Thanks everyone. The only thing different I did was take progestrone in the second half of my cycle and added the fish oil to my supplements. I also have been taking for months Myo inositol and Serrapeptase and Vitamin D3 which most women are deficient and it's very important for TTC. I took 2000iu per day.

Hi all!! Sorry not been on but been having awful time at gone and awful time with clinic I've basically told them to f* !! As o think their useless! So I'll be going it alone with my Gp I am currently cd61 and have just started AF
Now yes I did say I didn't want anything to bring my AF on as I wanted it to do naturally!! Still no scam no nothing other than a blood test for pregnancy!! Nothing else!
Anyway long story short I have GP app wed and they are aware of situation will be sending for scan etc kits to make sure no cysts because why did I not ovulate or did I and what happened basically?!! So I be starting clomid on cd 2 tonorow probably! Aslong as I get a strong flow vefore 12 which I'm pretty sure I will as it's coming fast lol
And then will be giving up! Had no explanation about what happened I feel in the lurch and it's not been a cheap process!!!

@lastbany I'm so sorry they've been so useless and you have had no answers. Make sure you get your CD21 bloods done this time to confirm ovulation and I'd be pushing for a scan too given what happened before x

chloedancer897 · 17/05/2021 23:30

@PurpleUnicorn01 what makes you think you don't want to take clomid this month? It's worth a try even though you have IVF soon x

PurpleUnicorn01 · 18/05/2021 00:06

Just worried about any side affects i guess

lastbany · 18/05/2021 00:16

@chloedancer897 the doctor sees to be positive they will send me for one (gp) I just can't believe I've had a cycle like this?! Never ever had one like this after it's!!
I have been pretty worried tbh

can i ask a question is anyone have 5 mature follicle with clomid or if u have r u gonna continue trying or skip that cycle.

chloedancer897 · 18/05/2021 01:34

@PurpleUnicorn01 is this your first time taking it? Side effects are usually pretty minimal, my worst were my mood was all over the place for about 3-4 days and I felt quite bloated. You can overstimulate and are told to look out for that but I think it's rare enough. Do what's right for you xx

@lastbany at least your GP is looking after you! It's so strange that your cycle went like that though. I wish they had an explanation for you x

chloedancer897 · 18/05/2021 01:35

@lovelly what does your doctor suggest you do? The concern is multiples. I would go with the advice your doctor gives x

lastbany · 18/05/2021 02:18

@chloedancer897 fingers crossed the sc an blood test will check! I'm in twominds if to take this lot of clomid?!! Don't wanna wait another month till found out but ahhhh

my doctor call me today and she said do your trigger shot and she scheduled me for iui on wenesday she wants me to continue because last 2 cycle i have 2 mature follicles but i didn't get pregnant so this cycle there is low chances of multiple but there is hope that may be i get pregnant because this is my last cycle of clomid my and my husband all tests are good but don't know why i fail last 2 cycle so i did trigger shot today to continue this cycle as doctor said but still i m little worried.

chloedancer897 · 19/05/2021 22:12

@lovelly I'm sure your doctor wouldn't advise it if it wasn't safe. Good luck this cycle xx

@lastbany you'll kick yourself if you don't use clomid this cycle. Try taking it days 2-6 this time x

lastbany · 19/05/2021 22:18

@chloedancer897 yep today is cd2 going to take tonight!! Don't feel happy to lol anyone else at the beginning of the cycle??

chloedancer897 · 21/05/2021 18:35

Anyone close to testing? I'm only 5dpo. This month is dragging for me!

Shelleybe · 21/05/2021 19:15

How’s everyone?

@chloedancer897 I’m still getting high on clearblue not peak yet... so not for while for me... hate the TWW.. how you feeling? Are you going test before AF x

fara21 · 21/05/2021 19:40

@chloedancer897 Hey thanks, hopefully you'll get your BFP this monthSmilemy scan appointment on the 31st of May, 21 progrestrone blood test and then the TWW and hopefully my BFPGrin

fara21 · 21/05/2021 19:42

I'm actually very concerned as i got Fertomid this month instead of clomid is fertomid the same thing as clomid?

chloedancer897 · 21/05/2021 22:20

@Shelleybe what CD are you? Make sure you BD anyway! I find the OPKs less accurate with clomid. Not testing early this month, it's costing me a fortune 😂

@fara21 I don't know, sorry! Did you doctor mention changing the prescription?x

chloedancer897 · 21/05/2021 22:21

@fara21 I just googled it and it's the same as clomid. Just a different brand name x

lovelly · 21/05/2021 22:38

@chloedancer897

chloedancer897 · 22/05/2021 11:54

@lovelly we are around the same time then! When will you test or will you just wait?
