Starting femara today

[alisou21]

Hello ladies!! Anyone taking femara this month? I am on cycle day 3 and this will be my second cycle with Femara.

 

[sugarpuff]

Hi, I'm on femara again this month, currently on day 6 (taking femara cd2-6). This is my 9th(ish) cycle of it. First cycle was when ltttc my first child and I got pregnant with my now 3 year old daughter. I also got pregnant in December last year (cycle 27 of ttc) and march this year (cycle 30) whilst taking femara but sadly lost those babies. I have endometriosis like you too

I love femara !

 

[alisou21]

Wow! So it seems to work for you!! Have you been actively trying for long?
This is my second cycle with femara, I am taking it from day 3 to 7, two per day. I am feeling very positive for this month, but trying to keep calm.... it's been over 3 years we are trying without any success... my doctor thinks femara should really help me...

 

[mummytoangels]

I am on my 1st cycle of femara nd currently in my TWW. I took it CD4-8 nd so far have found it much better than clomid.

Good luck ladies

[mummytoangels]

I got pregnant for the first time thanks to Femara!! Good luck ladies!

Oh that's wonderful sweetie, Congrats. How many MG were u on?

 

[~Brandy~]

This is my first and only Femara cycle.. I am 6dpo so time will tell. Next month were doing IVF.

 

[sugarpuff]

How is everyone getting on ?

 

[alisou21]

Well... I had only one mature egg this cycle and I ovulated on my right side, where my one and only tube is open. So, I do feel a little hopeful but at the same time doubtful.

Yesterday, hubby and I kind of broke the silence in the fertility issues. He goes with me to the doctor and he knows when we need to BD but we hardly talk about it, I decided this way to try to keep at least a little enchant in our relationship. Anyway, I have been in a bad mood in the last few days and he insisted asking what´s going on and I told him I think it is because deep down I feel I won´t get pregnant "naturally" and I see IVF coming in our direction very quickly. I started the year so positive, but I feel like I am losing energy.


Hope the rest of you are doing better! Hugs!

Not looking promising, right?

Hi All! I just became eligible for these LTTTC fora, and I wanted to come ask about others' Femara experiences. I don't think it did anything for me--I ovulate on my own fine, and the cycle monitoring scan only showed one decent size follie. I also think that I ovulated a little on the late side--assuming today was O day, based on OPKs. Tomorrow's temp should help. Did you ladies O at the same time?

Brandy how is the IVF prep going?

Ali, I can't see your chart--one of my own popped up when I clicked on that link. Freaked me out, frankly! But I think it's a weird FF redirect thing. I also just got a probable endo diagnosis.

9 eggs. OMG.

to you all!

 

[alisou21]

Hi pbl_ge. According to my doctor endometriosis patient are known for being low responders to stimulation. I also only got one follicle for the 2 cycles I was on Femara. My doctor says that femara is a very low stimulation. We even talked about taking injections and Femara together, but I am still considering it.

I took a test yesterday, needless to say I failed it
But still no sign of AF, should be getting cramps by now, and nothing.. I cramped for few days after ovulation but it´s been two day I don´t feel a thing... it will come probably on my B-Day night.

See if you can see it now:

[pbl_ge]

Thanks, Allie. Interesting about endo and stimulation.

Sill can't see chart. Try going to "get code" under the "sharing" tab when you're looking at your chart.

Hope AF doesn't come for your bday!

 

[alisou21]

Today I just read by accident something so interesting that one of the early signs of pregnancy most people ignore is sneezing and I have been sneezing like crazy lately. I took several anti alergics it doesn´t seem to work. But it could also be the spring, everybody has complained about it lately. What bugs me is that I still have no cramps... I have been cramping from days after ovulation to untill 4 days ago, and now nothing...

anyways, it is probably nothing... but we always get our hopes high, dont we?

pbl_ge, let me know if you can see it now hun:

[pbl_ge]

That worked, if I copy and paste the link! Your chart looks great! I wonder why FF put your coverline so high. I don't really understand the method they use to determine cover line levels. It's almost a half degree higher than last month.

When are you testing?

 

[alisou21]

Yeah, I also think it is too high the cover line this month, but you can still see the difference. I test this morning, BFN, but well, still no sign of AF. Still have hope. No cramps, not feeling like I usually do when AF is about to come. But it could also be my mind playing games with my body
I only tested today because we are going out of town tonight and my temperature was high again this morning, when it was supose to start going down.

I saw in your signature that you are doing a laparoscopy next month. Why are the doctors suggesting it? You haven't been trying for that long... is your HSG abnormal?
I am asking because I underwent a laparoscopy that resulted completely unnecessary as they didn't do anything.
