    Is there a way to actually determine when exactly after +opk you ov? I usually get 2 days of +opk, so what do you think. should that affect when I plan to bd?

    Be careful with the l-arginine, I used it last cycle and it dried me up.
    I usually get 2-3days of EWCM but last month on the l-arg I only had 1-2hrs of EWCM
    Will the EPO and Guaifenisin help to prevent the drying effect of L-arginine or should I just drop it off my list?

Might consider cutting it out if it will have a strong effect on my cycle. I'm like you too, too lazy to lift weights. I've been so busy lately I havent even been getting any exercise in at all. O for me should be around dec 8-12 but dont know if the supplements would affect the O time. How does o-2 work? i thought of just bding once this cycle and if it doesnt work then go to plan b (dont know what it is now though)
    For me the L-Arg turned my very regular 34 day cycle into 42 days, so i did not have AF in the whole of October, and just pushed everything back for me, i was looking at O on the 10th of Dec, but now im looking at the 25th. O-2 means you abstain for 3 - 5days, then 2 days befor O you DTD and then again on the day of O. I have just learned about this timing method, still unsure what im going to do with the timing because i dont know exactly when O is, i only know when i get a positive OPK.

    If you are taking the L-arg to raise testoserone, i read that Vit D can raise it too.

    I would think if you get 2 days then you should aim for the 2nd day Do you notice your ewcm? If you do, then keep an eye on it, if it starts to go creamy or lessen then your prime boy time may have passed and you could be moving into the more hostile cm timing. remember you have to add 4 hrs for the swimmers to get to where they need to be

    I've not heard too much good stuff about the L'arg, but I would recommend the Vit D also

    L-arg didn't lengthen my cycle but it did dry me up, but I only started taking it last month and started it 12 days before O
