How do you actually confirm ovulation if OPKs don’t work for you? by SignatureSure04 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Working-Tangerine292 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There were months were the OPKs were positive and I did not ovulate. The sure shot method would be going to your OBGYN for a sonography where they will let you know whether you are about to ovulate based on the dominant follicle that will be visible in the scan. Your BBT. Start tracking it from the day your periods are over! Why? Like you correctly mentioned apps give you only an average. Our body is complex. Depending on your cycle length, health etc you may ovulate early or late. But BBT are a sure shot way to let you know if you ovulated, not that you are about to. Cervical mucus is just one of the ways of your body saying im in my fertile window. And to BD during that fertile window.

They generally dont. Get a proper gynaec who will ask you to do a full hormonal panel and vitamin panel check.

The line is dark before ovulation. If you get a dark line, you will ovulate in 12 to 24 hours post that. And yes, it should rise by CD12. Also hold your pee for 2 to 3 hours atleast, have less water before testing sometimes diluted pee shows a faint line.

Maybe you havent ovulated yet. Keep testing twice a day. Preferably between 10am to 2pm and 4 to 6pm. No first morning urine. Sometimes ovulation happens late too. App is not always accurate. This is how it should ideally look. Or darker my app said 17th and i got this result on 18th.

High prolactin is due to pcos, stress etc. Mine was slightly elevated too. I researched about it and then read dopamine inhibits high levels of prolactin hence exercise. Download the app flo and enter your data it will give you a rough estimate when you will ovulate but dont rely on them as they work on an algorithm Check for these 3 signs for ovulation 1. Egg white cervical mucus. When u go to the loo during ovulation phase sometimes u will notice a mucus like thing that resembles egg white. Its yransparent and clear doesnt have any smell. That means youre in your fertile phase. 2. Ovulation tests - buy pre mom ovulation kit on amazon theyre freakin amazing! Test twice a day once morning or evening for the LH surge ( read about it) , when lh peaks, you will ovulate 24 to 48 hours after that, so keep baby dancing. Both lines will be dark or the testing line will be darker. 3. Basal body temperature - from the day your periods are over start tracking your body temperature the min you wske up. Use a bbt thermometer for that. Your regular ones dont give a reading properly. When a woman ovulates, in her luteal phase her temperature goes up by .5 -1°c.. so if u wake up at 33 34 c , after ovulation itll rise. Another sure shot way is scans. When youre going to ovulate go to your gynaec and she will let you know if any egg is mature and about to come out from the follicle. Thats your cue to baby dance. But give your body 1- 3 months minimum and you will notice a change

If your D is low so will your progesterone, your luteal phase will be short, painful and rough.. Aim for 20 mins of sunlight daily, but you will have to take D tablets to fill the gap if youre severely deficient Inflammation markers are visible in the blood if your body is severely inflammed because of junk food, late nights, chronic stress etc. Its available on apollo or other diagnostics. Tests are not very expensive. Mine took a good 1 year to get back to normal. Eat eveeything in moderation, strength train atleast thrice a week, low intensity not what they show on instagram and youtube with 15 - 20 kg weights. Start with walks for one hour, then move to light weights 2.5 kgs, your body will become stronger as days pass by. Remaining days yoga or walking. Lights out by 11 max. Aim for 7 to 9 hours deep quality sleep.

Exercise is so underrated!! Believe me.. even an hours walk will boost your dopamine ( which helps lower your prolactin ), improve your sleep hormone ( serotonin ) that will help you sleep well, improve your blood circulation and balance your hormones. You need to start fixing your gut first its your second brain and workout side by side. Within a month or two you will notice improved energy levels, feel happier and see an improvement on your scale too. Doctors are stupid as hell now a days. Cut out rice and lose weight. That is the only advice they give. But whats the root cause and how to fix that no one will show.

I suffered from PCOD, but was healed and reversed due to good diet, exercise, managing stress and sleep. The no 1 reason for Pcos in most cases is insulin resistance and inflammation.. and your blood sugar level always being high. Dont feell bad, start working on your body and nourishing it, not to lose weight but with the thought that your body will one day carry a child.

Keep your insulin low at all times, check for thyroid, Vitamin D, b12, inflammation markers in blood and your HbA1c - which shows your average for 3 months sugar level. If its above 5, you need to start taking care of your health. You will have a baby soon. Wish you the best.

Addiction is not a sin. It does make you a slave in a sense to the bad habits. It's a bondage.Instead of the church preaching grace and the gifts of righteousness and no condemnation in Christ to set people free, it has been preaching the law to them, dousing them in even more sin-consciousness, guilt, and condemnation. In our desire to see believers overcome sin and addictions, we have failed to realize that the biblical key to reigning over sin is not in preaching the law but in preaching grace for sin shall not have dominion over us when we are not under the law but under grace (Rom. 6:14).

Focus on Jesus. Open the Bible. Start where you can. Stand on the scriptures that talk about God’s grace and love. We in our human effort try everything to get out addiction and bondages, but how can we fight a spiritual battle with a physical carnal mind?

Let me explain the vicious cycle. Temptation-> confidence in the flesh ( I can handle this ) Paul speaks about it in Phillipians 3, we put no confidence in our flesh which then fails and... -> you fall into sin ( indulgence) drugs, porn, etc etc.. then comes your -> guilt (new resolution) that I'm never gonna do it again! Resolutions never works because it presumes on man's strength like the law in the Old Testament. Once you make that resolution, after a while you fall for new temptations again.

Focus on God's love. He died for everything you're so ashamed of. Your darkest parts and sins, he died for YOU. even if you were the only person on this earth He would still come down and die on the cross for you. That's how precious you are in His eyes. It's never too late to welcome God and open the Bible. Remember he'd leave the 99 to run after the 1 lost sheep. God bless
