The doctor prescribed Femara to me today to start ovulation... Has anyone tried this drug? Any success? Any side effects?
I am temping. Last cycle Fertility Friend didn't notice my O through my temps. It had cross hairs twice, once on day 8 and one on day 22, but after continuing to temp it took them away. Looking at it, it looks like I may have O'd day 17. But I have PCOS which can make temps rocky.
I suggest also looking at other signs, such as CM. combining all of them will give a better picture. i didn't track CM last cycle but I will be this cycle. We are also going to BD every day until day 22. My Day 21 Progesterone test will tell me for sure if I ovulated.
I'm on my second cycle of letrozole. The first time I was on 2.5mg, but in the middle of my cycle I had a death in the family and it all kind of went out the window. I'm now on CD11 of cycle 2 on letrozole. I haven't had any kind of side affects, and I just started using OPKs yesterday to see if I ovulate or not.
I'm also incredibly new to all of this. I don't know much more than peeing on an OPK and bding all the time, lol. We start BD as soon as AF is gone, and go every other day.
Hope that helps some.
I take it cd3-7. I was just told to wait for AF. As for checking CM, It's never been reliable for me. I can't ever tell what is what and just generally don't mess with it.
I thought I'd add I'm also taking metformin, which kicked AF in the butt and made her come.
