I will be starting soy isoflavones tomorrow, cd 3.

This will be my 11th cycle TTC, with two chemical pregnancies/ early miscarriages @ about 5weeks so far this year already.

I've read up quite a lot on SI, and just at the point now where I'm thinking, what the hell, I'll give it a go!

Anybody else TTC with soy isoflavones?

Oh no, how annoying spinning! Are you sure it's AF or could it be ov related? I've read that some women get a bit of spotting when the egg is released , though personally I've never had it.

Looks like af is on her way in on cd16?!! I have blood when wiping, sorry tmiBlush I have no idea what's happened this cycle but if this is af then I won't be taking soy again.

Haha metro metal sorry if I came across snotty it's all so confusing! Started temping this week for first time trying to get head round that 2 x

Metalhead · 08/11/2014 18:06

What I was trying to say I suppose is that you might not necessarily get a continuous increase in darkness, it might be slightly darker then lighter again the next day. But fx you'll get a +ive before your sticks run out! Grin

whitwoochantelle · 08/11/2014 17:50

I know there still negative metal I think I just live in hope it gets stronger LOL my new order opks nit here yet um down to 6 eek!

Metalhead · 08/11/2014 17:44

X-post, the line on that second one is stronger but still negative.

Metalhead · 08/11/2014 17:43

That's hard to say, I often get quite a few faint lines before my positive (sometimes up to a week). You'll just have to keep on testing I'm afraid, but if you usually have a 38 day cycle you might still have a bit of a wait! FYI, I took soy from CD4-8 this month and got my +opk on CD16.

I'm right in guessing it's in it's way?

Metalhead · 08/11/2014 17:12

That line is very faint whit, that's definitely not a positive IMO.

I have ewcm but no positive opk! I'm back in the game! (I think). A bit gutted the soy didn't bring my ovulation forward more though.

I've just posted a way tmi story about ewcm on the pregvember thread.

I'm utterly convinced the soy has affected my hormones- I just hope it's worth it!

NewEraNewMindset · 07/11/2014 20:32

I had a headache today but that could be a coincidence as I do get them occasionally. I am excitedly waiting for my EWCM to kick in lol. I'm hoping I'm going to be awash with the stuff Grin

Nice one for high temp metal.

How is your temp spinning? Is there a clearer pattern emerging on your chart. So frustrating for you not to know. Keep dtd and opk-ing as long as you can I suppose!

My temp is still up and opk's negative. I re-visited my chart and disregarded the Valium and migrane induced high temp and it looks much more like I ov'd on Sunday.

Does anyone else feel extra hormonal since taking the soy? I do! It's like a super early sting dose of pmt! I'm extra hungry, grouchy, tired and bloated. And my boobs are so heavy with really painfull nips. As an f-cup they are no fun to cart around in this state!

KittyVonCatsington · 07/11/2014 16:34

blood not 'look'!

KittyVonCatsington · 07/11/2014 16:33

Metal It can be an implantation dip (my implantation dip was at 6dpo with red look spotting at 5dpo and Saire, another poster, got hers at 4dpo positive two days later) or it can be a chorpus luteal dip when the ovarian "cyst" transfers to produce more supporting progesterone. Let us know what the temps do in the next few days!

KittyVonCatsington · 07/11/2014 16:29

Keep shagging either way EOD, just in case spinning, chick Grin

spinningirl10 · 07/11/2014 16:13

Well I'm cd14 and opk's are completely negative, not even a faint line. I've never ov'd this late.....or maybe I have, only time will tellGrin

NewEraNewMindset · 07/11/2014 08:03

Nice one Metal Grin

Metalhead · 07/11/2014 07:35

Morning ladies, my temp has shot up again this morning so looks like yesterday was indeed a secondary estrogen surge. Never had one of those before so must be down to the soy! Shame I'm only on 5dpo, would have been such a nice implantation dip... Grin.
