Hi *waves* I hope you don't mind a newbie creeping in and asking for some advice! I have been TTC for 8 months, my cycles have been pretty wacky since August (post BC) and ranged from no ovulation (quite a few times) to ovulating on CD 17, CD 24 and last time just gone CD 30. I am waiting for AF so show her ugly head in a few days as feel she is on her way, I really want to try and sort my stupid cycles out as I'm fed up of not ovulating or ovulating late!!

I've brought some Soy from Tesco its 40mg I understand you take it similar to Clomid but just wanted to ask you knowledgeable ladies what you would advise for me - go straight for 120 mg then gradually increase to 160mg then 200mg or is that too much? Also what days are best for someone with my ovulation pattern?

I must stress in the 8 months TTC I've only ovulated 3 times so I have more no ovulation than ovulation if that makes sense!

Advice greatly welcomed thank you so much x

Hi your charts look similar to me...your chart after using soy looks fab ... So you take day 3-7? How much do you take? Should I maybe do 80, 120, 160, 160 200 or does that sound not right? My tablets are 40 mg so bit difficult to get dose right! X

Ouch my right ovary is NOT happy, hoping it settles down soon, not sure if it is the soy or a cyst. Light OPKs today so hoping for a nice dark line soon and strong ov..
Anyone else had ovarian pain after soy, it may be unrelated of course but just throwing it out there.

Hi everyone and happy Friday x

I had pain right across my lower stomach near ovulation this month (2nd with soy, slightly higher dose than last).

As far as I can see it's quite common as it makes your brain stimulate your follicles more and for longer than normal.

Hi, I came across your thread & was very excited. I took my last pill of Provera On Tuesday the 20th. It was a 5 day thing. I have not yet started AF but should any day now. I am planning on taking it cd3-7 & am very nervous about it. We are trying this as something before we try Clomid. My Fiance will have a semen analysis next month & if all is clear then my OB will prescribe me Clomid (unless this soy works ). Any advice or anything I should know? I am a little confused though. They are 40mg tablets so I know I need to take at least 2 but should I take more? Any input or success stories would be greatly appreciated! Thanks ladies & good luck!!

[shellie31]

Hey Ladies

A quick update, my OPK was positive yesterday on CD 11, it has gone back to faint today and my temp has gone from 97.5 to 98.6 this morning so think I may have ov'd although still got pain in my right ovary but nowhere near as bad as it was.
So looks like the soy has brought my ov forward by 3 days.
Will be interesting to see if temps stay elevated now and will do another OPK in an hour or so.

I am starting to wonder if it's the soy or a cyst that is making my ovary ache.

Good luck everyone x.

 

[LeeC]

Also, I took soy CD 2 -6
120, 160, 160, 200, 200

 

[debzie]

well ladies my soy baby was not meant to be I have had another missed miscarriage diagnosed today.

 

[Hotpink_Mom]

Update: Yesterday got my +opk and now today I'm Ovulating.

 

[CdnEquestrian]

Sorry Debzie.


I thought maybe I had an implantation dip and got soooooo excited, but my temp just KEEPS falling below the coverline now. So I have no idea what's going on. I think i'm out, and maybe I have a progesterone deficiency too.
