@Muddysocks1 wow that’s crazy! Yeah I think I do want to do that, where did you get the antibiotics from when the tests came back? Il defo do that and if you have a referral code that would be amazing please. I guess it’s worth a shot xx

I had had a private consultation online, so they prescribed them (they said when I get the test results back to email them over and they just emailed back a prescription) but I wonder if your gp would. You can also have a consultation with Daye with your results and they might too but I haven tried that. When I told my gp she was on board and had read about vaginal Microbiome.

I think this is the discount code: joindaye-8190ff

@Muddysocks1who did you have a private consultation with? I’ve been looking at DAYE

Plan Your Baby - it’s a telehealth clinic based in London so you have consultation online and contact via email mostly, but scans and blood tests at satellite clinics locally. They’ve been really good and not that expensive

Thank you @Muddysocks1x

@Thisisouryear2025not yet on cycle 2 ttc#2 and my lp was so long last month i think i probs had a second peak and missed it which would have made no difference as DH had a footy injury preventing us DTD day around peak day and anytime afterwards. Just said as DS keeps asking for a sibling

DS has very mild ASD so we have made loads of lifestyle changes- clean swaps like laundry detergent, no plastics, no seed oils, hes GF too, we buy organic fruit & veg, try to make food swaps with clean ingredients etc- some of which has naturally rubbed down on me & DH, we do lots of co-regulation activities together too which helps his/my stress levels, its made a world of difference to him and im a much more positive less stressed person, im a lot more easy going now, kind of it is what it is sort of attitude..no longer so wound up over things, i have energy and no longer fatigued- still trying to lose the 4stone but thats not happening with estrogen imbalance but my periods etc used to be long and heavy and painful and now they are still long but not as heavy or painful, gna try mucinex this cycle too!

@Ec2808im sorry, big hugs, hopefully AF comes soon and u can look forward to the next cycle x

Also just on the miscarriage investigations thing - I was listening to prof Shehata on a podcast this week who was saying you should actually be seen after second miscarriage, or first if it wasn’t an early one, but unfortunately it’s often 3 miscarriages for recurrent miscarriage clinics, but that doesn’t mean your gp shouldn’t do tests or further investigations before then.
interesting they had two specialists on and both gave different reviews on progesterone and DNA fragmentation, so it’s hard to know what to believe! It’s the latest two episodes of “don’t tell me to relax” x

I just listened to this one in the gym this morning!

ChaE05 · 07/06/2025 10:23

@Muddysocks1so sorry if it is a chemical, thinking of you and also everything crossed it isn't!! ❤️

@Plumchumm That’s ok lovely. Well if you had a healthy pregnancy literally a few months back I would probably not panic too much, this could have just been a one off egg. I reckon that can happen to all of us. I would request that they do another progesterone test at 7/8dpo for at least another month or even two if possible. Then if both come back low maybe your body needs a kick start or something and some help.
I also had two terminations before, many many years ago, so totally understand that sometimes we have to make those decisions as it just isn’t the right time.
Don’t beat yourself up about that, I know it’s hard, I often wonder what life would be like if I had kept those babies but I then remember that if I had, life would look very very different now and I wouldn’t have been who I am today where I know I can take care of children better than ever.
It’s odd, I don’t know the link with the length of the LP, the girl I was chatting about in my earlier message had a 12 day LP, so adequate, and she had this issue so I’m not really sure. I guess a LP defect is where your body produces enough progesterone but it drops way too quick? I’m not sure on this but I think it could be different things.
This is your first month, take it easy, try again next month and then ask for another progesterone test and see what that says and you may find it was just that one not so good egg x

You are so kind, thank you 🥹x

No need to worry!!🥰 You just used it topically (on your scalp) not internally, the greatest concern is when it’s ingested. The skin on the scalp absorbs very little especially in such a short time as 5 min! In this stage, the embryo is just beginning to implant and develop. There is no direct uterine stimulation from a brief external application like this. You can be super-calm!!❤️

Iris2024 · 07/06/2025 10:45

Morning ladies, I’m sorry to read so many of you feeling so low and experiencing chemicals. Sending so much love ❤️

Im just catching up with messages.

Did a test this morning at 10DPO and BFN attached. Feel sad as don’t know why not catching 😔

@Plumchumm 🩷🩷 I’m having a down day today… think AF is on her way as I normally get down and moody and stuff before AF x

Hi everyone. Hoping I can join you for June. This will be cycle #7 TTC no 2. I really thought we had a chance as ovulation was an earlier and we DTD every day but alas AF arrived this morning.

we have just started investigations with the hospital. I’m 40 in Sept so worried about egg quality. Have a HyCosy in a few weeks to rule out na issues with fallopian tubes. Apparently that can give things a boost so fingers crossed.

anyone else staring investigations?

Hi lovely, I’m starting investigations. We are 41 and we conceived first try with our daughter who is 6! Had an ultrasound scan and internal on Thursday and they confirmed I’m ovulating. Praying we get our babaas ❤️ Nice to see someone my age to chat to.

Thisisouryear2025 · 07/06/2025 10:49

@peanutForever that’s all really good changes and it’s still really early for you so hopefully it will happen soon. Xx

ChaE05 · 06/06/2025 11:17

Hi @Midnight00welcome! I am on cycle 7 trying to concieve number 2 also. Currently 8dpo. I have just turned 38.
I have bloods booked in for day 3 of mu next cycle and also a pelvic ultrasound. All done through the GP. Other half is going to pay for private semen analysis too as his next available GP appointment isn't until middle of July!
How did you go about getting the hycosy? Hadn't heard of it. Just had a Google! X

Hi lovely, I had a form and semen pot for my partner to take to the hospital and book in on the NHS. We have a child and my partner has 2 so we are shocked we are getting so much help. Worth checking so don’t have to pay?

peanutForever · 07/06/2025 10:51

@Thisisouryear2025i hope so lets hope this month is a lucky one for all of us xx

@peanutForever have everything crossed 🩷🩷🩵🩵

ChaE05 · 07/06/2025 10:55

@Iris2024oh brilliant! Thanks for this. We will definitely ask the doctor. Did you have to wait long? Not for the results but to do the semen analysis x

ChaE05 · 07/06/2025 10:59

@Iris2024the BFNs are so disheartening. This is why I don't want to test. I'm 9dpo. When are you due AF? You still have time! Youre not out yet x
What cycle are you on? Xx

ForGiddyDreamer · 07/06/2025 11:08

@ChaE05 when do you think you might test?

I am 7dpo today. Flo is predicting AF on Thursday but that would just be 12dpo for me. I think the app is out by a few days. We are staying with my family next weekend and away Thursday-Monday. I am minded to test before we go so I don't get the big crush of a BFN while away and then have to save face.

I had the form and pot as soon as we started investigations. Just haven’t booked yet but will be now that I’ve had my scan, I think it must be low quality eggs if I’m being confirmed as ovulating? Have you been referred to fertility team? They sent me the form for semen to book and also the chlamydia test for me to do before I have a hycosy?

I’m on cycle 9 and we are 41. We tried last January 2024 for 6 months (chemical the first month) as had faint line that disappeared. Then we are on cycle 3 this year from April to now.

@megan345 10DPO today and BFN

ChaE05 · 07/06/2025 11:15

@Iris2024that's brilliant they are doing all this for you. I'm unsure if I am under the fertility clinic ye. So my GP did some standard bloods which were all okay. Then the next thing I got a text from the surgery saying as part of the work up for the fertility clinic they require a pelvic ultrasound and gave me a number to book. I have this week after next. They sent another message to say fertility clinic require bloods to be taken fay 1-4 of your cycle. So I've booked that in. So I guess it sounds as though once these are done I will be seen by fertility clinic? I think il send GP a message Monday to confirm the steps and mention my partner and semen analysis. X
