Hi all--has anyone had any luck with ovulation taking spi tablets?
could you let me know how many you take a day and on what days?
I bought spi 40mg
thanks

I am now on day 2 and really wanted to start taking the spi tomorrow. If anyone could help me with the dosage I would greatly appreciate it.

I've O'd 5 times when taking SPI. The first time I took the powder in milk CD 5-9 and O'd CD 18 with a 32 day cycle. The rest of the time, I took Nature's Bounty capsules CD 3-7 and O'd CD 15 with a 29 day cycle, twice CD 19 with a 33 day cycle, and once CD 17 with a 32 day cycle.

I don't know for sure if it was the SPI or other factors though. I started synthroid the same month I started SPI and a month after that metformin. Right now I'm just taking synthroid alone, and it's CD 12 today with no signs of O yet.

The first month I used 1/2 scoop of the powder CD 5-9 and O'd CD 18. The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th month I took 2 40 mg capsules CD 3-7 and O'd CD 15 and the next 2 cycles CD 19, and the 5th month I took 3 40 mg capsules CD 3-7 and O'd CD 17. This is the first month I haven't taken SPI and it's CD 15. Usually, that's when I start seeing EWCM and I haven't ssen any yet.
