Hi ladies! Hubby and I are going into cycle 4 of TTC (month 6) and we are going to give soy isoflavones a try this time around. I will be taking 100mg cd 3-7 starting tomorrow. Is anyone else taking soy this cycle? Anyone trying it for the first time like me? Or does anyone have a soy success story to give me hope?? Lookin for a few buddies

Hi - I'm just popping over to ttc forum from the toddler forum (oh & I are planning to ttc#2 soon) and I thought you ladies might like a success story to spur you on?

I have pcos & have no periods when not on combined pill. I took 120mg of soy isoflavones from cd 4-8 and the first month I did that I ov'd & got a bfp. I hadn't ovulated for 10 mths so I'm pretty damn sure the soy did its job for me. The only side effect I remember when taking the tablets was feeling much hotter than usual.

Sending all you lovely ladies lots of baby dust. Hopefully I'll be back in ttc very soon

 

[Ttc 2nd baby]

Wow Thanx for the success story hopefully we can all join u with lots more success stories

We're u doing anything else ir did u just take the tablets ?

I'm always exhausted while taking soy. Thought it was just me. On the nights that I take it I get a very good nights sleep but I also have crazy dreams.

I had a sleep this afternoon after being out this morning... lol.... thank god, it's Saturday! I haven't noticed crazy dreams though.... I get those during TWW though!

Hi ladies help me out here when doing the smep would it b bad to bd twice in one day ? Oh and I r goin out tonight n I hav s good feelin he is gonna want bd :/ should I just go for it lol never thought I would contemplate turnin down sex web ttc

I tried pretty much everything out there! I think that cycle I also took high quality fish oil supplements before I ov'd (I was temping) and then I used natural progesterone cream after I ov'd. Provera & the progesterone cream were the only ways I'd have a period in 10mths! Like I said earlier, I have pcos too & those additional things were specifically to tackle that after lots of research. Hth

I'm taking low dose aspirin , pregnacare conception vitamins, soy, and of they ever arrive ov sticks. I tried doing temp but kept sleeping past the time or wakin too early lol.

I didn't do anything special with my first only thing I did was vitamins and I did use a gel to regulate ph balance so may try that again.

Iv got poly cystic so may give the things u suggested a try x

You're welcome hun!

I used this one https://www.progesterone.co.uk/progesteronecream.htm

There's loads of info on the site but it is basically the hormone (or synthetic equivalent maybe??) that builds the womb lining - this happens naturally after ov unless your hormones aren't very good at doing their job (as in my case!). If I used a tiny amount just rubbed into different body areas (thigh, inner arm, neck etc) twice a day for a week & then stopped - I'd get a bleed to restart my cycle. I had confirmed annovulatory cycles when I started using it & it should ONLY be used in cycles AFTER you're SURE you ov'd otherwise it will stop ov. I was temping so knew I hadn't except for my last cycle - I had to keep using the cream for the first 13 wks of preg so there wasn't a sudden drop in the hormone. So if you want to use it I'd strongly recommend you research it & make sure you need it. No health professional ever condoned my use!

If you do get periods you probably don't need it.

I slept into 3pm today and had a headache earlier but feeling ok now! Hoping I ovulate soon!

 

[MrsChaffin]
