Exactly, last cycle i had my day 21 prog test and i told them i hadnt ovulated and they wouldnt listen....i rang for my results and they said oh sorry you havent ovulated...i was like DUH i told YOU that!! Then i ovulated on cd34!!!! When i asked my doc about having the prog test later he just said No we only do it on day 21.....DUH!!!!! its so frustrating!!! So dont panic if it says you havent ovulated!! Cos u may o late, the worst case scenario is if you dont O you just need to have your clomid dose upped a bit xxx but iam praying for ya honey xxxx
I always know i O as i get pain around my ovary area, cramping, and i get very light pink spotting maybe once on the day of O, so along with my temps and opks im all good lol

TSH 2

Progesterone 1 = day three of CD should be more than 1.5 however 7dpo should be less than 15

Prolactin 129 should be less than 24 Increased prolactin levels can interfere with ovulation.

FSH 6.7 on cd 3 should be about 6 -20 so ur fine there FSH shows ovarian reserves under 6 is excellent 6 - 9 very good, +13 means diminished e.g menopause

LH 25.3 = LH surge day that blood was taken

Testosterone 2.6 = cant help here as I don’t know if it is free or total testosterone over 50 is considered high but I think they may have tested for free and the number should be between .7 to 3.6 so ur ok on the that

TSH 2 = Thyroid Stimulating Hormone should be between 0.4 and 4 so ye ok here

What I can conclude is you have high levels of prolactin and low progesterone, im no dr just a human biology student so I may be wrong. With progesterone after ovulation most doctors want to see a level over 10 on a natural cycle, and a level over 15 on a medicated cycle. With regards to the prolactin Some women with PCOS also have hyperprolactinemia

Dani - I see dr's are stupid sometimes they think every woman must o on cd 14

I tend to have a slight cramp and have experienced nothing i also get tired when i o weird i know but that tends to be my way of knowing.

Morning girls, hi Sa hope you had a good week-end away. As my AF started Friday eve, I called the special number asap this morning (CD4) to get my HSG (dye) exam asap hoping they could fit me in Wed or Thurs (CD6 or CD7) but they only do it on CD 8, 9 or 10 which fall on Fri/Sat/Sun, just when I am going to Wales! So will have to be next month... bugger, my GP was asking if I did it yet and will think I am finding excuses as am a bit scared I must admit.

Question for those that did HSG dye test and are on Metformin, did you stop Metformin before the test, and how soon before? The Met instructions say not to take it before any dye exam... but hospital consultant said it was fine and GP was not sure.

Thanks and have a good day, can't believe it is sunny outside for once!

PS: Dani, could you update me as Waiting for O please? x

kentbird · 11-09-2009, 09:23 AM

Yeah you can O early, not sure how early but its possible. DOubt youd be peeing already but they say miracles happen xx

Maria77 · 11-09-2009, 02:24 PM

Hi Dani, I just watched the 3 videos, thank you very much (and sorry you got yours erased...)! I will show the first one to my mum and Pete, I think it is more specific and graphic. It's weird but there are a couple of PCOS symptoms that I always had and felt ashamed of and even went to doctors when I was younger and no-one ever even suggested it could be PCOS (which I did not know I had)... these are the dark neck at the back, for which I was given special creams, now it is generally better, and a couple of skin tags they wanted to burn but I chickened out (I used to wear my hair down all the time I was ashamed of these 2) and the h.... toes (can'even say it!) and hair loss at times. The good thing is that some have or are improving due to my awareness and taking vits, trying to regulate hormones, etc

Hi Sa, I too felt like I was peeing more after ovulating, not sure why though! It then went back to normal a few days before AF came back. It is a discovery of symptoms as I have for the first time started to understand what certain reactions, twinges and pains in my body are, which I could never pinpoint in the past as nothing was regular.

Thanks again x

Great video's! Feeling s**t today! Work is rubbish, opk negative but on the up side finally stopped bleeding after miscarriage - can start making love rather than having timed bding - well only until i get a positive haha. Good luck to us all this month i think there may be a few xmas babies on the way!!

kentbird · 11-09-2009, 07:32 PM

Glad the bleeding stopped Sam - it took me way over 2 weeks for the bleeding to ease after my miscarriage, then another week to completely stop!!! So its good its stopped xx Now have some fun honey, you deserve it xxx

Nirish · 11-09-2009, 09:03 PM

Hi everyone.

So. it's been a few days since my BFN and I'm determined to get pg, have BD EVERYDAY since - sometimes even twice!!!

Maria - belated Happy Birthday. BTW you didn't give me any false hopes, I was secretly praying my ass off for BFP! It's been April since my last period - I know I need to go to the doc and demand some drugs to kick start it all but I haven't done anything about it yet (got major assignments due to do but will get to it next week).

Sa - you've made me laugh so much tonight about your comment about pissing £20 away. That has made me chuckle so much! Cheers for checking out the hormone levels.

Dani - you had any joy with O yet or still waiting??

Sam - glad your bleed has stopped, must be horrible. I agree with Dani, go have some fun BDing.

Today I'm as broody as they come!! OH's sisters baby is just so damn cute (not even a week old), along with every other baby I've seen over the past few days and I'm so jealous. We were chatting about names and stuff tonight and it's bloody torture - why do we plan all these things, get so hopeful?!? I know it will happen for us all, I can't even begin to imagine it not happening but Jesus, give us a break and let it happen soon!!! I'm getting all the baby dust I can find and sprinkling it over us all so that we get the best Christmas pressies ever with BFPs!!!!

Off to bed now for some late night BD. OH will be praying I get a period soon so he can get a rest!!!!!

Catch you all tomorrow.
D xxxx

kentbird · 11-10-2009, 06:07 AM

Hey D x Think i might o today, as my temps dropped and had positive opks the past 2 days so fingers crossed, now if we can only catch the egg xx Make sure you get to the doctor and get some tablets to bring on AF, the sooner she gets here, the sooner you might get your O!!!!

hey ladies, how are we all today xx

mabongwen · 11-10-2009, 06:49 AM

Morning girlies

Maria - why can you only have the test done t certain days I had mine randomly :/

Sam - I found when I stopped bleeding i could move on and start again, the bleeding for me was just a constant reminder of what had happened, i was lucky it took just over a week, so im glad it has stopped for you

D - glad i made you laugh with bad news possibly lurking round the corner I find its good to laugh, i am annoyed I have wasted £20 though haha damn clearblue!!

Dani - yay possible O!! chuffed for you and best of luck hope you catch and stick hun

Today I feel strange :/ ha dunno how to describe this but ill give it a go. Me and dan are not a clingy couple atall but today i just have the want and need to be with him all day I got so upset when I had to leave him this morning for work

very strange its like an overwhelming feeling of the need of closness but just from dan, however I had a angry outburst at a helpless pedestrain this morning, get this I was waiting at the lights to cross had pushed the wait button and next thing theis guy just stands beside me looks at me then starts pushing the button like 4 times so I turned to him and said "do you think I am standing here for my health that I wouldnt push the button?!? its a crossing you push the f*****g button!! I pushed the f*****d button!!" ooooops lol

ohh and im peeing like a race horse now haha!! i think it may have been the copious amounts of alcohol over the weekend and my kidneys going a bit into overload to clear out the poison so that is my self diagnosis lol who needs a dr eye??

Sa xXx
