Points: 1,513.00 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 1,513.00 |  Lost 30 pounds...but no AF yet
I am so excited. I have lost 30 lbs since February. It feels good to get into some clothes I haven't worn in 5+ years. 
I am disappointed my AF has not come returned yet. On Monday, I thought it was happening. As soon as I got excited about it, AF went away almost immediately. Why did I just spot one time? I took Clomid for 3 months and had lots of discharge. I guess that was a sign I was ovulating. That is all fine and good, but where is AF? 
I have an appt with my OBGYN in Monday morning. I hope she can shed some light on this. No period since Jan. 30th. I'm feeling a little nervous about my appt. Not sure what's next.
Niki

Congrats on the weight loss.
I have a question for you. You said that you took three rounds of clomid...but you haven't had a AF since Jan? Shouldn't you have a AF after or before you start Clomid?

Yes. In normal circumstances, Clomid is taken within 5 to 7 days of the bleeding cycle. I have tried Provera so many times with no success. The doctor thought the Clomid would help bring AF back. Right now, I am so frustrated. I want to feel normal again.
Thank you for the encouragement and well wishes. I will keep you posted concerning my doctor visit on Monday.
Thanks, Niki

My appt did not go very well on Monday. She wants me to double the Clomid to 100 mg for 3 more months and then see a RE specialist. I don't feel comfortable taking that medication again. So, I called the specialist and have an appt on Wed. I was so surprised she can see me so soon. When she found out what I have been going thru since Jan. she said "the sooner the better". Finally a doctor who takes iniatitive. I am a little nervous and excited at the same time.
I have a question. Last week, I was experiencing pelvic pain on my left side. I could actually feel a lump. Also, had some watery discharge with streaks of blood. What could this be?
Hugs
Niki
