Soy Isoflavones! Natures Clomid!

Just took my last dose of soy so lets see what happens. Af has officially flown out and CM is already becoming more watery as it usually does with soy. Boobs are massive and I have has some night sweats. I used to think that soy delayed my ov but I have had later ov days on none soy cycles since. Good luck ladies.
 
Thanks Poppy. Hows serenity doing? has the colic eased yet. x
 
Yeah colic gone just unsettled during day with the reflux :dohh:
 
Hi ladies!!
How is everyone?

I have a question....is it ok to take soy 3 cycles in a row?
 
I have only ever taken it for two cycles as high levels of oestrogen over more than this can cause cysts to develop. I know many do as you can with clomid. I never wanted to take the risk.
 
I dont know what to do. I dont want cysts...should I skip a cycle? I just dont want a long cycle again. I am getting the HSG done on tuesday so I dont know if that alone will give me a normal cycle.
I was planning on starting tonight CD3-7.
 
I wouldn't take anything if you're going to do the HSG this month. It could mess with the results or you/your dr wouldn't know how effective it was. I'd try to take this month off and see how the HSG works so you can give it a fair trial.
 
My AF due Sunday (hubby's birthday) and tried a test this morn, bfn. Not holding out much hope. Also received appt for FS clinic with stern warning that it would be diagnosis only as I'm too old for any intervention. Sigh!

Thats what I was afraid of!
Do you think being on it for 3 cycles could have helped regulate me somewhat or do you think I will end up back where I started?
 
Some women's cycles do regulate themselves with soy. Fingers crossed.

Justmarried that is so unfair. I have just started testing had my initial bloods dpne all normal now eaiting on an ultrasound before my gp will refer me to a fs....again with the warning there will ne no interventions as allready have a daughter. So unfair.
 
Debz dont let them flob you off, i already had 3 boys with my ex hubby and me and OH had been trying for 6yrs 'well ntnp' but nothing, we had all the tests and nothing wrong ' Unexplained Infertility' so i stood my ground and told them i knew we was entitled to 3 shots at IVF under the NHS and we was referred to a FS, was ready to start ISCI but i suffered a Pulmonary Embolism so treatment went on hold for 6mths whilst i was on Warfarin for blood clot, but 5days after i came off that we concieved Korben naturally then Serenity :cloud9:
 
As you know this is my 1st cycle with soy. My ticker says day 2 but I'm actually stull waiting for AF, should have arrived yesterday. Don't hold out much hop tho as did poas on Saturday & yesterday with bfn & had some cramping & I have zero symptoms, but on the plus side it was my hubby's birthday yesterday & it was good not to have bad news, we had a great day!
 
I need to add my experience of soy........................

I usually OV CD17-19 and didnt OV till CD25 when I first took Soy.
Thought it would correct itself this month by not taking them but im currently on CD21 and still no OV - not impressed.

Dunno whether to leave it to correct itself or maybe take AC?? Im worried about taking anything else now tho :(
