Hope the tww flies by Mel - GL, I hope this is your cycle.

Well - progesterone not so good this month 15.7 - eeek!!! Ob has upped dosage to
100mg. Not too confident this month now I know that - even if I do get a BFP I will be worried that I'll have a m/c due to low progesterone levels.

Obviously temps aren't anything to go by because last months temps were dreadful and prog was 68 where as this months temps seem better (although slower getting there) and prog is only 15.7. Man - this journey is frustrating.

Babydust to everyone! ! !

AJC - Bugger with the progesterone level. I'll cross fingers anyway, you never know untill the fat lady sings.

I plan on waiting to test untill the 1st June. I don't want to put myself through what we had last month. I'm really busy at work so that should help.

xoxoxoox Mel

Welcome Dotti, hope your stay here is short.
Mel A- hope the TWW passes quickly and smoothly
AJC- condolences re. the progesterone, its sooo frustrating isn't it?

As for me, I am now on my third 'round of clomid and have first ever appt with FS next monday.....anxious ++++ re this. Have a head cold and feel generally lousy.

Hi ladies,

I hope you don't mind if I join you on this thread. I have PCOS and have only had about 3periods in my life (I am 29) so I am about to start on clomid in the hopes that it will make me ovulate - having read the things other people have written about it on this site I am not expecting it to be fun!!! In some ways I am relieved to be finally starting something (waiting hopefully for some sign that my reproductive system is functioning was becoming a bit depressing), but on the other hand I am a bit scared to find out whether any of this will work for me...

Before I take the clomid (50mg) I have to have Provera for 10 days to bring on a period. Can anyone give me any hints as to what this is like? I was also wondering how long after you stop taking it your period is supposed to start?

Best of luck to all of you

Welcome fingerscrossed!, I feel for you, I too was on the lack of period trail, I can relate to your frustration.

Provera; I didn't have to take it after my misscarrige, but i had the pescription for it just in case. my OB told me it should work within 0-10 days of the last tablet.

Don't be alarmed if the first dose of clomid doesn't work, I had to get to 100mg before my cycle got regular. Also the symtoms of clomid are so wide and varied, I'd say don't worry untill you get there. good luck and keep us posted.

DrGirl - Good luck with round three, How did the FS appointment go?

Me i'm at 6DPO so waiting waiting waiting. we got in a good amount of BDing so all we can do is await the results.....
