[LolaM]

Checking in: I got a waiting on the nurse to call to see what this protocol will be

awwww...sorry[

 

[Mommyagain]

last cycle I got a positive opk and my progesterone indicated I did not ovulate. So I dnt believe opk's

Hello! How long after the positive opk did they do the bloodwork? During one of my clomid cycles I got a positive opk on cd18 and my cd bw (cd21)was under 5 (I would have to look it up to see what it was). The nurse I spoke to said I for sure didnt ovulate and getting bw done again wouldnt matter. But I insisted and went in for bw again a few days later my level was over 7. So I did ovulate that cycle. They just hadnt timed my bw right. Not saying this is your case but you never know.

Chiles....Im sorry I just saw you got a BFN.

 

[Chook]

It's a hot sunny day here in Australia so I'm off for a swim and some down time before the silly season really hits!!! P.s sorry for my lack of replying I'm the words slowest typer! I never really used computers till I found this site but I'm getting faster lol

Hello ladies. I am on cd7 today of my very first letrozole cycle. I am on 5mg cd3-7 then starting opks on cd11. Then when I get my lh surge to start progesterone suppositories four days later. Im not really sure what to expect from this medication. I consider myself a clomid expert...lol (Ive done 12 cycles total over the years) but this is new territory. Just wanted to introduce myself a little.

Welcome! I did 2 cycles of clomid, my coworkers got a kick out of what i was calling my "clomid brain" . I sat behind a stalled car for lord knows how long before other cars started coming down the street and going AROUND me, when i looked back at the car infront of me, i realized it had its 4 ways on who knows how many green lights i missed, just sittin there, mindin my own bidness, waiting for the car in front of me to move!
I was diagnosed with uterus dydelphis so clomid is OUT for me, now im on femara and letrozole. We shall see how it goes but so far it seems to be working. Just have to hope my progesterone levels went up, they were very low 2 months ago on my first round of clomid!

Wow! It takes a week for me to get my bloodwork results back!

 

[Chiles]

Anywho I just got a call from freedom fertility and my injectables costs $24 after co pay. Compared to $500 etc. My trigger will be $9/ compared to $65. I love saving money!!!! Who knows, maybe I want need them Will test in the morn.

Hi Ladies! Can you add me to this list? I'm finally posting in here, although I've lurked forever.

Its CD 29 for me (although I expect AF any minute now, so it will probably become CD 1). I'm just finishing up my second month of Femara 2.5 days 3-7. I took a hpt this morning 15 days after my first IUI and got a BFN, so I'm just waiting for AF...booo!

For a little background, this next cycle will be cycle 19 of ttc. I ovulate on my own every month and hubby's swimmers are good, but we are just not getting the job done. So, Femara and IUI is supposed to make it happen...maybe next month.

Oh, and I ovulate on Femara on CD 13 or 14 -- just like I did withoud meds.

Sorry for blabbering on!

 

[LolaM]

ok...my OPK was technically negative but i see 2 lines so Ima and hope that "A meets B and makes C". I ovulate, hubs has good , we seem to be having trouble completing the transaction.

 

[Chiles]

Good Luck Ladies

Hello s08 ... welcome friend Are you monitored? What are your follicles like withe femara? I don't always ovulate on my own but the odd months I do, apparently. Goodluck on your next cycle!

@Chiles - yay! for saving money. My DH got a message from our insurance too ... we might get some assistance too

Cooch! you found us .. hahahaha! Good to see you on here.
