Question yet another NPC question

How many days did you take NPC to start AF and/or how many days after you stopped taking it did you get AF.

Shellfish,

The first time I used it, I took it for 7 days and then forgot to keep using it and AF started one day later.

Hope this helps.

same here, if i forget to take it on time, sometimes i will start to spot. but there are many different dosages and stregnths of the cream, so it is all unique, and individual. hope this helps, lisa

Thumbs up

My first cycle I took it for 10 days and AF showed up on the 10th day. I then stopped taking it for 14 days and started up again. I only needed to take it for 10 days the second cycle also and AF showed up. This last cycle I took it for the full 14 days and AF showed up about 3 days after stopping.

Hope this helps you.

Default please help me figure it out!

I'm just all screwed up I guess-help me figure out what could be going on--please. My last af was induced with Provera, well time came around for af again, had a bfn, and didn't want to take provera again sooooo I started the NPC. OK-so CD36 thru CD43 I took NPC. I stopped taking it because I figured out if I took it the full 14 days then af would show up the week of my annual exam with a new gyn that it took me 6 months to get an appointment with. So, now I'm CD53-stopped NPC 10 days ago. I've had very sore nippies and now sore bbs for 4-5 days. Wonder if I just didn't take it long enough for it to have any effect and now---well--wonder what the sore bbs are?!?! I never have ovulated, even on clomid, but I don't temp or do OPK's so I guess I'm kinda running blind here.

Well, I tried looking it up on the net to try to find the strength but no luck. It's Emerita Pro-gest body cream--recommended by Dr. Lee in that book of his. I did 1/4 teaspoon in AM then PM for 7 1/2 days. I didn't really expect it to make af come because I just used it for those 7 1/2 days. But it sounds like stopping it should've made af come. I've now had a crampy feeling and sore bbs for 6-7 days. I wonder if my body is just freaking cause i didn't take it long enough or maybe I ovulated (yeah right) or something. I guess maybe in the back of my mind i keep thinking these are pregnancy symptoms--but that would just be the wierdest biggest miracle in the world if that happened since I didn't even ovulate on clomid. Do you get funky symptoms when you're not using the NPC?
