I have been using a saliva microscope for many months. I always O on day 12 or 13 and start gettin ferns on cd 7 ad they gradually increase until the day before O. This month, after being on diet, peppermint and vitex for just over 3 weeks, I am on cd 9 and have none. I still think I will o on time because of cervical signs. Does this mean my estrogen has decreased? It must, right? Since saliva ferns are directly related to estrogen?
Yes, that is what I would guess and that's really interesting, thanks for sharing this info with us!!
Any other saliva-checkers out there who experienced something similar???
So my opk turned positive,.my cm changed, although there was way leas than usual and my temps are rising so I did ovulate. Typically, on cds I-3, 4 About 25% of the microscope field has ferns. O-2, is about 50% ferns and O-1 is close to 100% ferns. This month, there were no ferns at all unill O-2 when there were a few tiny ferns. On O-1, there was about 10% and that was it!
WOW. Thank you so much for sharing this! Very interesting.
