Continuation of previous threads new name...

Update on the side effects of soy isoflavones, I havent had any after two days at 120mg per day taking them right before I go to sleep. Only bit of dry mouth and very thirsty since I woke up this morning which is tough doing the two hour pee hold to test opks lol. But other than that nothing else.

@candycrush2298 That's brilliant. No side effects. Well done :) and only 3 more days to go. Hooray. Definitely worth a try until you get seen properly by the NHS as well. I bet you'll be pregnant before being seen :D

@Elakiya I know whoohoo for no side effects lol. I would have dealt with it either way though. I got the idea in my head that I am doing it hahahaha. 3 more days and then lets see what the cycle brings.

Yes lets hope that I get pregnant before being seen lol. That would be amazing!!!

How are you today? You OK?

I bought some last night ready for next cycle so I’m following this @candycrush2298

@NamechangeTTC I hope you won't need it and that you are already preggo but if you not then let's hope this works. Really really excited to see how this goes

@candycrush2298 Yep I am at an all new high and feeling invincible lol. I know AF is arriving. However I've dived into work this morning being as fully focussed as possible. Also planning out my studying ready for exams at the end of next month and have decided to put OPKs on hold and focus on myself for 2 months and try to get back into shape. I'll be going to see the gynae in October as I had decided previously.

@Elakiya wow thats such incredible news. Well done!! I think that is really really great. Good luck with the planning for your exams and good luck for when they come about I know you will kick ass.
Self care is always so important so well done on doing what you need to do

I've been on a shopping spree... I know what I'm doing with the spy's ones.. But can someone remind me what I should do with taking the others?

@Welliedays wow you're shopping up a treat lol. Are you on a pre conception vitamin like pregnacare or seven seas? Cuz I think vit c is already in those and I cant remember what to do with a coq10. @Elakiya any ideas?

@candycrush2298 no, I'm just taking vit d and folic acid as two separate pills at the moment..k think I just take vit C daily all the way through my cycle like I'm doing with the other two?

@Welliedays yes think vit c one a day is perfect. My pregnacare has 90mg in so if yours has more or less the same mg then yeah 1 a day. I just did a quick search and it said 200mg -300mg per day if you're over 25 you should take ubiquonal as that's the broken down version of coq10 if under 25 your body should be able to break it down just fine. Not sure how true or if that's definitely accurate as I literally only spent 30seconds on Google lol

Thank you @candycrush2298 x

Ahh no sorry you’ve had a chemical too @Welliedays it’s so cruel

@Kaybobx (think it was you) I went to miller and carter yesterday it was so tasty!

I’m
Seriously considering soy isoflavons but heard they can reduce luteul phase which is the last thing I need
I ovulate cd 19-21 though

@Boc86 I havent heard of it shortening luteal phases must have missed that. Will I promise to be the guinea pig so in about 3 weeks if it didn't work this cycle I can tell you if it shortened my luteal phase or not.

I have read it can bring ovulation forward for those who ovulate later and possibly make ovulation a little later for those ovulate early (I ovulate early usually between cd12-14) so will see if I am later or still normal.

Did you go for your bloods already?

@Welliedays I think the Vit C and CoQ10 is once a day

@candycrush2298 bloods at 4:20
It was on that post of someone’s on here that it was mentioned it can shorten LP. I think I’ll grab it anyway and try it next week as I’ll be cd1 from this Friday

Thanks @elakiya, I've had a Google and it says it's not been tested for during pregnancy, so I'll maybe stop taking it once I've ovulate just in case 🤷🏼‍♀️

Good luck with your bloods @boc86

@Boc86 OK fab!! Hopefully they process it super fast!!!

I am still hopeful that you will not be CD1 on Friday. But that's me hold out hope until the last minute.

Oh well shows how good I read things through then 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I must have only been looking for the good stuff 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Welliedays think thats a fab plan to stop at ovulation. Oooooh this is all getting so exciting one of these have to work right 🤣🤣

I’m very crampy and stabby today.

Also unproductive. That’s unrelated.

Love it @namechangettc I'm also unproductive today too 🙈 not feeling any cramps, sickness, and my boobs aren't massively sore either... So I'm not feeling confident today . I hope your crampy and stabby is a good sign

Cycle day 13 and no line progression yet. Glow predicts ovulation on CD18... but in my window from today..

@ReginaaPhalange hey!! How you doing? Hopefully won't be too long until you start getting positive opks. Are you using the CB opk as well?

I hopefully will enter my fertile window by the end of the week. Hopefully we ovulate together ❤

@NamechangeTTC hope you feel better soon xx

@NamechangeTTC I've just started feeling cramping too ugh!

@boc86 yes it was me that went to Miller and Carter, just got home was lush!

You've all had a huge chat since this morning so just catch up haha!

@candycrush2298 I'm good thanks! How are you? Heading through to go have a look at a car, so I'm basking in the air con 🤣🤣

I'm not going to use CBA all month, just when I start getting darker lines on the other OPKs.

Didn't AF just start? How long are your cycles? Xx
