testosterone articles (how it affects your cycle)

With running and conceiving.... maybe the boy swayers here should stop running the day before or the day of DTD! So you don't run the egg out.

It may very well be that it's not the level of T per se that matters, it's the CHANGE in your own personal testosterone. Even if your testosterone is higher than 90% of everyone on the planet, if your T has gone down suddenly your body may take that as a cue that a girl pg is a better bet.

It's 2 of my sisters have it and do does my partner and I have the same cramping they do but lately it seems to be getting worse as each month goes by.
I will probably take Clomid again to increase my changes or getting pg, I really really really don't want to go through another period!!

That you are having reg. periods and reg. ovulation is a pretty good sign that you don't have PCOS.

Clomid messes you up, for sure.

I don't think they do a blood test for endo, I think they'll do an ultrasound so if you're concerned about that, they will need to check later in your cycle.

My partner saw her OBGYN a few months ago and she mentioned my cramping to her so she gave me a script for this suppository that will work on my whole abdomen and help with the pain, they do help but not enough.

Where do they dig these docs up!?! I'm sorry!

It is TOTALLY hereditary. There are entire ethnic groups of people who ahve more or less body hair than other ethnic groups tend to, and it has nothing to do with their testosterone. The only way you can tell is if YOUR personal level of hairiness changes. You can't tell based on other family members either, because that's not really how genes work. (as in, my mom and dad are both tall and I'm short, because I inherited a different set of genes than they did. Still genes, but just not my parent's genes.)
