Default AF finally arrived with NPC + Femaprin :-)

i finally received AF on Wednesday of this week on Cycle day 59 after using NPC cream for exactly 7 days! I woke up on the morning of what would have been the 8th day and there was AF! i was soooo happy to see her :-) i have also been taking femaprin for about 6 weeks now along with a women's hormonal balance pill that contains dong quai, black cohosh, chasteberry, and red raspberry leaf.

my period doesn't seem different from any other and i had no PMS symptoms like i normally do which is: intense bloating and sore breasts. i also had a pretty decent cycle day 2, and my 2nd days are usually intense.

so again, everything works in due time. i must say that the NPC definitely was what jump started my cycle.

happy AF's and baby dust to everyone!

that's excellent news - I have just started my NPC in the hope it will do the same. Did you stop and wait for 48 hours before seeing AF?

I am glad to see AF come for you!!

I am going to wait 90 day on Femaprin before I use provera to induce AF!

thanks ladies.

Amber2- no, i didn't wait 48 hours. i was using the NPC cream twice a day, rubbing it alternatively on my stomach, thighs, and the bottom of my feet. once in the morning and one at night. i woke up on the 8th day to use more cream and there was AF. NPC will work :-)

capecoral28- keep it up with the femaprin! i'm still taking it as well.

Thanks for this I had better be prepared just in case, last AF was end of April and I have been quite generous with the cream!
