Soy Isoflavones! Natures Clomid!

Spotting!! Currently in work exhausted...not usually this tired...went to the loo and I'm spotting light redish xx

Oh nooo.. i was just thinking if i will hear some update from you. Do you think it's your af coming or have you tested anymore?

I'm a bit unsure of what this is but at 2am I wiped and very light on toilet paper...5 hours later spotting on pad, home at 8am wiped and still very light when I wiped, woke up at 3pm brownish red when I wiped...just now brown on pad about a tea spoon and brown when I wipe. Now usually with af its bright red and heavy...will wait for a while and see what happens xx

How much did you take and when?
 
The 1st 3 times I took 120mg 3-7 July, sep, nov , dec

The fertilty nurse said it 'can' cause cysts and fibroidsas they feed off estrogen which it produces if taking it it might be worth having a scan :) x

Usually they don't recommend it to ppl who already ovulate. Because you already produce estrogen and if you take soy that will trick your body to make even more estrogen and that's when all kind of bad things can happen. Thanks for the info tho :)
 
Im new here. I have atypical pcos(no period no ovulation but everything else is normal) and hubs has motility issues(he quit smoking and we havent had an SA done since 2010 to see if its improved at all). i heard about soy from this board so i gave it a try this month. took it CD 5-9 (80,80,80, 120, 120). Got a pos OPK on CD 14 (i had also had some brown spotting for 2 days prior), but no ferning and scant ewcm. next day, OPK was lighter and temp dropped significantly. Today, brown spotting again with gobs and gobs of EWCM, big degree temp jump and full ferning. hubs and I dtd on cd 9, 11, 12, 13 (he left on cd14). is there any hope for us? i mean, i KNOW how this works and i KNOW in optimal conditions that sperm can live for up to 5 days. i just hope that they are hanging out and waiting for the egg.

my OPK have been all over the place. I got pos OPK on CD 14(and spotting) and again today, CD 16(again with spotting). I have no earthly idea wth is going on :/ this is my first soy experience, and its been a doozy. im having my dr draw progesterone levels in a week to see if i ovulated and potentially scanning me to see if there are any cysts.

our first child was a BCP failure, then it took 8.5 years of active trying(meds, iui, etc) before we did the only IVF cycle we will ever be able to do because of insurance. we had just 2 healthy embryos and were blessed with twins, but feel our family isnt complete just yet. with ivf no longer an option, this is where we are at :)

i would love any imput you ladies have regarding soy. this was my first cycle since the twins were born in nov 2010(extended BFing...just weaned in dec). im debating whether or not to try it again if we didnt catch the egg this month.

If i understand right then then you had +opk on CD14 and temp shift on CD16, means you ovulated on CD15. Sperm can live 5 days in perfect conditions but usually 2-3 days. I think you have a very good chance to get your bfp. About spotting, it could have been ovulation spotting.

This is my second time taking soy. Today will be the last dose. The first time my BDing wasn't perfect so i think i missed my chance. So i decided to try it again.
 
yeah basically. its weird, i got a +opk on cd14 AND cd16, i was actively spotting on both days. ive dont ovulate regularly or without help usually, but when i have i have never gotten more that one +opk, so im stumped. the one i took cd 15 was neg. my temp dropped on cd15 and spiked on cd16. only time will tell. my back hurts and i feel very full and crampy in my ovary area.
 
trying to share my chart from FF. Im pretty sure that "O" has occured, but only time will tell(and a progesterone blood test in a few days of course).

cant figure out which link to use :/ nevermind, i think i figured it out. here is my chart :)

Yup i'm very positive that you ovulated on CD15 :thumbup: and i guess it really was O spotting you had.
 
let me know if you guys ovulate differently to usual on soy, im on cd12 and no sign of ovulation yet, mine is usually cd 14-16 when i ovulate, already getting worried its not going to work :(
do you guys know if soy always brings ovulation forward?

For me the first time i tried it i ovulated 4 days earlier. It don't make all women ovulate earlier, some have even ovulated few days later. If it don't make you O earlier it should still make your O stronger.
 
CG29 - did you test?? :D

BFN!! :( AF came properly a little while later so started soy :) gonna do cd2-6 xxxx

Awww i'm so sorry :( :hugs: But yay for starting soy. I took my last dose on tuesday :) Are you planning to start temping too?

Happy I'm started on it, let me know how it goes :)...I'm currently away for valentines so haven't been able to might get a thermometer tomorrow until I can get my hands on bbt one, I know it won't be accurate but would do for now :) xxx
