Soy Isoflavones! Natures Clomid!

[Uwais_Busrain]

eesoja81: I know this sounds silly, but how do you know if you ovulate? I mean, I never have EWCM - just have CM and sometimes watery. I tried using OPK - the 'strip paper' kind in the past. Some months I have a +, other times it was not a clear +line. So, sometimes I ended up feeling sad & blue. Now,I just quit using it. But eversince taking Soy Iso & RJ, I'm feeling quite motivated in TTC. LOL. Or probably because RJ is also good for combating depression/mood swings.

I suppose there is no 100% positive way of knowing, but I've never been diagnosed with a problem, just irregular periods. For me, I truly believe that I ovulate when I have cramping-sometimes pretty strong-clear/watery cm, then EWCM. It seems to happen that way every month, and then 14 days after the EWCM I get AF. My issue was the days leading up to the EWCM-it could range from 19-22, so that's why I started the soy-to hopefully move my O up. I do believe it worked this month, it's just been kind of confusing. I had 2 days of watery CM, then 1 day of cloudy, now EWCM today. Yesterday threw me off, but it's my 1st mo. trying soy, so I kind of knew it wouldn't be super smooth. As far as the OPKs-I have not found those strips to be reliable. That's GREAT that you're feeling good about TTC-it's stressful, but should be fun & worth all of the hard work in the end!

I know, it used to be really stressful for me... but I think Royal Jelly makes me calmer. Sometimes it's kinda hard though, esp. being compared to my sis-in-law who already gave birth last September (even though she just got married last year!). It's nice that you could sort of pinpoint your ovulation days. I hope all will go well with you.
Baby to everyone here!

Wow, I didn't know Soy Iso can also increase your chance of conceiving twins! That would be great I don't mind having fraternal twins... LOL

 

[inkdchick]

me neither but i dont know if it definately does but i know my chances are higher now i am nearly 44 and there are twins on my mum's side ( her sisters are non identical twins), but you never know just hoping this soy helps us this cycle and we get our BFP as we have neen ttc nearly 3 years now good Luck xx

Ok so I bought the Spring Valley Soy Isoflavones from walmart today and they are 40 mg. I'm just not sure whether I should take one or two pills a day so if any of you can help me that would be great. I want to start them tonight which would be CD2 but I guess I could still start them CD3 if I had to. My husband is out of town and doesn't come back until the 25th of this month so it would be nice to ovulate around that time. Do the days I take the soy determine the days I will ovulate?

 

[inkdchick]

it depends on how long your cycle is hun and if you know when you normally ovulate .
I took 40mg ones but i took 5 each day (200mg) as i am 43 and have been ttc for nearly 3 years. i took them from cd2 to 6 and i ov on cd10/11, which is the day i normally do( well when i did but not every month thats why i took it), by the looks of it, and im now cd18 . My cycle length is anywhere between 24 and 28 days so 6 - 10 days to go hopefully sooner a test will show if it has worked.
Good Luck hun hope that helps if a bit muddled to read thu LOL x

i had a night from hell last night , if this soy isnt working for me this cycle i will be absolutely gutted.
Last night i was up most of the night gagging almost to the point of throwing up, and i hate being sick but luckily i wasnt. i really dont know whats going on and really hope that this is all good.
So far i have:-

lower backache
nausea on and off ( and of course last nights episode !)
constantly wet down there ! ( sorry tmi)

Hey girls,

I started to take a complex multivit containing soy-isoflavones as well. Am I catching you right that I should stop taking soy-iso when ovulating???

Thanks

No hun you take soy iso like you would clomind either cd1-5, cd2-6, cd3-7, you can only take them for 5 days or else it has the reverse effect .
I hope this helps.
xx

 

[Genie Doo]

Wow, thank you!
Yes, that helped a lot and am crossing my fingers for you that your pretty symptoms mean a nice upcoming BFP!
(However I'm confused because this is a complex vit - anyway I'm now CD9 so I guess I'm just finishing to take it now.)

 

[sianyld]

Mornin ladies, i took soy days 3-7 for time this cycle...i have PCOS and last cycle i ov'ed at CD49/50!!.....with the help of soy iso this cycle...FF has confirmed ovulation at CD21,making me 3DPO today! I will be def continuing to use soy iso to aid ovulation xx
