FluffyEwok · 08/04/2017 21:19

where you up to with treatment holly?

HollyWollyDooDah · 08/04/2017 21:20

Only diagnosed Thursday, waiting on 21 day blood results and appointment with gp to push for referral x

FluffyEwok · 08/04/2017 21:24

I had 7 rounds of clomid holly. It took 18 months to conceive. Hopefully you'll get answers soon!

HollyWollyDooDah · 08/04/2017 21:26

Thank you
Have been ttc for two years so I've got one answer, not a good one but hopefully I'll be able to have a plan and go from there

Does anyone have any family history?

My mum told me that my man (her mum) had pcos but my mum didn't, her ovaries shut down and she had to have a hysterectomy at 34 - I'm 28 (29 later this year)

FluffyEwok · 08/04/2017 21:31

My dad's mum took 4 years to conceive him and had diabetes as she gt older. She prob had pcos but didn't know. Still had two kids with no help in the 50's.
The rest of my family are super fertile it seems

ronniemipperton · 08/04/2017 22:04

So confused... my last AF was norethisterone induced as gynae wanted to take bloods and I don't have regular cycles. It finished on 25th March and I assumed I'd either have no AF (as per usual) or 28 days later if it was going to turn up. I never really count myself as having CDs as usually they'd be like CD254 but I guess I'm CD18 and AF seems to have arrived. I appreciate there isn't really any 'normal' in this situation but anyone had unexpectedly early AF after norethisterone or similar?

Thinking of you satsooma.

Elizabeth the fertility clinic should be able to give you advice, especially if your end goal is to concieve. Do you know what your FSH level is? As the lower it is the better it is. I would take what your Acupuncturist says with a pinch of salt until you speak with a specialist.

Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine and having nice weekends xx

Good luck sats x

YouBoggleMyMind · 09/04/2017 19:08

I'm scared to admit this cos I'm only 11dpo and there's still plenty of time for this to go down the shitter, but the brown discharge has pretty much gone. It's more of an off cream colour now. This has not happened before! Argh. Stress.

FluffyEwok · 09/04/2017 19:29

implantation? mine was like this I thought I was coming on My period!

YouBoggleMyMind · 09/04/2017 19:40

It's been for quite a few days... since 6dpo but rather than staying quite dark brown and sludgey, it's now very light brown milky discharge. Sorry for tmi!

FluffyEwok · 09/04/2017 19:43

lol it looks like a good sign let's hope it's a Christmas baby for you!

YouBoggleMyMind · 09/04/2017 19:46

I am fully expecting my body to be shit and let me down but hey ho!

SLady · 09/04/2017 19:57

I'm feeling good vibes for you boggle!

YouBoggleMyMind · 09/04/2017 20:27

Thanks. I feel foolish for saying these things as I know it may and isn't like to mean anything. I had a very vivid dream AF came last night.

SLady · 09/04/2017 21:16

It's never foolish to be optimistic. As with anything as long as there's hope then there's always reason to carry on. I'm waiting for AF to arrive naturally then I can start Clomid and my minds already run away with me hoping I'll concieve in August and have a spring baby which is what I've always wanted! Need to keep myself in check!

YouBoggleMyMind · 09/04/2017 21:30

I think I am excited but that also scares me cos I've had 9 bad experiences with clomid rounds so far. That's a lot. 2 years, 8.5 months of trying. I just want a bit of happiness that doesn't end in an early miscarriage. Sorry. I'm just scared.

AmyC86 · 09/04/2017 21:47

boggle I still have my positive pants on for us!!! Xx I've got my cd21 bloods on Friday xx today is cd21 xx testing from the following week. Currently I have very sensitive nips. Strangely enough, I can't get enough DTD at the moment 😶 lol

YouBoggleMyMind · 09/04/2017 21:53

You go girl! Make the most of the sex cos you blats won't want it once you're knocked up! Haha!

AmyC86 · 09/04/2017 23:02
