Clear Blue Fertility Monitors & PCOS

[buddysmomma]

Okay I have some questions. A little info, I have PCOS to the EXTREAME! Took provera to induce AF! Also been on Vitex for almost 2 months. On CD 2-7 did 200mg of SOY! Have had some (TMI) EWCM for the past two days. BD last night. Dont temp bc of work issues. I have been using OPKS for a little while now and every single one I take, even before starting AF i will ALWAYS get a line, not sure if its bc of the vitex or what. Has thishappend to anyone else.

Anywyas my question is, I am bidding on a CBFM and hopin this will help. So have any of u pcosers used this to conceive? Did any of u get lines on an opk that where just fake, and then use a CBFM and get successful with it? Looking for sucess stories and lots and lots of info on them!!!!

Hi did not want to just read and run, i have pcos and so far not had any success with any ovulation testing kits, always get false readings telling me I was ovulating when in fact I have not ovulated this year according to my bloods that my gp takes, he also advised that they only way to know is to temp...

I really wouldn't bother with OPKs hun, they are not meant for us PCOS gals The EWCM is def a fab sign hun, keep that BDing going

so do u all just mean the opks dont work? So what about the clear blue fertility monitor for PCOS gals? Do they work for us? Or do they also give false +? Also Im not so sure if he soy has gave me the ewcm but last night it was very very (TMI) stringgy and would stretch! DANG IT...i ran outta OPKS. LOL. hahha, bu how would I know if it was really telling me the truth...from getting all those stinky false +`s/

I wouldn't bother with the CBFM, the best way to know if you're ovulating is to take your temp first thing in the morning, you can get a digital one which I think is the best. I leave mine by the side of the bed so i take my temp before i gte out of bed - it's meant to be the best way. I then use a fertility chart to monitor my temp for the month. It's shown that i've ovulated the last 3 months when the CBOS didn't show anything.
best of luck x
