So my story goes a little something like this....
DF and I have been ttc for 11 months. Last month I started taking 50mcg levothyroxine for an under active thyroid. My primary care dr started me on them and I haven't been able to get an appointment with my ob/gyn dr to see how that will affect trying to get pregnant. One of her first questions when I began seeing her was if I had thyroid problems or diabetes (I am overweight) So I was in the process of getting all that checked out when I had my first appointment with her last month. I don't have diabetes but I'm still wondering what role the under active thyroid will play in fertility.
Fast forward to now. I had a positive dollar tree opk on the 6th but no smiley on the digital. I never did get the smiley but I had positives on the dollar tree tests as well as super sore boobs like normal. So going by that I was approximately 8-10 dpo and started what I thought was AF because it was a normal flow. I put a tampon in to go tan and now it's gone. Any advice? Would the meds be causing that? Perhaps the tampon? I normally wear pads because it helps with the cramps. I'm open to any advice you ladies have to offer!!!!
