Soya Isoflavones Cycle Buddies! <3

Congrats southernbound!!:)

I will take 100, 150, 150, 200, 200 I think. The capsules I have are 100mg each so not sure how reliably I could split them in quarters. I will take it on days 3-7. Think today is my actual CD1 as only spotted yesterday so will start on Tuesday.
 
How come you went over the recommended dosage? It's advised to take up to 200mg, not past it.
 
because I've never actually seen a study that had any set recommended dosages outside of mommy forum speculation, but I did see a peer reviewed study that found in IVF patients taking 1500 mg increased the liklihood of implantation. I would never take that much but if doctors were comfortable going that high in a study then not bothering to cut my pill and going 40 over probably isn't going to hurt anything.

I think the Do Not Exceed 200mg probably goes hand in hand with Double Clomid Dosage.

I went over a little on my last dose the cycle I got pregnant with our son so it didnt hurt me either!
 
Cd 10....SLOWEST WEEK EVER! Waiting to O is driving me nuts.

Even though I'm not even half way through this cycle, I can't help thinking about the next....

Have any of you tried vitex? From what I'm reading I'm thinking it's similar to the soy. I just see more ladies on here raving about vitex so I was wondering why it so much more popular than soy.
 
Bostonlover - The cycle I conceived my daughter I took soy and vitex together without realising you're not supposed to. I took vitex from day 1 and then soy CD3, 4, 5 and 6. On CD6 I found out you're not supposed to take them both, so stopped both feeling annoyed I'd messed up my chances. I then surprisingly ovulated CD13 and got my BFP 10 days later.

If this cycle doesn't work out, I'll try the exact same thing even though you're not supposed to take them together :haha: once cycle can't hurt right and it might be my good luck charm!

I'm with you on this being the boring bit. I'm on CD8 and it's probably going to be a while before ovulation. It's been getting a couple of days shorter each cycle for the past few cycles, so I reckon it might be CD19 or so this time. Ugh! Such a long wait! And I have so little hope this cycle (I felt so good last cycle and nothing worked out). So it's most likely a long wait for nothing.
 
Squirrel, hahah it might be your good luck charm! I know you took them at the same time but do you prefer one over the other? We are basically on the same schedule even though I am praying I O before the cd19.
 
Well CD 39 here and bfn no symptoms at all for anything...Idk if I should wait or start my provera again... I'm thinking of starting provera again just so I can start soy I was hoping to start af by myself but I don't think I am
 
Anybody elses opks this dark at cd5?

Raine- wow, never been that dark so early!!! I'm jealous hahah I'm cd 10 and still not seeing any progression. Hopefully I won't O late again or we will be out this month.
 
Usually mine arent that dark this early so its weird! I didnt O last month and AF Came a week early but only lasted 3 days.
 
Even on cd2 when i had heavy bleeding i still had a line. So its weird. I have no idea whats going on my with body.

My OPKs vary a lot. They go from barely visible to a good strength line all around my cycle.

When I was breastfeeding and my periods hadn't returned yet they were dark all the time, but never went positive. So my hormones were clearly a little crazy.
 
Well, I'm officially 1DPO today. A little puzzled as I've had a temp dip, but given the pains on my left side now I think I may O today from the left as well.

Fingers crossed!
