Alison~ My spotting isnt quite as bad today- still there though. I hate when everyone gives you the advice about dont try so hard. I dont know if upping the dose will cause more spotting. I dont think my RE thinks it is the meds causing the spotting. He said we will try the femara for 3 or so months (that I actually ovulate) and then move on from there. This is month 2- if it works. He hasnt really said reasons for it but I have irregular cycles. I read an article yesterday in the newspaper about eating ice cream helps with infertility. YAAH- that is good news..... oh and that low fat dairy may cause infertility. I didnt really believe it but I looked it up online and found a few websites about it. So i may start the ice cream treatment this weekend. LOL

That is the website if you want to read it.
When are you expecting AF? I hope she hurries up for you. You missed your O window, right? If you didnt I hope she doesnt come for you.......Have a great weekend!

hi,
My friend told me about that article. I guess it won't help me though cause i don't think my problem is ovulation. I was scared about until i got to that part because i just started a weight watchers ice cream bar addiction (they have these great chocolate/chocolate ones). From what you said you could handle the extra fat so go for it. I was looking up possible dietary modifications for endometriosis and came across an article that described the "prototype" for it as being caucasian, slim sometimes overly anxious female who has prolonged her fertility. Well darn it I am the poster child (is that you too?). Okay so you have about 3 more months on Femara at worst. I wish something would happen for you already this month. I hope you don't have to move on from there but i am really curious as the WHYS of your ovulation problems. At this point i feel personally invested he he. One of these days soon i am going to set up a yahoo account right now i only have state email address then if it is ok with you guys have you email me on that. I like sharing if anyone is still reading but i am scared about coming to this site at work (no computer at home) is it considered a chat room? Basically anything fun is not a llowed anymore. jeez this thing is long sorry have a good weekend too

Yeah Alison. We could email if you would feel better about it. My email is danner124@aol.com. I guess I would be the prototype for endo. Great. Just add that to my list. I am still spotting and no sign of O for me yet. I will let you know. I thought I might be getting close bc my line on OPk was darker ( but definitely not as dark as the control) on Fri and sat but today it was barely there. UGG. I may have to take provera this cycle. I think I will wait til cd30 and give my RE a call back... HOpe you had a good weekend.

About 3 days into the clomid through today (cd 16 and no O yet) I have had cramp-like pain. Most of the activity is on my left side and I'm wondering if it's just working over time. I know most and the biggest follicles are on the left side. Anyone else had a similar experience?

I am on day one of provera to start my cycle and then on day 5-9 I will be starting clomid for the very first time which will probably be in the begining of april since I take provera for 10 days then can start AF anywhere from day 2 to 10 after that. I am so excited at the prospect of possibly finally getting pregnant that I can't stop thinking about it and I am afraid of a huge let down. UGH! How do you get excited and not broken hearted. And Iam pretty scrared about the side effects.

I am on femara. It worked for me when I had the correct dosage. Unfortunately I had a m/c on May 30. I just got my AF so back to TTC and I will start on 5 mg of femara on SUnday.
SO congrats on your pregnancy. I know it is stressful when you have had all the previous m\c. I have had 2. What meds are you on now?
