Cycle thoughts?

Are you taking anything like aspirin or ibuprofen at or around ovulation???

I never seem to have any EWCM unless BDing and I O, so wondering if it's more related to that? Maybe if nothing happens by next week I'll make an appt to start some Provera and start fresh. I hope it's BCP related and that my body can figure it out, it just stinks that I can't even really get excited about TTC or get my hopes up as nothing seems to workout with these cycles.

Thanks for the reassurance, Atomic. I always think first instinct is to assume it will never happen for me, or I won't be able to have my own children. I do just need to get some tests run as I feel like if I had an answer about what's happening that would make it a lot easier. Just have to keep moving forward!

Edit: nope, no aspirin or ibuprofen around O. I rarely take either at any point in cycle.

If you aren't ovulating, you won't get EWCM. The two go hand in hand. So that isn't unusual given that you're not ovulating much. Many people never get good eWCM on BCP.

I would go ahead and run in when convenient for you because there's no need for these long cycles, you just need to get back into the swing of things. I know it's hard to believe in the here and now when you're in the midst of it but you are not alone, this has happened to SO many women!! Doctors do not do a good job of warning people before they go onto the BCP about what the side effects may be. :/

Yes! I wish I would have known all of this before going on Seasonale. I would have not made that switch, or gone to something non-hormonal. I'll make an appointment just to get Provera and then discuss then with doctor what she thinks will be best. I did have two +OPKs over the weekend, but not really holding out hope for temp to rise.

It is hard to think that many more women experience this. Just seems like everywhere I look there are these great BBT charts or clear ovulation, so that frustrates me as well. Just have to keep staying optimistic!

I'm Xing everything and keeping you in my prayers! I can't imagine how frustrating this must be! I just know that a sweet little boy will make his way to you and steal your heart forever, I just know it [emoji4]!

Thanks for all of your thoughts, XX! I finally had a pretty decent jump up this morning...hoping it's the real deal! Naturally, after I call the doctor for an appointment AND don't have BD timed very well I would ovulate! And have been eating a lot of pizza the past week...hoping still thought!
