Vitamin B6 - Lengthen luteal phase or increase progesterone

Forums New posts
I don't know what to tell you, I think 8+ days LP are ok, I used to have only 5 in 2010, and I'm very happy that I have reached 12 days now. Best of luck with the test results!
 
hi ladies hope everyone is doing well. I took a test this morning and it was bfn! :cry: plus i feel terrible today i am sick and slept like crap and woke up with a headache this morning!:dohh:
 
good morning!
as far as i understood, like you kiara, i had read everywhere that less than 10 days was "abnormal" - but i dont know if that means "impossible". mine is 10/11 and i was concerned about that.... but maybe i shouldnt be.
joeys, sorry you feel poorly. no AF yet, though, yes?
afm, i didnt sleep well. had a big temp spike this AM, but negative opks the last couple days. i dunno, i'm confused. maybe it's because of poor sleep/hot while sleeping. we'll see what tomorrow brings!
 
hwpg yes no af but i just stopped taking my progesterone suppositories so it should show up in the next few days.:nope:
 
Thanks Lily and HWPG!

Joeys, I'm sorry to hear you got a BFN, hopefully you'll get a BFP soon (and the rest of us!) :hugs:
 
Hey everyone :)
Sorry to hear about your bfn Joeys....dont give up yet tho - if af hasnt arrived yet then theres always a chance.
Kiara - is there any other reason why ur temp might have dipped - did u have a bad sleep or feel unwell?...even takin ur temp at a diff time can effect ur chart - hopefully they go bk up 2moro.
I'm in the process of chasing O n i hate it - it stresses me out every month n I know that isnt doing me any favours but I cant help it...am always worried im going to miss it! My opk have been negative over the last couple of days...i tested this afternoon and thought it had started to creep up on me (as it does most months) as there was a line (not dark enough for a positive but defo there) but when i tested again this evening the line seemed to be a bit fainter :-( oh well I suppose it will be positive 2moro. The plan is to bd tonight n 2moro and hopefully catch it! x

I have decided to stop taking my vit B complex when ff confirms O so then it should be out of my system by the time I have my bloods taken next week....I have noticed a few spots on my face over the last few days that must be down to the vit B as I only ever get the odd one! Has anyone else had spots from taking vit B complex? x
 
Hey Bubbles,

I thought of all that but I had a good nights sleep, bedding was the same, no illness and temp took at right time. I'm hoping Lily is right about implantation dip but not going to hold my breath. Will be interesting to see what happens tomorrow.

Strange about you're OPK. I had an almost identical thing this month where they were lighter earlier in the day but darker in the evening - I tested 4 times on my ov day and had I not done that, would have completely missed it as the first, second and last were neg and, the second and fourth were done only 4 hours or so either side of the positive one I got. I thought it was a false positive until the temps confirmed, maybe that will happen for you.

Also, I haven't noticed any spots while taking this, infact, my skin, hair and nails look fab :happydance:
 
Kiara - sometimes temping is soo confusing! Its crossed my mind to stop temping for a few months to take the stress out of ttc...some ppl say if u relax abit it can help...but i cant bring myself to do it! I'd prob still be stressing about whether I had O'd or not lol Last month I stopped temping at 7dpo and didnt start again until after af had finished so I might do that again this month...it was nice to have a break from the 7am alarm :)

My OPK are definately strange this month...i tested again this morning and still the same faint line :( Normally if I have a faint line in the morning then by the evening it is a definite positive...I hope the B6 isn't messing with my OPK x
 
good morning ladies. I am starting to get bad cramps so expecting af today.:cry: I feel so worn out today it is no fun at all. I am emotionally drained and not sure where to go from here if we got through with another IUI or take some time off or go with IVF?:shrug:

how is everyone doing?
 
Big hugs for u Joeys xxx I don't really know much about iui or ivf...do u have a choice about which one to go with? In the UK u don't have a choice unless u go private and I'm sure it's expensive. Maybe if u have a month without iui u might feel abit less stressed but the waitin game is already hard work so waiting longer might be more stressful! x
 
Ahh Joeys, I would struggle to make that kind of decision. Maybe the specialist could suggest what may be best for you. Have they said why the IUI might not be working?

AFM, my temp went quite high today so to sit and wait the next few days. Had my progesterone bloods done today. Will wait for those results.

How is everyone else getting on? xx
 
hi!
cd11 for me... neg opks, but not expecting pos for a few more days..... otherwise, just watching the days go by, it seems. TGIF!

It is definately stressful and confusing, but when I took a break I feel out of control. While I know I'm not strictly "in control", I did feel pro-active but others do better for not taking a break. And I def get the point about not having to get up just to take a temp. Maybe a little acupuncture, reflexology or hypnotherapy to relax you (if you haven't tried already). I found hypnotherapy helps a lot and actually makes my cycle better for some reason.

I'd also be surprised if the vitamins were messing with the OPK. Are you taking just B6 or the B complex? I keep reading that they should all be taken together which is why I take the complex. But I can't see why they would affect cycles or tests as they are just water soluble from what I read. Maybe someone else can shed better light on this though xx
 
Hey Kiara
I might look into acupuncture...it's supposed to be good for ttc according to ppl in here :)
I'm taking B complex 100mg...I know it shouldn't really effect my OPK but it's just really strange for me to not have a positive already.... I've took another one today in the afternoon and still the same faint line. I normally go from faint to positive within about 12 hrs but it's been nearly 2 full days now! I wonder if the vit B has made my urine weak so that the 2nd line isn't getting dark like it normally does?? I hate it when things change lol x
 
I know its frustrating and can understand, I had it too but I did get my pos OPK in the end hich was the main thing. Are you testing more, like 3 or 4 times through the day untill you see it? I did and would have missed it if I hadn't. How's your temps doing?

I did try acupuncture but didn't really get my benefit. Hypnotherapy has stood the test of time for me, have used it for agoraphobia, panic attacks, smoking and weight loss in the past - I am now lighter, a long term non-smoker and can go out without feeling panicky lol. Loads of people swear by acupuncture but its finding whats right for you xx

How is everyone else doing this morning? x
 
So I took another OPK test at about midnight last night n the line was finally dark! Prob not quite as dark as the test line but that could be debatable. Took another one this morning and that was definately a positive :) No temp rise this morning so I am expecting (hoping) that I O today n get my temp rise 2moro...had to practically force OH to BD this morning as we didn't DTD yday lol he really hates that our sex life is dictated at this time of the month..so do I but it has to be done.

Kiara - hypnotherapy kinda scares me to be honest...I think it's coz they potentially have so much control over ur life lol although I can understand it being justified for some things...I really don't like not being in control... I think that's wat I hate most about ttc x

How is everyone else? x
 
My temp dropped again today at 9DPO and FF lowered my coverline so all my temps are above it. I think AF is getting ready to show :cry:
