Hi DCBailey:

I do not have regular cycles off BC. Along with the ovarian cysts, I have mild hirsutism, thinning hair, pelvic pain (when cysts get bad), and recent weight gain around the middle. I was dx when it was at it's worse and at that point, I also had night sweats, unpredictable sweats, irritability, and mood swings. That has stayed away since the BC.

Good luck with the dancing Dana, let me know if you want a trans atlantic dance partner

Check out my huge temp spike this morn, the highest temp so far! How great would it be if it stayed up there? Lets say, for like 9 months? LOL - I am so silly :s

Hi Ladies....

What a week at work.... as you know, I was told no more HERBS for now so I stopped taking Vitex and Cinnamon last week. I feel fine but I feel so weird only taking Synthroid in the morning and Met at night. I was so use to taking like 10 pills that I feel like I am forgetting something... go figure.

How are you all doing? Plans for the long weekend?

Geia sou, Claire! How I wish I was in Hellas now.

Amy: Yes, bloating and weight gain seem to come with PCOS. I"m battling a 15 pound weight gain right now. Size 4 to Size 10... yikes!

Ive heard that Saw Palmetto is great for loweing testosterone levels and hirsutism. but all depends if you have high T levels. Did you get blood work done? you will probably have a better idea of what herbs you need once you get your levels checked.

Dana and Claire - thanks for the AF dance, my bb's are still very sore. Day 9 of NPC.

Letty - I haven't been taking my herbs since I started NPC... I just wanted NPC to do it's thing.

Tsarinaeleni - I guess we are all in the same boat.


Ok, so I am Day 9 of NPC with very sore bb's. I think my CM is changing too, because TMI but I am itchy, not irritated. Hmmm, hope that's a sign of hormone change.

Amy - I can't stress enough how bad I want you to get AF.

Dana - thanks for still wanting me around even though I am on a HERB BREAK.

AFM- temp dropped today so I think my body is getting ready for AF. My LP is 14 days so I should see AF next week.

Letty - I thought BBT only dropped on the day of or day before AF? Or at implantation, of course Could you have implanted today?

I am off to bed, only 7 hours til I get to temp and see if this mornings spike was a fluke or not
