[caz & bob]

Hi Caz and Bob, as I understand it, 100mg of soy would be equivalent to 50mg of clomid. So I would say go with double whatever dose of clomid you were on up to a maximum of 200mg. And yes, you take it as you would clomid, most people seem to take it on days 3 - 7 but you can do 2 - 6 or 5 - 9.

Good luck!!

I am 4dpo now, I think!! I never actually got a positive opk but I had ewcm and the opks were definitely getting darker so I am just hoping that I missed the actual surge. So here I am in the tww again!!

I got a postive Opk last month but didn't get a BFP I think I O'd to early as I got the postive on day two of soy. I am taking it again this cycle and started taking it today on cycle day number three. I hope to get a BFP soon.

I took Soy 1 cycle cd1-5... i think i took 120mg cd1-3 then bumped it up to 160mg cd4-5. I did get BFP that cycle. It delayed my O 3d and i had no SE. i took it at night. I took a menopause formula with SI and Black Gohosh (sp?) in it.
Then I took Soy with Femara (my 1st Fem cycle) cd1-3 160mg. I took the SI you can find at Walmart. I got BFN. My O was right on track- CD16.

I have not taken it since.

Has anyone who took this got any updates ? Thanks

I took soy last month, I think I o'd and had great ewcm so would take it again for that. It was a bfn for me but my cycle was complicated by taking norethisterone from cd21 so I don't know how much that messed with stuff. My key reason for taking the soy was to lengthen my cycle but the norethisterone did that anyway so I can't say what length my cycle would have been!!

I am on a medicated IUI cycle now but will try soy again if I get to another natural one.

Hey ladies

This is my 2nd month of taking soy. Last month was a but it defo made me ovulate!!! I was taking it days 3-7 and i have stuck to the same days and amount this month. I ovulated day18 (i think or 17). Thats about right for me.

Period turned up CD32 so thats not bad going considering a few months ago it was a 52day cycle!!!

I thought i had been ovulating as my opks 'showed' a surge but the line never got dark enough. I just presumed that i was the sorta person never to get dark lines on opks. but still ovulate. Turns out my body was trying to ovulate but was never actually getting there.

Soys helped me out in that sense.

Hopefully itll be a nice big fat for us this time round xxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[caz & bob]

i took it this month and my 1st time on 3-6 and i o on cd 18 whooooooop so i will let you all no how i got on xxx

 

[Pretty_Peony]

I took it for the first time last month and am really not sure what is happening. I noticed more CM but didn't use OPK's so can't say about about, also have been charting but at the moment Ov hasn't been detected apparently. However, I am now on CD44 of a 34-36 day cylce. I have had regular cylces for at least the last 12 months and the only thing that I have done differently this month is take the soy. I am loathe to think it could be that because other people are having such great success with it and their cycles but am not sure why else my cylce would be this long Boo hoo!

Good luck everyone! Fingers crossed for lots of nice BFP's! xxx

I havent taken it this month, as it's my first cycle after an early MC.
I might next month, not sure yet

Hoping someone gets a BFP on this thread soon!! xx
