Soy Isoflavones! Natures Clomid!

Hi guys, i've been off and on here. I've been terrible at charting consistently but could you please take a look at my chart? I usually OV on day 21 or 22 from previous charts but this one is just plain weird!! My link is below
 
Soooo without fuether ado... Lol
Here are my opks. Top is cd 7, followed by cd 9, and todays (cd10) at the bottom.
Its + right?
Its "answer" brand if it matters

hi :) the test line needs to be the same or brighter as the control line - thats my understanding of how the OPK's work though.... so the line on the left needs to be the same as the one on the right.... but it seems to be getting brighter so it must be getting closer and closer!
good luck :)
 
its very exciting readng about all the ladies taking soy atm or in the TWW. Hope there is some more bfps soon!!

I ordered my soy today online (thanks elliots mum!). Hopefully I will get lucky and not need it (currently 3DPO), but i doubt it! I'm very excited about giving it a go. I would soooo love shorter cycles, let alone a BFP! It would be far less depressing getting AF if i knew it wasnt going to be so long before the next O.


your welcome :) i find them really hard to swallow because of the size so i would take 1 every few moments while eating breakfast :)
 
omg i took my first ever dose last night, and went out shopping and really felt like i was having a panic attack :(, only felt like this on clomid so guessing it could be side e
ffect. what do ya reckon and has anyone else had this please xx

Maybe you ovulated early, like day 18/19? Are you having any symptoms?
 
See page 515 for my first post to this thread regarding symptoms I was having after using Soy for the first time this cycle...

I wanted to update/share that I got a BFP today at 11 dpo after using Soy for the first time this cycle! I turned 38 in May and tried Soy because this was my 5th cycle of TTC and I wasn't getting any younger! I also seemed to ovulate kind of late in my cycle. So I hoped for an earlier O, which I did get, like 5 days earlier than usual!!

We bd'd two times the day I got my positive OPK. Then I had some spotting which turned into like another period almost and I figured the extra estrogen had messed with my body. Then the bleeding stopped and went back to spotting after like 5 days. Now there's just like a brownish tinge whenever I wipe.

I took a test today just for the heck of it expecting it to be negative, and it was a fairly strong positive!!! I am less than 4 weeks pg and scared to death of a problem or m/c due to age, soy, the bleeding and spotting I've had, but also hopeful.


Doctor won't see me til 7/15 when I'm past 7 weeks, and I will prob be a nervous wreck til then... Pls keep me in your thoughts and good luck to all of you!!

i didnt have this but i always took my soy right before bed so i wouldnt notice side effects, and it totally worked for me! the only actually side effect i nticed was how strong/slightly painful ovulation was from it. i say try it at bedtime and see if it feels easier on you!:thumbup:

So your current pregnancy, you conceived after using Soy??

Here are my opk's.

The answer brand looks positive to me but I guess not....hopefully soon though!

I think they are possibly nearly there hun.CD 11 is quite early to o :hugs:

Ive noticed my temp has been up and down like a yo-yo... I know yesterdays spike is I had a few drinks I had Thursday night :blush:

Im hoping ninja egg is growing big and fat, ive had a few pains here and there both sides. have been doing opks and am starting to get a line :-D it was white as snow a few days ago. Ive also been getting lots of cm. Its gone from creamy to kinda creamy/ watery... Im excited to see what unfolds in the next few days :-)
 
Thanks. I guess I'm just paranoid that if it doesn't happen soon I'm doomed fot a 70 day cycle or not Oing at all! I used to feel my O pains every cycle but the last 3 cycles I havent felt anything :/
 
Hi!

Well, it seems Soy is not for me... I took it first time this cycle, CD3-7 and I'm on CD24 today and positively not ovulating. I haven't even had any EWCM so far. Not sure what's the best to do now. I do have Provera, so I could kick start a new cycle. Or is better to wait and see what happens next, I really don't know.

Did you take the soy without af?
 
No, Poppy, I took it CD3-7 this time, so it was the beginning of the cycle. A few months ago, I took it in the middle of the cycle and the outcome was just the same. No EWCM for weeks and no signs of ovulation. I'm really puzzled.
 
sorry your not having any luck with the soy. Are you using opk's? I think if my opk was getting close to being positive I'd wait it out...otherwise I might consider the provera. :/

My opk's are getting lighter instead of darker now :/
Is it possible to O on cd 8 or 9? Otherwise im confused as to why it was almost positive and then getting lighter. This stinks. Im too impatient lol.
 
Crystal - sometimes your body can gear up to ov but then decide it doesn't want to. Maybe leave the opks for a couple days and start doing them again? You might still ovulate (and cd 8-9 is very early to ov! well it is for me anyway haha) but good luck and FXd you ov soon :)

XxX
 
Crystal, I'm using OPK, yep. My LH levels are usually high due to PCOS though, so I always get the second line. I had a few that were half as dark as the control line, but never a true positive. I don't usually get the fade-in pattern though.

If you have PCOS too, then Answer brand might not be the best, even people without issues sometimes get like 4 days of positives on those.
