thanks! and I just saw you already responded to the mucinex question! oops, reading backwards! :)
Here is what I've been taking for the last 6 weeks:
Supps:
Fish oil with vit D
Metanx- prescription vit with tons of Folic Acid, B6,b12
Wheatgrass tablets
Prenatal Neevo DHA (does not have added ca or mg)
Baby Aspirin (have to after mc)
Potassium supplement
Mucinex- for 5 days
Have taken Emergenc packets 4 times- has lots of vitamins
Extras:
Drinking a mountain of lemon water
COT& gelatin drink- last 3 days
Green tea- 2 or 3 xs a day
Eating- tons of dried fruit an nuts, bananas, red meat and veggies.
So.... I'm not sure why there isn't any cm? I did buy some preseed yesterday.
( and my mc was August 9th, we lost the baby at 16weeks and I had to have a d&e. so I have had 3 weird cycles since then, one with noticeable ewcm. It's very confusing!)
Adoptamom I think the ewcm could be because your body is still getting things back in sync after your loss, sometimes cycles are funny for awhile.
Another thing you could look at is if you're getting enough fat in your diet. It's good for swaying blue and adding in some extra butter and other good fats helped me boost my ewcm.
This little guy I'm pg with now was conceived on my 3rd cycle postpartum (had just gotten them back from breastfeeding) and I had some ewcm but not nearly as much as in my "totally back to normal" cycles so it's helpful but not vital.
Usually the Mucinex works pretty fast for the gals taking it, so you can keep trying that.
You can have an LH surge morning or afternoon :) Usually it will build up progressively over a few days. Did you show a dark line morning and then not afternoon? Are you using FMU in the morning? You don't want to with an OPK because it can concentrate the urine too much. Pee a couple of times then use the OPK after you've cleared out that FMU.

I am also working out with heavy weights 3 or 4 times a week and have gained considerable muscle in the last month. Also drinking Gelatin twice a day so along with diet, I think I'm doing everything I can on the Testosterone front.
I hope your cycle comes good for this fortnight. Best of luck!!!

My cycles were 27 days consistently but my AF was heavy and lasted 7 days.
I don't know if it was the HE diet, all the sups combined or what but I started the Maca at the same time and two weeks later I had a perfect 3 day AF (my cycle was only 26 days but LP was 14 days).
I think it may be worth trying.
when did you guys start the gelatin drink?? im still a few months off yet so idont know if its worth taking it yet i just wanna try something that could raise my testosterone .. could i take it in capsules i dont think i coul stomach anything thats not tasteful anymore!!
I didnt do the gelatin drink, i did weight training to raise T levels, i would say capsules are the way to go though.Quote:
