hi all can i join?

I have PCOS also. Today is CD 13 for me and I got my first ever smiley on my clear blue digital advanced OPK!

They test for LH and estrogen so the reading is accurate.

I just skimmed through all of the posts and I see a lot of frustration. When having PCOS our OPK's can be confusing.

I got the CBD advanced OPK. It is geared toward women with PCOS so we don't have to deal with that frustration anymore. It checks for LH and Estrogen so there is no more guess work. It gives your true high fertile days and your PEAK fertility day.

It was about $50 bucks but well worth it to get a no question negative because the face would be blank. And a no question high fertility smiley face.

I have gotten almost positive OPK's, the ones with the lines, used this and got a complete, and utter negative. May want to look into it.

One test a day, FMU! How great!

Hi love!! That's great that you have a smiley face on cd13! Specially as you have pcos like me good luck with your ovulation!! I might look into those if I don't get a clear positive and ff says I have ovulated. , they do look good!
Loraloo he finishes his night shift at 6am, gets into bed about 6.30am and passes out from tiredness!

Cd20. 8pm, getting closer??

 

[LoraLoo]

Id test again around 10pm hun, and first thing in morn, I know they say morn isn't ideal but I get my surge in the morning so it's fine. Id bd tonight if you can, and tell him to poke you awake when he finishes his night shifts 😉

 

[dinky]

We can't bd tonight he's already at work he does 12 hour shifts and left 3 hours ago! So maybe in the morning when he comes in if he's not tired we can sneak some in! He will of been awake 24 hours though so I'm not hopeful lol

Cd20. 10pm, still not positive but not far off! Hoping for a bfp tomorrow!!

Looking good Dinky!

Did this one just now, it's literally done with a tiny bit of urine because I went to the toilet this morning and totally forgot to test, so did this one about 15 mins later so I'm not counting it. I'll do another one about 2pmish, my opks are in the bedroom and dp will be in bed till about then and I don't want to wake him up

 

[LoraLoo]

How annoying!

 

[dinky]

Cd21. So annoyed really thought they would be positive today as they were soo dark yesterday!!

 

[Holliems]

Do you normally have long cycles??

 

[dinky]

My cycles are normally around 35 days, last one was 34 days, the one after my d&c was 38 days

Question ladies. I woke up last night and took my temp at 97.7 and then I woke up this morning at 930 am which is late for me and took it before I got out of bed and it was 98.4! And it is still 98.4. So does that mean anything?

It will be higher because it is later in the day. When do you normally temp? How long were you asleep before the second temp?

Your chart and OPK sticks are saying your hormones are out of whack from the PCOS. What are you doing for your PCOS?

 

[Dtrisha]

I was asleep for 3 hours and my first temp was like 230 am

 

[dinky]

I'm not doing anything for the pcos, I've conceived once with clomid then twice naturally and whenever I take things to try and help my cycle I seem to get horrible side effects so I'm not going to mess with my hormones anymore just going to leave it to nature!
Just done a opk and it's dark again! Do I dare believe tomorrow's might be positive again??

 

[dinky]

Just been to the toilet and when I wiped there was blood there!! I don't know if it's ovulation spotting or af, I'm gutted! I've never had ovulation bleeding before and never had a cycle this short either so I don't know what's going on
