Soy Isoflavones! Natures Clomid!

[elliots.mum]

hey jaz this is the 9th cycle of ttc#2... tooks 4 years and 5 m/c for #1 - already had 2m/c in 9 months and drs wont do sh*t all because of the fact that im 'still young'.... if it was them going through it, it would be another story and they want everything done and tested NOW but no, im just a normal citizen - so thought i would take matters into my own hands adn give soy a try

omg thats so bad. you poor thing Have you tried a couple of different doctors? I am so sorry that no one will help you, let alone everything that has happened. My GP was happy to refer me straight away to a fertility specialist last tome round just because of my cycles being so bad. I was 30. I didnt take them up on it. I only wanted to do that as a last resort. In your case, I would. Surely someone can refer you? or can you book straight into a gyno or something? I'm not sure how accessible these services are to you though (im in melbourne)

i have seen many different gynos, and am going to try a fertility specialist at the end of the year if i dont concevie (and not m/c) by then.... i know i can have another child - i just need a bit of help! i live in a small country town where i have to travel an hour to see a gyno (and hes old and creepy)... im from up near tamworth NSW..... i sooo wish i could find a decent doctor that would listen to me!!!

has any one had excessive WHITE/CREAMY discahrge after ovulation or before AF? i have been having extremly heavy and white discahrge for the last 3 days - no odour or itch or anything... its really heavy and havent had it before so dont know what it could be

Jaz - I took soy CD3-7, 80mg, 120mg, 120mg, 160mg, 160mg. This was my first cycle on it and it did shorten my cycle a little. Might up the doses slightly next cycle if AF arrives. Thinking 120, 160, 160, 200, 200. x

Pretty Machine - No they didn't scan either of them, just did external and internal examinations. They should be looking at both on Monday when I go back so I will post an update afterwards x

Elliott's Mum - Yes I've had that CM this cycle (post ov) plus occasionally I've had stretchy but yellow CM. No itching or signs of infection either. Could you try a different doctor? I'm only 26 but my gp referred my for gynae investigations due to my PCOS symptoms. NHS are willing to start treating from Aug as we will have been TTC for 12 months by then, but they started me on the fertility investigations at 6 months ttc as they take so long. I would try another gp, see if you can be referred. Seems so unfair x

As for me, 12 dpo today and temp has dropped still way above coverline but I can't help thinking is on her way. Tested this morning and bfn, another grey shadow of a line but pretty sure it's an evap as this only showed up when the test had dried. Cervix is very high though, can barely reach it. Bet I won't sleep tonight, desperate to see if my temps go back up x x

Ellliott's Mum - just saw your 2nd post and realised you're in NSW. My experience is with the NHS in the UK, sorry x x

thick white discharge is caused by progesterone in the LP, so pretty common. I get it some cycles more than others.

Glowstar hope you have a fab holiday you deserve it. We are booking up tomorrow for the 8th August just hope my first AF comes before then. Will have to stock up on the soy ready. x

Hiya !
Can I join this tread ?
I am on about to get AF (due tomorrow, already know I'm out !). I will be on cycle 9 TTC#1, I had a miscarriage after getting pregnant on cycle 7 at about 5 weeks.
I have decided to use soy this month. I will be taking 120mg (because I have 40mg tablets) and will be taking it CD3-7. Does that sound ok ?

I am also using CBFM, Temping, OPK's and Baby Aspirin =)

hi bees! long time no see! i did my soy cd 2-6 when i got my +... and remember that once you get your + you stop taking the baby aspirin! i was taking that as well.

This is in intresting thread! It looks like I havn't ovualted since I had my daughter in January. So I'm thinking after my dr. appointment on July 8th for no pp period. And if she doesn't help me out or maybe even prescibed me clomid.. (which I doubt she will.) Then I'll try soy. When are you suppose to start taking it?

 

[Miss Redknob]

Prettymachine, what baby aspirin did you take??

 

[Jaz78]

glowstar - hope you have a great holiday!

scholesy - I hope you get that BFP this morning or that AF has at least come and put you out of your misery. I so hate TWW!

beesbella - welcome! im on my first cycle of soy atm, 3rd day of taking it, CD5. im no expert but your plan sounds good to me!

ann89 - supposed to start soy on one of the first 5 days of your cycle. i think most people take it CD3-7 or CD5-9. Are you still bfing?

I've taken two doses of soy so far (and will take another one in a few hours). I'm a bit headachey and nauseous and off my food, but nothing too bad. I'm so excited by the prospect of perhaps Oing in the next two weeks... that would be so awesome! Oing at any time less than CD30 would be kinda awesome really!

 

[ann89]

No i'm not bfing my daughter didn't live but 40 mins after birth.

 

[Miss Redknob]

Ann89 - I am so sorry for your loss...

 

[elliots.mum]

anyone had pregnancy symptoms in the days leading up to AF after using Soy??
im on cd 25 and have the WORST reflux, constipation and the feeling of breast milk 'let down' tingly type thing.... or am i symptom spotting??? lol oh this shit does me head in!

 

[BeesBella]

I thought you could continue taking baby aspirin when pregnant because it helps increase blood flow and can prevent miscarriage ?
