faith- DCI is d-chiro inositol, another form of inositol, which was found to be helpful for pcos women, according to a study. Many cysters claim that it has helped them regulate AF and O. I'm waiting for my buckwheat farinetta. I am supposed to make muffins out of it and eat 2 a day which will give me the dose I need, 1200mg of DCI. I am willing to try it. I can't take met right now because I'm on other meds again so I'm trying the farinetta while I wait.

Question....if my BBTs go down after FF has showed O(this is 5 dpo), will it take the crosshairs off? Will it say that I did not ovulate at all?
My BBTs went down starting today and I wonder if BBTs continue to stay low the next few days, does that mean I didn't O?

Leilanibaby - as I understand it, once you have ovulated, your temperatures should stay higher than your pre-ovulation temps until you get your period (or longer if you are pregnant). One low temp is nothing to worry about (I think) - but if your temps remain in the lower range again for a few days, it is possible (probable?) that you did not ovulate. I'm sure others will correct me if I'm wrong! It could be that your hormone levels are trying to reach the threshold needed to ovulate but not quite getting there.

Here are my charts for the last 2 cycles:

Reckon I ovulated in Cycle 03/20/2008 (top one) but not in Cycle 01/15/2008 (bottom one). I have heard that PCOS women's temp charts often resemble the rocky mountains...that made me feel better that I wasn't the only one!

Keep watching the temps for the next few days and see how the overall pattern looks. May as well consider youself still fertile for the time being, though...wouldn't do any harm!

Good luck,

Lil.

Cindy - i would say, that you are still in the boat.... as long as those temps go back up. one drop OK, but anymore than that... takes you further away from the boat.

Leilani-In my experience, it is worth the money to buy the DCI. I live in Grand Forks (where they make the bwf flour) and have made the muffins. OMG-they are horrible. You have to eat SO much of that flour to get enough DCI into your system. The DCI concentrate you just take a little scoop, put it in water and drink it. Just my 2 cents...good luck either way!

LeilaniBaby

Thanks ladies, you are all wonderful

By concentrate, do you mean the pills that chiralbalance sells? These are way expensive. I'll have to wait for a special occasion to ask for these as a gift. I think I'll continue to eat the muffins to see if it helps. I did find that eating them with whipped cream (fat free) with a little splenda helps me get them down.

That's where I got mine. I got it in powder form though, years ago, I guess they put it in capsules now. I guess I'd buy 60 caps for $142 and see how it works. If it does, I'd invest in the bigger bottle. Save up for it-it may be what you need to get pg!

Just wondering something that I hope is a quick question. Yesterday morning's temp was 97.0 (on the low end for me) with my OPK neg, spent the day in the sun and got burnt on my arms and face. Today's temp was 97.95, with a pos OPK. Do I assume I've ovulated, or was my raise in temp due to my sunburn?

Thanks!

carrie1602

Your temp rises after a positive opk, so, I'd say your high temp was due to sunburn, but that your temp will stay up due to ovulating soon after the positive opk! Get busy girl!

Hi girls, i'm wondering if someone can look at my chart. FF says i o'd on cd 16, but because i'm a slow riser i think i might have o'd on the 18th? Any ideas?
