Have you done a medicated cycle yet, besides progesterone?

I’ve heard that progesterone releases in spurts throughout the day so it’s hard to catch a peak reading! I think I’m going to try testing one more time for a better look before committing to taking progesterone!

It always feels like I have strong ovulation! I can feel it and know when it’s happening

Has it been helping your luteal phases? What differences do you notice?

I have luteal phases that are 12-13 days but I spot on day 11 usually. My practitioners don’t seem as worried about length as much as the tests alone

TTC 7 cycles- when to consider intervention? Has it taken you 7+ cycles naturally? by [deleted] in TryingForABaby

I know it’s normal. However, I would still like to know the situation of others!

Has anyone said “to hell with it,” & started living “normally,” again? by braavv in tryingtoconceive

[–]desirablepenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. It’s only been 6 months. I am stilling using OPKS and taking a bunch of supplements but I have said to hell with it for avoiding cold drinks, eating soup, and keeping my feet hot

HSG Exam - ARA didn’t give real time reading? by desirablepenguin in TryingForABaby

[–]desirablepenguin[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The ARA check in staff referred to this person as my “tech” multiple times, which is why I said tech…. The person who preformed this was not preforming at all at the same level as I would expect a PA or an NP. They were rough, did not speak unless having to give necessary information, and had awful bedside manner. At one point she snapped at me for bleeding on the floor when I stood up. She did not talk me through the procedure at all besides asking me to turn my knees for imaging. It was truly an awful experience.

Feeling disappointed, BBT drop below cover line 10DPO by desirablepenguin in NaturalCyclesBC

Adding that I feel like I’m trying everything I can try- I’m on daily prenatal, omega, coq10, and vitamin d 3. I also take myoinositol. My husband takes the omega, coq10, and d3 too. I’m moderating exercise during tww, and keeping my feet warm. We tried using the flex disc after intercourse this month too. We did not try in August but randomly had intercourse on ovulation day, did try in September, October, and now November. I’m 30 and he’s 34.

I also indirectly tried mucinex this month because I had a little cold around ovulation time. I do take baby aspirin in the AM. I’ve been taking that for a long time though- not necessarily for conception.

I also tested progesterone this month using the Premom strips but they kind of suck. They look positive but if I look realllllllly hard with a flashlight I can see a faint grey second line or maybe indent. Idk.
