So sorry Amy

I'm having a brain freeze- what's the name of the drug uses to trigger? I know there is 2 common ones, I used the pre-mixed kind.

Amy, I am so sorry, sending you big hugs

Hi Ladies, Happy Monday to you all!

Caty - Vitex is a herb that is very popular in European countries in particular as it helps with female hormonal imbalances and is therefore a good fertility aid. It's all natural which is good. Google it I know of two people who srtated taking it and within a couple of months were pregnant...was that just a coincidence who knows but i guess anything that's natural and can't harm your system is worth a try. You shouldn't however use it whilst on fertility drugs so I will take it for the 2 months before we do our FET cycle
Oh yes and GL with your appt with the new FS today

TT40 - Wow what a horrible decision to have to make, as Juniper says you don;t want to in anyway shape or form harm spock so I don't think I would be willing to take it whilst bf, however that is my own personal view too. GL with this

Miss B - Sorry to hear due to alot of stress you have had to postpone your cycle, how great that you have such a lovely distraction in March though that's just awesome

I know how it feels though having just had to do this myself, it sucks but I feel better about it now and more accepting of the decision we had to make

Amy - I saw that incident on the news, wow that must have been awful to have had to witness

dont think it will affect implantation though either, doubt it anyway. Don't beat yourself up about the BFN it's very likely it's just too early, all the best and baby dust to you

Everyone else GL and babydust to you all, have a lovely day xx

I'm having a brain freeze- what's the name of the drug uses to trigger? I know there is 2 common ones, I used the pre-mixed kind.

If you're talking about hcg, the two most common ones in Australia are Pregnyl (not pre-mixed) and Ovidrel (pre-mixed and ready to use).

Synarel and Lucrin are also sometimes used as an alternate trigger when there's a high risk of OHSS (but only if they haven't been used for suppression earlier in the cycle).

**JoeSpratt** · February 10th, 2014, 04:33 PM

Amy so sorry AF raised her silly head

big hugs xx

EPU was today. Managed to get 6 eggs which is still not alot but better than last time (3). All were mature though so that was a bonus. Wait to see what the fert rate is tomorrow. FX all 6 make it

**worrywart** · February 10th, 2014, 05:16 PM

So sorry Amy.

Thanks CatyO, I might try DH on maca. I take RJ too.

Also thanks for that info on vitex, Pos. Might think about it too. I always have to think about estrogen and endo with supplements, because some of them can increase estrogen which is good for some ladies, but possibly not if you believe the estrogen-dominance story of endo.

lots of love all,
WW

**Emma09** · February 10th, 2014, 05:33 PM

Great news joe!
FX for awesome fert. rates :-)

Thanks for the info Juniper!!!
I'm eager to start testing :P

**PositivelyGTC** · February 10th, 2014, 08:06 PM

I don't know what's going on with my phone earlier today I couldn't see any of yesterday posts...

Amy so sorry here I am saying GL when you had posted AF arrived

So very sorry big hugs, love & light to you

Ill respond to the other Sunday posts tomorrow xx

**~TT40~** · February 11th, 2014, 06:24 AM

**juniper76** · February 11th, 2014, 02:21 PM

I'm still having lots of trouble seeing threads. I can't see any of the previous pages of this thread and this page will also go blank if it gets enough posts before a new thread is started...

**Sarah4kurt13** · February 11th, 2014, 03:56 PM

Omg they say hcg gone up but progesterone way too low for viable preg.
But why my hcg still going up after a week?
Explains why I still feel pg :-/ seriously this is doing my head in the drs can't explain to me why hcg still going up.
I'm not very sane at this point :-/.
They won't give me another scan till Tuesday!
Argh.

**CatyO** · February 11th, 2014, 04:52 PM

Ummmmm...wish I was waiting for transfer. But no.

Sooo sorry n2l, l meant to move Joe... How embarrassing

**worrywart** · February 11th, 2014, 05:09 PM

Joe, that is awesome! Keeping fingers crossed for you.

Emma, are you going to test? I am not saying you should. Wishing you all the very best of luck.

Sarah, that sounds so incredibly hard. Thinking of you.

TT40, for our FET cycle, gosh I can't remember but I think they would just transfer 36 hours after your natural LH surge? No, that can't be right can it? It must be 2 days after the 36 hour period. God, don't listen to me. I am confused. Let me know what happens. I am hopefully going to have a few FETs this year. Hopefully just one! hmmm mmmm ......

I tested today, 5dp5dt.... BFN.
Will keep testing till AF arrives, I suppose.
I'm not feeling very positive.
I actually feel the opposite of positive.
I feel depressed and anxious, knowing that this is more than likely my last shot.
Quite sure that my DD will be an only child, and that makes me sad
