Soy Isoflavones...?

[Soili]

ARRIELLE, why would it make you not ovulate if taken in the middle of long anovulatory cycle? I go through patches of EWCM every cycle and never ovulate. About 5 days of EWCM, followed by 5 days of dry, then repeat again. So I'm continuously "trying" to ovulate, always "restarting" the cycle, but failing to release that egg. What harm would it be to force some more hormone production to make those follicles grow to full size and pop?

Gosh, I wish I could give up sugar....

day one of you cycle your ovaries start to select which follicles will mature, usually by day 10 you have a almost mature follicle...so if you take it on a random cycle you dont know what stage your ovaries are in...doctors tell you to take soy or clomid cd2-6 or 3-7 so that you can produce more eggs and 4-8 5-9 for more mature eggs... you can take soy the entire cycle but you will not ovulate according to my research on soy, its only meant for five day if ttc, the days your follicles are developing. its kind of hard to explain but it will not work, and i am sure...that why doctors give you provera before clomid...if you takr bcp for a few days then stop your af will come... ive done that before.

Well, I still feel like there's nothing else to loose there for me, I'm already not ovulating and for a while, so it's not like I can not ovulate any more than that It's true, I can't be sure what my ovaries are doing at the moment, although since I keep getting EWCM, I'm guessing there are some close-to-mature follicles there. Otherwise absolutely none of it would make any sense.

Thank you for the tip about BCP! If Soy doesn't do anything, I'll just take the pill for a week and hope it brings the period!

Wow thanks Arielle and all other ladies i have done so so so much research on ttc and soy and everything else and was even on bcp to regulate my cycles and it never even once crossed my mind to take bcp for a week or 2 to bring on af to start soy. Unbelievable. I do believe that is what i am gonna have to do. And i think i have pcos too. Thanks again. Will keep updated

Soy iso does not work for me. Only clomid does.

what brand are you girls taking?

 

[Stash777]

I'm using Nature's Way 100mg pills.

 

[aliwnec10]

do you think this one is okay? it doesn't tell me the mg's though...

https://www.amazon.com/Natures-Way-...HPYW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1300667885&sr=8-3

and why is it the 60 pills are more expensive than 100??

Hmmm..that's weird. The one with 60 may have more mg per capsule?? I have no idea, and it looks like the same brand. The bottle with 60 is the one that I use, though. I'm going to keep looking at that page to figure it out.

 

[Stash777]

It looks like the 100 capsule one you take 4 per serving (from the product description on the site), and the 60 capsule one you only take one per serving (this is the info on my bottle), so you actual get more servings out of the 60 capsule one.

I took my first cycle of soy CD 3-7 and have been having little twinges and dull cramps since CD 8 so something is definitely going on down there. That is a good sign since last month I didn't ovulate until CD35.

 

[OnErth&InHvn]

I took Soy- (you can get it from Walmart) up to 200mg cd1-5. I got a BFP (with Wylder, our angel baby) on my 1st cycle.

Id do it again if i was TTC.

Those are great signs! Maturing eggies.

Last cycle I only took one soy iso capsule (CD3 - 100mg) and I o'd CD19 (the cycle before I o'd CD34). This cycle I took them CD5-9 and I'm on CD17 now, so we'll see what happens.

to you! Keep us updated.
