Do you have PCOS Brandy?

 

[Chook]

Hey everyone, busy day so just a quick message to let you know that my beta went from 87 to 227 so it's doubled in 35 hours!!! Yay
I will catch up on everyone else soon xox

Do you have PCOS Brandy?

Nope. Most clinics would have cancelled my cycle as my estrogen hit about 6000 at retrieval. My doctor was fine with and did the ER and the et all while I had ohss.

Glad it ended up working for me but in the future if I stimms again I will ask for 125 or less to start.

yayy chook!!! thats awesome!

i still havent started AF...ive just had the brown discharge for 4 days now! i think its about to go away...still no sign of AF though...i thought for sure i would have started because my nipples started to hurt...but they stopped. idk. called the doctor and they said if i wanted to wait and see if i do start AF then we can do that...if i dont start they can give me premetrium....that will help start my period. i told them i will wait a week and then test again...and maybe get a blood test to and make sure.

 

[Chook]

Thanks girls! I think we are still in shock.
How is everyone else doing?

Hello Ladies,
Hope you don't mind if I pop in here and ask a question. I'm currently on round 2 of femara. My last round was monitored and I ovulated on CD18. This time I'm on CD17, but DH and I have both been ill and DTD has been out of the question. Have I still a chance this month DTD tonight?

Absolutely! If you can the best days to DTD is the 2 days leading up to O and the day of O

are you using OPKs or monitoring this cycle?

Chook!!!!! That is fantastic! Big congrats! Great numbers!

GL tommy! If you haven't o'd yet and you can still get 1 in, I think you've got a shot! Hope you feel better soon!

Hi ladies! Mind if I join? I am on my first cycle of Femara. I did 6 cycles of clomid and only ovulated 4 out if the 6 and 2nd cycle I got my bfp but ended at 6 weeks (twins). I am seeing a new RE and he wants me to try femara. I had my first scan today (CD 5) to make sure I wasn't responding too well. All my follies were still small, which was expected this early. I go in again on CD 9 to see if anything is happening. He started me out on 5 mg because of my pcos and history of poor ovulation. It took 200 mg of clomid and 2000 mg of metformin to get me to O. I don't know what to expect, I'm hoping this works for us as we have been trying for 7 1/2 years.

Oh, huge congrats Chook! I'm sure you are just over the moon. So happy for you!

Wow, that's crazy. You do just respond super well it sounds like. Glad it worked though, and doubly well too!

So strange Sugar. Do you normally have fairly regular cycles?

 

[sugarpi24]

I have had normal cycles for the past 6 months or more with the medication...but when I went off bcp my cycles were hit and miss....but I usually got the brown stuff at the begininng for maybe a day and then af would show...buy I'm still getting the brown stuff ever since Tuesday night. So like I told the nurse idk if I even have a chance of being pregnant becuaee I'm not even sure if I ovulated but this whole thing has got my hopes up and I'm really emotional right now and my mom callled about my gma going to the er and not sure what's really wrong with her and there's a possibility it could be cancer just very down in the dumps today I hope my grandma is okay and I hope my irregular cycles aren't starting up. Now that I'm off meds

Aww I am sorry I honestly dont know what to make of your cycle I wish I had some knowledge to help but I do not. I just wish you the very best though and hope everything is alright with your grandmother.

 

[Prayerful]

Oh, Sugar, I am so sorry things are going so poorly for you right now. I will keep you and your grandmother in my prayers.
