Ever since I stopped bfing in March this year, we have been trying for a #2. Went to see gynae to be clear of any existing problem but turn out that I'm still having PCOS cysts in ovaries.
I held a neutral ground on whether I could conceive again. As all gynae would do for couples urgently want a child, she urged me to take clomid and metformin.
I was very hesitant on clomid becoz I felt it was totally un-holistic! I took metformin which was to regulate insulin level for pcos plagued women. The super turn off side effect was Diarrhoea! It's not just the feeling which was uncomfortable but the stains that were created in my toilet bowl after an episode! I hate it! I took half a cycle and stopped.
I became a fervent bbt charter. This became possible when rye has starting to sleep through more frequently. I charted with FertilityFriend which can detect my ovulation. FF is extremely useful! This one cycle I saw a cfm ovulation and requested my gynae to test my progesterone level to confirm ovulation as well as to check there is any luteal phase defect. The results were good. I was happy I ovulated as it was a pretty late ovulation! To me, at this point, as long as I could ovulate properly it's a bonus to any pcos women!
I saw a dip in my bbt of the luteal phase before the blood works came back. Was telling J that I def got a defect! That was how negative I have always been! Of coz my hopes bounced back when I hear the results. Dpo 9, I backside itch, tested negative. Was not disappointed though. However, I keep having a gastric flu feeling which keeps me queasy. Deep dw inside I knew I was thinking too much. However, I still tested with a cheap test strip.
And I had this slight positive line on dpo13!!! Told Hub and he was extremely happy. I tried to keep calm first as it's a cheap test strip after all. We went out and bought the famous clearblue with conception indicator!
Can't be wrong this time! =]
