    PH level after O

    I believe that I Oed yesterday, late afternoon. My Ph has consistently been in the mid 4's. We had an attempt very late last night and both PH levels were great. Now this morning my PH is in the mid 6's which I have never had since I started checking last month. I had a slight rise in temp this am but my cervix is still somewhat soft but considerably lower than last night. It is still open but I have never really noticed it being "closed". I did not take any cranberry last night and this morning only took the aspirin and folic acid. I also have not had any artificial sweeteners since the attempt and I usually consume tons of it. Do you think I need to do anything to try to lower this PH or is it normal/ok for it to be high after O and DTD? Thanks for any advice!!

    Yes I think it is normal that your pH is higher after DTD because sperm has a higher pH so when you meausure CM mixed with sperm I believe it is normal to be mid 6īs. Relax!

    Thanks! I wasn't surprised by the combined last night but I figured it would have normalized by this afternoon. I was concerned that maybe I had miscalculated my o because It seems I only get + opk on the day of o.

    Oh shoot, I can't believe I missed this! Never be shy about giving me a bump if I don't answer, because I will answer every Q and if I don't answer, that means I didn't see it.

    Anyway, I totally agree with Indira anyway, I do not think you needed to do anything to lower pH. pH in the 6's is actually still lower than is normal, so your sway was still working for you!!

    Awesome thanks!! Would you be so kind as to take a peek at my FF chart? I was thinking that I may have had an implantation dip yesterday and would love your opinion!

    I answered in 2WW but I think it could be an implantation dip - see what your temps do in the next few days - hopefully they stay nice and high! Having said that, I know many believe it is normal to have a temp dip in the middle of your LP regardless - I know I've had the dip and not been PG.

    Thanks Sassy! I read that too, that it wasn't a reliable indicator by any means. According to the study FF did day 7 & 8 were the most consistent with pregnancy so I am keeping my fingers crossed
