Maca or Vit D causing long LH surge?
In 2015 I started swaying for a boy by doing the 7 sway factors from IG. My cycles were not not normal and would usually range from 30-45days with my have O some where between CD 19-30, but would always O the days after my first + opk, twice I Oed 2 days after a + opk.
I started taking Testosterone supps about 8 weeks before my first attempt and my first 2 cycles after that were normal, I Oed the day after my first + opk then the cycle I attempted I had a very long surge. A 5 day surge confirmed with temping. I believe it was caused by the testosterone bc a few other ladies from IG had the same thing happen with the surges. I ended up having another girl.
I had DD3 in August and had my first cycle in December and starting tracking again with opks, temps and CM. In January I started taking maca and vit D. The last few cycles I have Oed between CD 20-22 and the days after my 1st + opk.
This cycle I got my 1st + opk on cd 17 another + CD18 and it went negative at 7pm CD 18. I have been taking my temps between 515-530am and again when I wake up between 615-730am. But have only been recording my temps from my first wake up. My opks were negative at 1230pm CD19 and I took another opk at 8am on CD 20 that was dark but NOT + and one more around 12pm that was negative. IF I use my 515-530 temps ff shows that I Oed on CD 20.
I'm wondering if maca or vit d could have caused me to have a longer surge?? I read that vitamin D can increase Testosterone in men?? Does it do the same for women? Or could it be the maca? Also I usually get a little ewcm the first day of a + opk. This cycle I only got a scant amount....less then the tip of a pencil and mostly watery cm......
Any suggestions.
