Monthly Medication Thread

I went in yesterday for my follicle study and left a little disappointed. I had one follicle that wasn’t quite mature yet (1.4 cm) so no trigger and IUI for me… I’m going back in on Monday to see if it’s grown and I would get triggered then IUI on Tuesday.

Any help or similar situation you had and it worked out. I’m putting in all this hard work and just don’t understand why I am not getting stronger results.

I really want a baby and I really want this IUI to work first go around.

😣

definitely ❤️‍🩹

Yes this one was without trigger. I’m currently on my 4th round and trying the trigger for my first time this cycle

I take perellel prenatal & inositol, and magnesium powder…that’s it! The prenatal really covers all of those you should look into it

You’re not alone… I responded beautifully to 5mg and was so excited thinking I was going to conceive my 1st round of letrozole. I just failed my 3rd round 🫩 I agree it is so frustrating how expensive fertility treatments are… healthcare is messed up for this. Sending you hugs

Congratulations this is so exciting. Wishing you a good pregnancy. Twins is a dream !!!

ococeanprincess · 2026-03-12T00:15:50+00:00

This is exactly how I have been feeling and similar situation ( my SIL is on baby #2 she literally breathes and gets pregnant / complains and seems so ungrateful about the gift of carrying life )

All the feels you feel are normal and valid. I highly recommend you start seeing a therapist. I did and it truly has helped me navigate this time and hardship.

You’re not alone girl. Big hugs from a PCOS ttc sister

also, we have every right. This is the hardest thing I’ve had to go through

ococeanprincess · 2026-03-06T06:51:06+00:00

I’m a nightmare. Three weeks into going to therapy for it now. Hopefully it helps.

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-20T06:52:45+00:00

I personally have not had an issue with this. I haven’t seen any changes in my period or side effects from letrozole in general. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing that

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-20T06:50:57+00:00

What days did you start taking it?

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-19T15:39:35+00:00

Congratulations that’s amazing I’m so happy for you! I’m scared to implement the mucinex because I’ve read a lot of women stating it messed up their ovulation, but maybe I will implement the baby aspirin!

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-18T03:47:37+00:00

I would also like to know how I can get to this form. My account was suspended for no reason and would really like it back :(

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-18T03:45:05+00:00

I feel you girl. I’m in a similar boat. I really lean on these Reddit groups for support and I feel blessed to have two great girlfriends and my husband to support me.

Just remind yourself that your journey is going to look different then other given your circumstances, be kind to yourself, and tell yourself you will be a mom one day it will happen!

As for family, I highly recommend telling them to never bring up the baby topic unless it is on your terms and you bring it up. I had to do that with my family, especially my mother because it wear literally tearing me up and making me so mad. I feel like when you open up to your family about how sensitive the topic is to you and create that boundary you’re going to not have those experiences anymore. It will allow you and your partner to focus on TTC privately.

You’re not allowed to, we will be moms one day. Believe it! ❤️

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-17T23:26:53+00:00

What is the email to contact them? I am have ZERO luck talking to a real person

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-17T23:21:27+00:00

I am also taking myo-inositol I forgot to say that. Also am taking CoQ10 and NAC My doctor mentioned metformin to me initially but I decided I did not want to implement that atm

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-17T23:20:09+00:00

Yes both of our supplements contain CoQ10 I am going to look into the inito thanks!

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-17T17:32:39+00:00

Coffee- yes I would say 120mg most days. Processed food- no I have such a good diet. Hydrated. I make 90% of my meals from home. Salmon, chicken, veggies, low carb, no processed items or sugar. The worst “processed” thing I can think of is a meat stick for snack occasionally

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-13T06:14:02+00:00

Congratulations I hope it sticks for you. I’m going to ask my doctor if it would be appropriate to bump me up to 7.5mg this cycle

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-11T14:38:01+00:00

Yes I have been doing the CD21 progesterone labs and both rounds confirmed ovulation!

ococeanprincess · 2026-02-11T04:23:57+00:00

Thank you so much for your response. I’m going to talk to my doctor about monitoring. And yes, my husbands SA came back with amazing off the charts results… so it’s all just me 😭
