ovulate on my own, doing IUI/Clomid 100 mg

[calinina]

oh wow, lisap2008 thank you so much for your recommendations, I'll definitely look into those natural supplements. I actually used to take maca root to shorten my menstrual cycle when it used to be long, I used to O on days 22-24, when I took maca root, I started O'ing on days 13-15.

Thanks again!!

How are you all feeling?
I'm on 6dpo, and the tww is killing me! I've been taking progesterone suppositories (200 mg) morning and night since 2dpiui, and baby aspirin once a day since I ovulated...I've been feeling strange symptoms this time like a pulled muscle feeling in my lower abdomen/uterus area, I went on a walk with dh last night and I felt like I was pulling a muscle cramping in my lower abdomen area and had to stop walking for a couple of minutes. I've also been having light lower back pain and sore nipples...hoping for all of our BFPs this month!!

I am still waiting to ovulate I think, had a almost + opk CD 14 and then yesterday it was fainter , but I had really bad ovary pain all evening after spending the day at the beach with the kids. I am not too hopeful for this cycle because I dont know if my husbands sperm count has bounced back yet everything I read says it takes 3 months. so I will be taking a 2 month break to lose weight while we wait. I hope to see your BFP soon!.

Hey so did you ovulate? How are you feeling?

I tested this morning, 13 dpo, 14 dptrigger and I got a faint line..Dont know what to make of it
Hoping we all get our bfps!!

 

[lisap2008]

I think I caught the tale end of my surge last week when I had the ovulation pains. so im approximately 8dpo woke up with cramps in the middle of the night and I am still having a dull ache and sore nipples but no other symptoms yet.


How many IU's was the trigger?. usually its gone by 13dpo but it depends on the person some peoples bodys hang on to it longer. if the tests continue getting darker then your pregnant!. so excited for you!.

 

[calinina]

Thanks, I took a digital and it came out 'pregnant 1-2 weeks!' I'm so excited but very cautious until I get my beta tomorrow. I'll keep you posted. I hope you get your BFP!! ::

Hi calina! Congratulations!!! I've started taking 50 mg this month but like you I already ovulate on my own.

I went for a scan on cd11 and I've got two mature follicles. I got my positive opk yesterday so I think ovulation will be today or tomorrow - in fact I'm having some ovulation pains this morning.

I'm not going to continue on clomid though as I've found the side effects really bad. I've had got flushes, headaches, anxiety, insomnia and depression

Congrats Callnina i can see that line!
I've just been having a read of your thread. Im on cycle 2 of 50mg clomid. I was hoping it would shorten my 40 day cycles but it didnt the first month...i might try maca root!!

Good luck to everyone!

 

[calinina]

Yay good luck cbeary and essjay! Keep me updated with what happens.
I actually did a digi and 'pregnant 1-2 weeks' came up so I got my beta on dpo 14 but it was only at 19. So I have another beta test tomorrow morning, hoping it doubles, if not it may be a chemical or maybe ectopic which scares me and I've been feeling shoulder pain...ugh, praying this works out!!

Praying its not ectopic or a chemical. hope your numbers double.

 

[Essjay86]

Calinina i really hope they double for you

 

[c beary83]

Good luck for tomorrow calina x

 

[calinina]

Thanks for all of the positive words and prayers, I need it. I took another frer today and it's getting darker so at least that's good. I'll keep you guys updated with my beta! Praying it works out!

 

[lisap2008]

Good progression, I bet your numbers doubled or at least rose !. congratulations!.

 

[calinina]

Thanks.
I did my blood draw this morning and my HCG was 53 it more than doubled! But it's still fairly low at this point and I'm spotting brown/red blood so still a little cautious. Praying this works out!

 

[TinyLynne]

I hope all works out for you! I ovulate on my own too, but not until CD21, so I am going to try Femera or Clomid next cycle, hopefully with trigger too if I can convince my OB. 53 is higher than my betas EVER were with my 3 pgs, so that sounds great!

Praying all goes well for you dear!!!

 

[calinina]

Ya try Clomid to give you 2-3 follicles to increase your chance for pregnancy.
Did your dr ever address why you may be getting CPs? I hope you get your BFP this cycle!!

 

[TinyLynne]

He wanted to refer me to a specialist, but then found out my insurance doesn't cover ANY of it, so I suggested trying a medicated cycle, thinking that maybe my very late ovulation is creating low quality eggs... It's pretty debatable, but I want to try cheaper options before going to an expensive specialist that I have to pay for out of my pocket.

When do you get your next beta?

 

[lisap2008]

Make sure they test your progesterone level as well. hope the spotting stops.
