10 days last month and nothing. they even scanned me and my uterus was not even thickening in preperation for AF. and it killed a little of me seeing how empty it was - kind of how i feel at the moment.

dr's, are not willing to try anything else until i see the specialist again at the IVF clinic, and that's not till the end of aug!! i want to cry all the time but i don't want DH to feel any worse than he already does, because i know he is already feeling helpless.

i've tried Soy iso's all sort of vits and lotions and potions. but try and give me a few suggestions so i can see if i've done it or not...??

Jenbrem,
I do not have any advice, I just wanted to say I am sorry about your frustrations.
I hope something happens for you soon

 

[BobDog]

I can't imagine how frustrated and down you must feel hun. I have no idea either. I just wanted to give you a huge virtual hug though and tell you to hang in there A friend of mine had no AF for most of the year and then would suddlenly bleed like crazy. The doctors didn't know what was wrong. In the end, she had a beautiful baby daughter via IVF

Oh hunnie I feel your pain! CD141 for me today!! Just been for a scan and looks like I may have PCOS. Have you been tested for it? x

 

[MariaF]

I have PCOS and could without af for months. I still remember those times....I used go mental. So I totally feel your pain.

Nothing helped me but Provera. But I heard drinking raspberry leaf tea contracts the uterus walls and can lead to af. But then again it won't be true af - just a bleed.

Have you thought about taking Sage leaf capsules? They act as FSH and can often help with stimulatin ovulation and womb lining growth

 

[BobDog]

Yep, i am doomed in the pcos club it seems, have been for at least 10 years now, was diagnosed when i was 16, on my 16th birthday, put a bummer on that day!

so 10 year down the line, and after 4 years of regular 40 day cycles, but for the last year its all gone down hill. i'm tearing my hair out with all this waiting! grrr

I'm not sure what your situation is, but a dear friend of mind also tried Provera to induce her period and it did not work and the doctor told her to try gaining a little weight and that might help - my friend is a little underweight. Just a thought.

Regardless, I'm so sorry for your position. It is so frustrating feeling like you have no control over your own body and what it is or is not doing. Hang in there. Have you considered accupuncture? I haven't tried it, but I have heard of a lot of women having success with that. Could be worth a shot?

Hi did af come? just wondering if it did and how did you get it to come? I am CD101 today and agree with the hair pulling

 

[BobDog]

hi Lily7, nope no sign of AF yet, and no sign of my lines! grrr! i've had 3 positive O tests, but not actually ovulating, they have been a number of weeks apart. getting more and more frustrated. the dr won't give me provera because i'm going to be going for IVF in september so it's a catch 22 really!! if i ask for provera then my IVF will be pushed back 2 months for some reason. and i don't want that to happen i guess nature has her way of doing things.

i'm sorry you are in the same boat with the long cycles, it sucks doesn't it!

xx

 

[Lily7]

Hi Jenbrem, yes you are right, it really does suck I think you are prob best not trying to force it then, it's such a long process as it is without having your ivf pushed back any further, I know what you mean about the OPk's I almost always get a near positive OPK even though I'm not ovulating either.

I wish you all the best for your upcoming ivf, I truly do.

I would not wish any of this on my worst enemy.

Dear all, I know exactly how it feels. I am ttc#1 for more than 2 yrs now. I have super long screwed up cycles too (OB said: mild case of pcos..but i doubt it). Now i am on cd81 and who knows how long this cycle is going to be The worst part is that i bleed for the first 30-40 days continuously. To top it off my dh also have low count, low motility and low morph. The final verdict was ivf with icsi. We decided to wait and try for some more time holding our faith and believing some miracle will happen!!!
The stories here gives me such hope. Good luck with ur IVF Jen
