i just wanted to share this with you, i dont know if its a great coincidence or what but i would recommend trying it.

my story - i have pcos and am clomid resistant, because of this i had OD done on 9th july this year and ov naturally 14 days later, great i thought. we concieved and mc very early on but thought perhaps i work now and can try again.

so no ov for the next month and 23 days later i get af, gutted but thought maybe next month, so i keep temping and doing opks and nothing, then i get af again, so im thinking thats it i will ov once and no more, so i was reading up on what can help make me ov, iv tried soy - nothing! agnus castus - nothing! and then read about vit d, this girl was saying she tried it and she ov 10 days later for the first time in years, so i gave it a go and it looks like i have ov yesterday, and guess what, 10 days after i start taking it :shock:

dont know if anyone else has tried it but wanted to share my experience with you. xx
 
OMG this is fab news bumski!! Good luck hun!!!!!
 
well this girl was taking 2000iu a day which is the equivilent of about 20 of the tablets i take so i take 2 in the morn and 2 at night, i think 2 pills = 5ug which is the equivilent to 200iu.

wow iv just confused myself !:wacko:

Thanks hun! May give it a go! I cant have any more clomid until i get hsg done and dh's sa results so worth a try im thinking!!!
Really hope this is it for you xx
 
i'm currently tking vit d but not as much i think, can you take too much vit d?

which days should you take it?

im taking twice the rda on the bottle which i dont think is too much, it equals 400iu a day, but iv seen on holland and barrett they do capsules at 2000iu and 10000iu (i think) so its a tiny amount compared to that.

i take it every day, now iv ov i will cut it down to 200iu a day which should be fine as its good for bones and teeth anyway.

apparantly a lot of women with pcos have a vit d difficiancy (spelling ?) but are not tested for it, i have read quite a bit on research that has been done and the results are quite shocking, for £1 a bottle theres nothing to loose.

would be lovely if it really is as simple as this to help oving, gl if you try it :thumbup:
 
omh thanku for that hun im guna try it now if it works im guna come find u and give u a big hug and i no for a face i do not ovulate at all where did u get your bottle from? xx
 
Hey Bumski, thanks for the tip...it sounds promising! Im def going to give it a go!

Found a good couple of links when googling in case anyone is interested.

Where did you buy your vit D from bumski? Ive noticed that alot of the higher dose tablets are vit D3 is that the same thing!?

Do you take any other supplements as well as the vit D? I feel like im taking way too many at the mo!!!

I know what you mean I bet I rattle on the way to bed hahaha

atm I'm taking prenatals, vit d, vit b complex and soy

What you you taking atm firefox
 
i got mine from aldi, they sell them all over the place really. they are calcium and vit d, not the vitd3, im not sure what the difference is but everything iv read points to the vit d.

the soy didnt work for me, i only tried it once but got scared off as people kept telling me it can be a form of contraceptive (like i need that :dohh:)

i really hope it does work for others too, i really didnt think it would to be honest but hey, im 2dpo :happydance: absolutely buzzing!!!

i also take epo, im on a small dose of met (this alone did not make me ov by the way) asprin, and folic acid. let me know how you get on. GL :hugs:
 
bumski.. wow what great news and information

it def looks like your chart will confirm O tomorrow or Saturday :dance:

wondering though if you can start taking it mid cycle?? I am on CD43.. UGH YES (clomid didn't help this cycle) and I have not O'd yet....

what ya think? and I know I read it back but how much are you taking again?

I am VERY CURIOUS about this now
 
hi kelster, i cant see what harm it would do to take it now as its only a vitamin, the bottle i have says 2 tablets = 5ug (this is equivilent to 200iu)
i take 2 in the morning and two at night so that would be 10ug a day (equivilent to 400iu) its the only thing iv done differently this month so for now im swearing by it:thumbup:

they say RDA is 5ug a day but iv read women take a lot more than this to bring on ov, if you google vit d and pcos you should find some really interesting stuff. xx
 
Thanks hun a BIG THANKS :hugs:


I think I will run the store today and see if I can find some and start it tomorrow AM.... I just wanna O now and start a new cycle....

I hope this is it for u.. FX's
 
your very welcome :flower:

let me know how you get on with it, i should be getting prescribed clomid again in nov but hopefully wont need it, i was very doubtfull about clomid as it didnt work last time. so this is so much better xx
 
absolutely I will..... :)

.. what mg were you on with clomid???? Sept was my first time on it at 50mg and my GYN will only do two months with me.... if it doesn't work off to the FS--- he doesn't want to waste time due to my age and 2 MC within the last year
 
i did 100mg first month and then 3 months of 150mg and absolutely nothing :cry:

i will still take it if they offer it though, as this is the last thing we get on nhs, they said after that its ivf so im over the moon to have ov, i was devastated thinking we got so close when we had early mc in august and it looked like i wasnt going to ov again.

it would be lovely if it works for you, it just shocks me that vit d should be advised if you have pcos and yet no dr has ever mentioned it, well not to me anyway xx

Im taking fertility blend which is like a preconception supplement but it has vitex in it. Royal Jelly, omega 3 and am going to start on a decent vit b complex and vit D tomorrow. Seems a bit excesssive doesnt it! I might ditch the royal jelly for the time being!

I've just ordered some soy iso online...am hoping that i miraculously get af soon so that I can take it when it arrives. How much soy are you taking?

Thanks Bumski, bet you are buzzing! It brill news!
