    Hi everyone, I just called my OB/GYN for my day21 BT results. This time it was 170. Last time it was 203. The receptionist said she has never seen results this high. Is there something wrong with me? Is there such thing as TOO much progesterone in your body? I thought last cycles results were just a one of.

    sorry Tasha i can't help you, i know mine were 29 both times and the specialist said over 13 is considered that you have ovulated so im not sure what it means to have them so high......

    It's all good, I spoke to my gyno and he called a reproductive endocrinologist ( i think that's how you spell it) Theres nothing wrong with having really high results, she said that was actually good. Thank goodness, i was a little freaked out!

    7DPO today, nothing to report, a few cramps. Have to change all my tops twice a day cos I'm so sweaty this cycle, it's gross.

    minniemouse - I also get lower back pain. So bad I have to find the perfect position to sleep. I have noticed it more and more the more cycles I have had with clomid. It seems my back is a tell tale sign. It reacts to clomid, O and AF! Maybe when I have no pain I may have a BFP?!

    M2OSB sorry to hear it! It is always difficult, I hope the new job is in some way providing a distraction.

    minnie - LOL@fastforward, I often wish I could do that. It's the long boring part of the cycle!

    WillI - sorry to hear about the back pain. I noticed my headaches got worse with clomid. We are cycle buddies, let's hope belly buddies too!

    AFM, I decided to do a CD12 scan anyway, tomorrow. Will trigger again. Feeling strangely relaxed this month .

    Oooh another cycle buddy. Great Marushke!

    OMG the headaches are bad this time around (think jack-hammer drill). Generally not good, but I have felt a lot more action in the ovaries so hopefully the strong reaction is a good sign? Air con is on right now as hot flushes are still going....... tired, but hopeful x

    Good night all. Good luck Mollie x

    Will - The AC is on here too. Sorry to hear about your headache . How are you being monitored?

    I am kinda hoping for more than 1 mature follie tomorrow. Don't necessarily want twins, but increasing our chances of a bfp would be great.

    Is anyone taking clomid unmonitored? We are going overseas in Feb and won't be able to have any BTs, Scans etc, was hoping to just take the clomid and cross my fingers.

    Yep me. My fs just told me to take 6 cycles and see how I go. Is this not normal?

    I wouldnt say that its not normal.. My FS told me it depends on certain things.. Like I am been monitored because there are twins on either side of the family, and the FS would prefer me to have one healthy baby instead of multiples. And she also told me that they are monitoring to see if I am on the right doseage, the right days to take it, to see if any follies are there or weather or not my PCOS is preventing it...
    You could always ring and ask your FS if you are worried...

    I am not being monitored. I am ovulating every month though. I was thinking I may ask to be monitored though because the thought of twins scares the crap out of me! My FS has me on 3 more cycles at 50mg, then we will discuss it further.

    I think my FS is just monitoring me because it earns him $$$....

    no monitoring here either (except day 21 blood test), i wish i was more closely monitored so i didn't have to guess when ovulation is going to be !
