Young PCOS'ers! ~ 35 BFPs down!! ~

[ghinspire22]

I haven't ovulated according to my cbm but I feel like I did earlier this week. I am on CD25. It would be so late if I ovulated now but who knows what my body is doing at this point.

I was really hoping for my BFP this cycle but now I am not so sure.

Gh keep positve you may never know

I wouldn't trust your cbfm, I've heard they are pointless with pcos!

katerz- the first few times provera didn't make me sick, but it does now. Hope you feel better

Hopeful- hope your progesterone shows a rise tomorrow

nlk- can't wait to hear how your scan goes. Have fun bding!!

sky- hope your appointment goes well next time. I once waited in the waiting room for 3 hours just to get a damn referral to see the fertility specialist. Turned out my insurance didn't even require it. ugh

gs- hope you get your positive soon. Have you looked into CB Digitals? The ones with the smiley faces. Takes the guess work out

gh- I wouldn't trust the cbfm. I found it to be complete crap. It doesn't seem all that great for pcosers

I'm on cd 13 and been getting ewcm, but I think it's due to the hsg I had on Thursday. Gonna keep taking my opks, but will hopefully just be given provera immediately to bring on af so we can start the IUI. Hoping to hear from my nurse tomorrow.

How is everyone?

Happy Mother's day to all the future mommys

GL to everybody!

I'm on CD2 today, I go in for a scan on Tuesday because I was overstimulated last round of Clomid and the doctor wants to take a look before this round. Then I'll do 25mg, probably days 5-9. Maybe a bfp for Father's Day? Fx!

 

[ghinspire22]

I feel like I never know when I ovluate though...because my temp is off because of my thyroid...

I would look into the ovacue.. It's pricey, but works nicely for pcos

 

[RainAngel]

i was told no OPK is good for a PCOSer, because PCOS messes up when you ovulate, and gives you false surges.

hi everyone!

back from my scan...apparently i didnt ovulate. im absolutely gutted tbh, especially seeing as i ovulated the first time on clomid...it came as a massive shock that it worked, and now all of a sudden its not...im pretty sure thats not normal. theyre going to scan me again on friday, to see whether its just late ovulation...but i dont hold out much hope. it wasnt as if there was even a follicle which looked like it could do something...just even more little ones than there were last time.

im so upset right now. i cried all the way home from the hospital. i only have one round of clomid left now, and if this ones a dud cycle, that leaves me one left when i dont even know if it will work. FS said he might start me on a different drug through, one that hes had better results with. i think it was called leterzole? has anyone else tried this?

sorry for the rant hope everyone else is doing slightly better

 

[Helena_]

Nlk-.sorry to hear that. The same thing happened to me. Letzerol is the same as femera which has been shown to work best with pcos. I hope the rescan shows ovulation.

 

[hopefulfor1st]

Nlk honey, what day r u on? I feel like your not that far into your cycle to give up on oving??

 

[nlk]

im not that far in, CD13. but i have scans to see whether im forming a follicle, and there is nothing on it. hoping i AM just ovulating later this cycle, but this morning the FS said ive probably just built up the resistance he said he thought i would, and was so shocked last month when i ovulated!

i feel a bit better now. just really got to me this morning. i prefer having scans to blood tests though, even though its a bit painful...it means they can spot ovulation before it happens, rather than telling me that i already did or didnt...at least then i know straight up, and dont get too worked up over it!! thanks guys

 

[Matilda85]

Oh Nlk, that sucks! I hope that you just ovulate really late this month. If not, hopefully the Letrezol (sp) will work a charm. From my google searching it seems like it works better than Clomid for skinny PCOS so FXed it may be your answer.

AFM - I had a shot of ovidrel today. Has anyone else used this before? I'm just wondering if it will definitely mean I ovulate. As background, have been on 25 mg Clomid, have a good sized follice and FS advised ovidrel will ensure it ruptures? I have no idea what this means but ruptures sounded like a bad thing to me Would love any thoughts

 

[nlk]

thanks, matilda! good to know that it sounds good!

when they say rupture, they just mean 'release the egg'. so its definitely not a bad thing! its only bad when a cyst ruptures, because theres generally not an egg inside it. im wondering whats made your FS think that it wouldnt rupture on its own though?? very strange! let us know how it goes though!

 

[ghinspire22]

I was thinking of all of you girls yesterday. I was thinking how nice it will be to celebrate a mother's day with our little ones.

This cycle is slowly coming to a close for me. I'm doubting that I ovulated at all. I'm trying to keep my head up and tell myself that maybe I did and caught the egg.

I'll be testing soon enough I suppose. I'm on CD 26 out of my normal 32 day cycle.

Around this time next week or so I'll be taking a HPT if my AF doesn't come as scheduled.

I'm hoping that one of us has some luck this cycle.

Hi, I'm 23 and have PCOS. We have been TTC for (4 days off) 3 and a half years, now.

I am planning to try Soy Isoflavones this cycle as I am not allowed Clomid. My OB/GYN will not prescribe it until my BMI is below 35 (which is why I had a gastric bypass - BMI now 38.2 from 53.5)

I will also take evening primrose and drink grapefruit juice to help with fertile cervical mucus, chart BBT and use my saliva microscope.

Just wanted to say good luck and baby-dust to everyone.

matilda- rupturing is a good thing! It means the egg was released. The trigger should work, and it makes timing easier. Good luck!

ghin- I hope you o'ed and just weren't able to tell or something. I agree, I hope there is a TON of luck for this group this month

Mag- welcome! Hope the soy works for you, and if not that you have a good weight-loss journey and are able to get clomid asap

Thank you though I won't be prescribed it until approx December 2013 at earliest as they will not help you TTC for 2 years after a gastric bypass. Thank you all the same
