Not sure if i am just being silly but my cycle is usually 29-30 day. Day 33 today never been this late expect for once when i had just had the coil removed. Woke up really early monday morning cramps etc so thought it was on its way but these went after an hour and nothing since. Dont feel premenstrual at all but did a test on monday and wednesday both negative. I am a bit worried because of past ectopic do these always show up on pregnancy tests. Thought I might ring Gp but she probabley think i am going slowey mad probabley am! Just wish it would hurry up now. If I was pregnant would it definatley show up on day 33. What should I do?

WAYZEE; The ovarian drilling was the first treatment which was offered to me, I have not had any experience of any of the drugs you mention in your post. Have you tried the verity website for pcos sufferers?? sorry i cant do links, the site isnt as user friendly as mn but if you are looking for advice, they have tons of helpful posters. At the time of the drilling, i also had to have a large dermoid cyst removed, but my periods have been regular although often different cycle lengths. However the diffences between the cycle lengths has reduced.
Will let you know if its been successful if i test positve before April - thats when next gyny appt is for plan b.. ... Not sure what plan b involves but am sure it will be drug treatment of some kind.
Hope this helps x

congratulations cedar12 so nice to hear something positive.

i have pcos i have a ds whos nearly 3 who i conceived naturally but was diagnosed with pcos last year after trying to conceive since i had my ds. i had missed miscarriage last october and have been desperatley trying since.

pussycatmomma i notice you mention you have had ovarian drilling what was it like? this has been mentioned to me as an option if im not pregnant by my follow up appointment in april. been taking clomid and synarel but they dont think its worked so far 10 and 15 day scan showed no developing follicles so they stopped synarel 26 days ago and ive just finished cyclogest 2 days ago to induce bleed to start all over again. the strange thing is i feel more pg now than when i was but dont know if its all the drugs messing with my hormones i soooo want to be pg. ive done a test today first response and negative but dont know if too early keep feeling like going to start af but then pain stops.

fingers crossed for everyone.

I didnt get a poitive until day 37 my cycle is usually 29-31 days. But last month I did ovulation tests which I did until about day 18 or 19 then got fed up as I thought I would ov at about day 16-17. So I must have ovulated after day 19-20 so would have been due on about 14 days after that. Hope that make sense. Hope you get some good news to pussycatmomma.

omg!!!!! Congratulations Cedar!!! am thrilled for you, so happy for you. Good luck with the blood tests and everything, I hope all goes well for you.
gosh, how lovely to read of someone actually getting their bfp!
sometimes i feel as if no one ever does, especially not me!
How many days were you when you actually tested bfp?

clothears · 17/01/2007 17:19

Thanks pussycatmomma, did a re test on monday and it was positive! Still cant believe it. But trying not to get to excited as I need to have blood test etc so they can rule out an ectopic as I had one before. Had a blood test today and will have another one on friday and get results on monday. I hope you get a positive result to.I think someone got they wires crossed some where but I dont have pcos. Any way good luck my friend has pcos and has 2 boys so I am sure it will happen for you to good luck.

hi cedar, i just wanted to say Good luck for when you re-test. I HOPE its bfp for you. I am in a similar boat, cd32 tomorrow, no sign of af. I also have pcos so cycles can be all over, no idea if i ovulated, but had ovarian drilling surgery in Sept, and next gyny appt is April. I am sooooooooo hoping me and dh can get preg by then, all by ourselves. Otherwise its drugs i think. I will keep my fingers crossed for you. Good luck x

Glad you can finally get on with trying again, good luck next month impatience. Still nothing with me sure i am not pg, did another test this morning left it for full ten mins very very faint line phoned clear blue they said it sound like it may be to thin to be positive. They are going to send me a digital test. I have one more test in the cupboard so might try and not wee for the next 4 hours then repeat it. Could pregnancy test be adictive.

Hi Cedar, just to let you know I finally got af this morning. Day 44 (not 47 as I said yesterday: lost the ability to multiply by 7!) Don't feel the usual disappointment, instead relieved I can just get on with this next month. Guess in my heart I knew I wasn't pg. Any sign either way for you yet?

Impatience · 14/01/2007 14:35

Oh no, cedar: not a Sign to toment yourself with!

Its a pain isnt it impatience I hope yours get back to normal soon. Now I wish it would just hurry up so we can start trying again.

Impatience · 14/01/2007 13:07

Cedar, I'm not trying to outdo you, but I am usually 28 day reliably, and here I am on day 47, still no sign, and not even the faintest evaporation line on a pg test! As if the 2ww wasn't long enough...

Hope you find out soon

Day 36 today but still nothing but did another test yesterday which was negative. I am sure it would show up by now on a test. Just worried as we have been trying for so long some thing else might be wrong, like i am not ovulating or not ovulating ever month and with only one tube it could make it pretty dificult. Not feeling to fed though I am see the consultant again on tuesday for follow up after lap and dye so should be able to ask him lots of questions.

Sorry - I thought you were referring to ovulation sticks...

Good luck and hope you get your BFP... Like someone else said BFN can be false readings, but BFP don't happen...so lets hope the tests are wrong.. xx

I meant the clear blue pregnancy test not ovulation test. I just thought it was a bit strange as I am usually regular. I havent got pcos.

Hi AttilaTheMeerkat - hang my head in shame..

The guy that scanned me the other day said that because my ovulation was late on about CD20, I would get my period late at around CD34. As he said that I should get my period 14 days after ovulation... sorry might not of explained correctly.

I was just trying to say that if you ovulate late, then your period will be late.

AttilaTheMeerkat · 11/01/2007 17:56

rahrah1,

oh dearie me.

OPK's are not of any use at all if you've been previously diagnosed with PCO. These kits measure the amount of LH; if you are one of many women who produce an excess level of this hormone (a common problem with polycystic ovaries for instance) the kit will just read that instead.

"He did tell me because I was ovulating so late that my period would not come for another 14 days until after I would ovulate, which would make me much later than my normal 28-31 days"

I sighed when I read that. I don't know who told you the above but what he actually told you was a load of old rubbish!!.

Ovulation does not always occur on the 14th day; this is even less likely if PCO is an issue!. You should also be aware that it is quite possible to have periods without ovulating at all.

rahrah1 · 11/01/2007 17:39

I think there the ones I used. I started using them on CD10 and I got a line everyday and one day the line got darker, but none were darker than the control line. I gave up by about CD16, thinking that I must of ovulated on the day I got the darker line. I went for a scan on CD19 (as just having some investigations) and he told me I had not even ovulated yet! So thought the sticks were useless but in fact it was my body! Typical...

He did tell me because I was ovulating so late that my period would not come for another 14 days until after I would ovulate, which would make me much later than my normal 28-31 days.

Anyway good luck, all the best XX

Thats what I thought mum of monsters. Has any one else had a wrong result with clear blue

OP posts:
MerlinsBeard · 11/01/2007 17:09

just to add a diferent perspective, i just had a 35 day cycle for no reason. Sometimes we ovulate later/earlier its not a prescise (sp?) science - sorry i know thats not what u wanted to hear
