Temps during cycle?

[atomic sagebrush]

Drop L-arg, it delays O

I agree with Anchor, I would not do green tea but use Preseed (wihtout BS) and robi/muci.

So I've also been stalking the results spreadsheet to try to make myself feel a little better about timing (I KNOW, deep down inside, that it's the least important factor). Anyway, I see that the most successful frequency is 3 times, followed by once, then 2 times is at 50%. Is this correct? I will have a better idea tomorrow, but it's looking like yesterday was indeed my O day (having gobs of creamy CM and cervix is low). I'm feeling fantastically bad about my trouble with + OPKs and not knowing what was going on...resulting in only one attempt. ughhh

Please take those numbers iwth a grain of salt, because I recommend 3-5 attempts that is just what most people do. 1 attempt is getting us 70% for pink right now and I really strongly recommend doing mroe than one attempt, but it is not a deal breaker in any way. 2 attempts is still going to be better for blue than one, even if that is not reflected in the stats at present.

Well, it looks like the other day wasn't O day after all my temp dropped again this morning, LOL. AND I just took an OPK that's positive...ugh!!! That's four postive OPKs with no sign of O. I dropped L-arg a couple days ago. Just started taking Royal Jelly. I'm going to need that superpower atomic blue dust and maybe some O dust for good measure.

NO NO royal jelly ALSO delays O! Drop both.

Have you considered inositol? That really straightened out my cycles...

[belleboi]

Oh no! Lol at least I took just one day or royal jelly. No more!

And anchor, I've never heard of inositol. Very intriguing! Do you think it's something I could start taking now?

My chart is still wonky. I know it's only been two months since I stopped taking the pill, but not knowing when I'm ovulating and getting all of these multiple OPKs is really starting to mess with my head:/

How do you feel about long cycles and late ovulation? Does it sway at all (I would think girly...)? I'm on CD30 now, no signs of O yet.

THe reason why you are not ovulating and getting that many pos OPK is almost 100% certainly the l-arg right after coming off the BCP. You are going to have to give it time. Above all else DO NOT start taking this, that and the other thing in an effort to "fix" this. Your body knows how to fix it but you have to allow that to happen and not throw a ton of herbs at it.

I would not have you start inositol because I do not think the reason for your long cycle has anything to DO with what inositol fixes. It does for some people, but I do not think that is what is going on here and inositol may sway pink.

It depends on the reason WHY the cycle was long. If it's from the l-arginine, it may even sway blue.
