100% I think you're doing the right thing. If you feel like O may be coming in short order the Provera can just mess up everything and for no benefit (since you'd have done the same thing naturally just thru waiting)
I think it's perfectly fine for you to try this month, provided YOU feel comfy with it. If you'll live 1000 lifetimes of regret if you try and get an opposite then of course wait, but keep in mind that it is absolutely possible that you'd try and get a girl this month, or wait and even with Femara next month, conceive a boy.
Based on studies done in people who were NOT swaying we see about 3-5% pink sway benefit with Femara. Our statistics are not terribly reliable but we have average 75% with the medications and 70-72% percent without them so we do see some benefit, but keep in mind that a lot of people do still get boys with the medications. It's all about what you feel is best for your family and your sway.

Thanks that's really helpful. I thought about the possible level of regret if I didn't wait, but also that if it was 5% or less from meds I'd be ok with it if it came naturally this cycle - incl the intercourse. Everyone is suffering under the current level of inflation so $425 does sting but if I just take the meds with no monitoring will they ban me lol.
Small increase of temp today which I often see day of O so maybe this is it.

Fertility friend says I ovulated & we had an attempt O day, I think it was O-12 but hey, yay no Provera.
First attempt for 2wks so very happy with that being 1 attempt. Sick with flu now, maybe that's a good sign.

I'm CD17 & they canceled my cycle yesterday.
I did 5mg days 3-7, had an ultrasound CD12 with 3 follies 11 & 12mm. Another one CD15 with 3 10mm follies & 3 follies 11 & 12 almost 13mm. They want to go to 7.5mg after I get my next period (which will be in 5wks going by my last 2 cycles).
With dd I did 2.5mg days 3-7 then 5mg days 18-22 & ovd CD28. They don't want to go straight into more meds but won't give a reason. Just that it's been 2.5yrs since I did that.
I'm thinking I'll probably still ov this cycle, my dh can't understand why they won't do any more ultrasounds. My OPKs are negative atm but do you have any encouragement to offer that it's still early for this cycle to be a bust? I've got more meds here but I don't wanna suppress the biggest follicle I've got if it is still growing all be it slowly!
What is a good release pattern for dh to go for quality?

Goodness yes absolutely that is WAY too soon to declare a cycle a bust!!! What in the world are they thinking??
You will all but certainly still ovulate, keep doing OPK or do e4d method to be sure you're covered.
PLEASE do not take any more medication at this point. Let the follicles that are there develop and be ovulated, and take the medication in future months.
So happy for you Treens, congratulations Sent from my SM-A225F using Tapatalk
