Still no AF now cd41, another BFN this morning with FMU using Fr Rapid response. Really thinking I should just call the dr and have her get me a script for Provera so at least I have a Cd to start with ovulation testing this month, maybe do another round of blood tests on Cd 3 and start doing the day 21 bloods again. I'm so worried that I'm starting my menopause early or going thru Peri-menopause. Not sure what my family history is as I am adopted and my twin had a hysterectomy @ 30 thanks to precancerous endometrium.

Are you seeing an RE? I think that would be good at this point!
I'm 7 DPO, imagining symptoms!! Hope they are for real, I guess I wil kmow in a few days.

No RE as right now we're not sure if insurance will cover it and we aren't rolling in money. DH isn't sure if we'll veer see one because of his last experience with the local one, he was so embarrassed and grossed out he kind of flipped a bit about it. we'll see we're both on a weight loss journey as we are both pretty over weight. So perhaps when that is done adn we have reached our goal weight we'll get pregnant.

3yrsNwaiting - I don't think you O'd so early. From having really long cycles to an early O? I was on Clomid for two cycles. What I read was that Clomid can bring on O sooner. I typically O arond CD18 and w Clomid, I O'ed around CD16. Dr should tell you to start BD 5 days after you take your last pill. I was taking Clomid CD5-9 and so I was to start BD on CD14. I'm no dr but I stand by what I believe. Also, I O every cycle and I get cramps before O too. Those cramps are IDK what but it's certainly not O for me. I've been charting for 11 months and so I'm pretty comfortable with my stats of what my body's doing.. yours is different of course so you can certainly take my info w a grain of salt. GL to you.

PS I don't know anything about that other drug you mentioned and so IDK how it changes things for clomid, if it does at all. again, GL

Believe me I have done my research I also have a wonderful doctor working with me which brings up another plus... I have been PCOS and untreated forever... and just started ttc with the care of an amazing dr. I am sure what I felt was the clomid working on me--follicles growing to size and such, it's a process that doesn't just happen in one certain day. By my chart I should have ovulated in between the days Oct 20-25th. I started having these weird cramps I speek of about 9-10 days before that... possible clomid side effects but very possible ovulation cramping. Many women do experience ovulation pains such as cramping, pinching, pulling, etc. My cycles aren't extremely long either...? Right at 30 days since I have been taking medroxy(provera). I'm not sure what med you were unsure of... metformin? Met is a drug that is extremely effective in treating women with PCOS when combined with clomid. (which i have been dx with PCOS.) 75% of women will conceive while taking met and clomid if they're BMI is below 25.

After checking my charts I'm right at 9-10 dpo CROSS YOUR TOES & FINGERS & TOUNGES!! EVERYTHING BUT LEGS

So with all these things as factors I know I have a reason to be hopeful this month!!!

Finally have a doctor with a plan!!!
25lb weightloss!!!
Clomid 3rd round (First round days 5-9/first round that body reacted at all!!)
Metformin (First month combined with Clomid!!!)

Can't blame a girl for being excited, I am just simply pleased with the fact that I feel my body reacting...false pg symptoms or not I like that I feel something for the first time ever. If not this month I see it like I got all the time in the world!! I know it will happen. =))

wish everybody the best of luck!!!

 

[lilyV]

yup, it was metformin/provera that I don't know anything about. I had understood your cycles were over 38 days, apologies, I must have been thinking of something else.

GL hon.

Hello!! I got weak today and tested at 12 DPO, BFN ��
How is everyone else doing?

 

[ttcasap]

Flopy
Still no Af and all BFN's on HPT's called dr she said she wouldn't order a blood HcG as she thinks I'm back to my skipping periods cycle, her nurse basically said call if I get a BFP or DH decides to go for more tests and we decide to go the IUI route. So I think it is time to start dr shopping again, I just want a blood test ordered period, for total confirmation one way or the other. Sat. will be 3 weeks late so..... frustrating to say the least.

 

[sugarpi24]

Tttc can you get one without the doctor? I can it just cost more. Why don't they give you provera or progesterone to just start your period too?! I bet its frustrating doctors just don't seem to see that!

That's really disappointing!! You should come to Mexico, here tests are quite cheap and if you know what you need yypu can get the tests done qt private labs without seeing a Dr.

 

[ttcasap]

Floppy you would think as much as we pay for healthcare here it would be better but no such luck.it seems you have to go elsewhere for more compassionate care.

 

[MrsHamstra]

anyones husband taken clomid?

Mine started tonight.
I did 7 months but now that I ovulate on my own I don't need it.
He has a count of 6 mil hoping to spike it =)

 

[2preciousgirl]

[horseypants]

hi all, ive been lurking for a while - i finished my first round of clomid and just started round two last night - but here's my question. did any of you have a really really light af the first round? mine has always been a mess in the past and so far, this has been four days of really light stop and start flow - barely more than spotting. is there a chance my lining got too thin? could this improve for this 2nd cycle or will the same thing happen? tell me about your first clomid af and subsequent ones. ps. i wanna have twins

 

[Dynamicmae]

Progesterone bloods done CD24 8dpo results came back : 66.3nmol/L... YAY!!!! On CD26 today... Feelin positive. Very hungry, craving chocolate, tired and pulling feeling in uterus..... Could all be in my head.... But feeling GOOD about this month!!

[ttcreed]

Hey ladies! I have been gone for about six months. I was pregnant with my first, due to clomid. We lost our daughter on May 2, 2012 to Chorioamnionitis. We are now attempting to try for another baby. I hope we have some good news soon. Hope to talk to you all again!

 

[lilyV]

[momof1making2]

2preciousgirl- I too, have been on clomid for 3 months ( Dec. being my third) I was on 50mg the first month and 100mg the second and now the third. I had the same problem with my periods they were so light. My lining had thinned out from the clomid which is a common symptom! This however, was believed to be my problem with ttc the last two months. My egg quality was great and I was ovulating just no Implantation ( due to thin lining/ they think). So this month I am now on my 3rd day of clomid and then I do 3 days of this "Gonal-F injectable" that is suppose to thicken my lining to help with implantation. You may want to ask your doctor if this is perhaps the same thing you are going through. Hope that helped! ;o)
