Default First month on Inositol/Lecithin

This is my first month/cycle on Inositol and Lecithin and I belive I O'ed 3 days ago (CD 18). (I usually do not O) I had a positive Ovulation test strip on that day and my temps have been up enough to confirm it. I'll just have to wait and see if hubby and I caught the egg or if I get my period in a few weeks. I"m not sure if the extra supplements helped, but at least it looks like a productive month. My acne has also been better and I've had only 1 migraine so far. I'm still taking them and I will let you know how my cycle goes.

p.s. here is the link to my fertilty chart if you are curious.

Hi there...
Congrats on the O, and good luck getting pg! I just wanted to know in what form was the lechithin and inositol???? Was it pill? If so, where did you get it, and what brand. How much did you take a day, and on what cycle days? Sorry so many questions, I am so curious!

GNC Inositol 500mg in the Am, 500mg at bedtime
Lecithin Capsules (From the health food store- says multi grain) 1200mg in the AM

I'm also taking Chromium Picolinate 200mg (I think) in the AM along with a multivitamin with extra folic acid.

I started taking them around the beginning of my last period (8/6) and I still take them now. I also dropped about 5 lbs since the beginning of the month. I am feeling a bit bloated and am up 1.5 lbs since ovulating, but it could be that I didn't get all of my exercise in. I hope I answered your question.

Well, I went to GNC and bought GNC Inositol 500, and Triple Lecithin 1200...I hope this is the right stuff...it says it has Soy lecithin and high choline lecithin?! My temps are up for the past 2 days, so maybe I O'd 2 days ago, I'll wait and see if anything happens this cycle, if not, I'm taking the inositol and lecithin! I hope it works...by the way Alicia, your FF chart looks SOOOOO GOOD!!!! I hope you are preggers

Thanks for your post. I have decided to continue taking the Inositol and Lecithin (yes I think you got the right kind), since it really has helped my acne. Or at least I think it has, at any rate, I'll just keep taking it. I hope I am pg too, 10 dpo and counting. NO real symptoms to speak of though. I'll just have to wait and see. Let me know how the supplements work for you.
