When to expect period - Provera

[EllaMenoPea]

As above really. I finished 5 days of Provera on Saturday to induce a bleed to start Clomid. When should I expect a period? Just wondering if anyone has any experiences. Google is telling me lots of different times. Getting impatient

And crampy. I feel crampy.

That all sounds encouraging Boggle Keep DTD and we'll be right here to do the waiting with you!

All sounds good boggle was thinking you'd ov today after that scan! Good luck! When is test day?

Oh good! I'm so glad you guys think it's ok. I've never felt these symptoms before, like ever! I think I'll take a test on the 17th. We dtd last night and will do tomorrow as well so should be plenty o sperm hanging about! I've got 3 FRER tests ready and waiting (1 is obvs not enough) xxx

Sounds good Boggle.

Bad news, good news. Bad news is AF arrived today. Good news is my CD 21 progesterone level was 191 (!) so it sounds like it wasn't a progesterone issue.

I'm due to fly to Europe on 14th July for a week (all paid for in Jan, we'd lose a grand if we cancel). Clinic won't let me start a cycle if I'm going away. Wwyd out of these options?

1. Go away, take progesterone while away, have bleed when back, start next menopur on 22nd July
2. Take my remaining 100mg clomid in long protocol form, and hope that that plus the fact that I've just done a menopur cycle successfully (ie I ov'd) might remind my body how to ov by itself. I can have a progesterone test when I'm back. If progesterone shows I didn't ov, take norethisterone to get bleed, start next cycle at beginning of August
3. Take a month off and hope that my body ov's by itself
4. Cancel holiday, lose £1k, start cycle on Mon.

I think DH and I need the holiday, we won't get another chance til November with various work project deadlines. I can't decide. I'm shattered and I keep crying. This fucking sucks.

Shit robber I'm so so sorry

Honestly if you feel able to I would have a month off, enjoy your break without looking at the cycle day and crack on as soon as you're back. But I obviously understand if a month feels like a lifetime right now.

Defo don't cancel your holiday robber. It sounds as though you need it.

Are you edging towards a certain option?

Xxx

Thank you. DH is in London getting an award at a swanky do tonight, so I'm glad for the virtual flowers and hand holding!

I think I'm leaning towards clomid... the long protocol 100mg has some evidence for kickstarting cycles if it follows an ovulatory cycle. It would feel like I'm doing 'something' even while having a break, iyswim?

I am so grateful for all of the women on this thread

I was thinking you could do the clomid on holiday too. At least you know you're doing something and relaxing at the same time!
Always here to look after you robber. You wonderful women have been my saviours over the last few months of ups and downs

Hello all, just checking in to find that I have more follicles to cheer on! Boggle exciting, exciting times! I'm so glad that things are happening for you! We're all here on the sidelines cheering you on with bottles of pineapple juice and tubes of pre-seed

Robber 191???!!!! WTF?! That's insane! I'm not sure what I would do, but I definitely wouldn't cancel my hol in your situation- we need that shit to keep us going! I reckon I would have to be doing something, so I think I'd probably take the clomid or the Norethisterone/Menopur, whichever you think is most likely to work, and whichever you would regret least if it didn't work (if that makes sense?)

Waves to everyone else.

PS, I sneezed violently earlier and a bit of pee came out. It begins... Note to self: Must start exercising pelvic floor more often.

Much love x x

eskimo! So lovely to hear from you! How are things? When are you due? Everything well with you and baby Eskimo?

Thanks for cheering me on. Really hope it works xxx

Lovely to hear from you Eskimo. Thanks to you all - decision made, clomid it is.

Keeping everything crossed for you both. I just know that it will happen soon for everyone on here. We are so fiercely proactive that it can't not happen!

Boggle Due date is 11th September. I'll be 30 weeks on Sunday Thankful for every minute, even the leaky vadge

Well if you and your leaky vag can hold on until the 12th September, that's my second wedding anniversary

Excellent decision robber. Will you start today? Hope you're ok this morning

robber I hope you're feeling happier today lovely. It's Friday!

How is everyone? Anyone seen amy?

I'm gutted for you Robber but I'm glad you're still going on holiday

How is everyone?

robber hope you're feeling better?

Pleased to get 3+ today on a CB digi, calmed the anxiety for 5 minutes!

Yay for the 3+ Ella Are you getting an early scan?

Put the test down ella! All is well! Glad you're doing ok. Any sickness? Xxx

Ha thanks boggle and moomin no I feel OK which isn't helping my paranoia but it's still early days and I wasn't sick with DD....

How are you feeling boggle? Any more ov symptoms?

No other symptoms really. I was very crampy and bloated last night but it seems to have gone today. I presume yesterday was when I ovulated. Still, we'll keep dtd until next week some time. I'm having my progesterone blood test on Friday xxx

Ok so I lied, I just got in my pajamas and my nips feel tender!!

What's everyone upto this Friday night? I'm watching the football with DH

Exactly the same as you boggle
