Oh man, you sure sound lost :(
It's true yes, you need to have a period for 3 months so that you can conceive, I would suggest that when you do get your period with the provera that you take the Fertomid to Ovulate
Just make sure with your Gyne though

Me: 29
DF: 30

TTC Since:JAN 2010
Me: PCOS (Metformin: 500mg Daily)

3 Rounds Fertomid:
APRIL 2013: BFN
MAY 2013: BFN
JUNE 2013: BFN


December 2014: BFP!! On Our Own!!! :)

M/C: 7 Weeks 1Day

June 2015 Taking a little break

Feb 2016 trying again

Hi there!
Here is a short for all the TTC lingo:
AF= Aunt Flow (Period)
HPT = Home Pregnancy Test
DF = Darling Fiance
DH = Darling Husband
BO = Big Ovulation
BD = Baby Dance
OPK = This one you know (Ovulation Prediction Kit)
DS and DD = Darling Son and Darling Daughter
BB = Boobs
O = Ovulation
BFP = Big Fat Positive (Positive Pregnancy Test)
BFN = Big Fat Negative (Negative Test)

I think that's most of it ;)
Hope it helps a bit :)

@HoopVirDieBeste Thanks for the advice, I downloaded Ocuview, but I see you have to put how long your cycles are, and I honestly dont know. I usually have to drink Provera everytime to bring on a cycle. SO never really kept track of the timeline. It sounds ridiculous I know :( Will register with Fertility Friend aswell :)

@Praying4miracle1 I dont really know what AF stands for? :blush:
The FS said he is putting me on Provera and gave me a repeat script for three months. He said I only need to menstruate every three months to be able to conceive? But I have a script for Fertomid aswell from a previous gynea I went to go see before going to the FS. So im actually very lost. And only have a follow up with FS in OCTOBER!!

@ninies I hope u get your BFP!! Will be praying and holding thumbs for you :heart:

@MomToChloe I honestly dont know how long my cycles are.
I know I got my period without using Provera every time after a IUI cycle. But then after that I needed Provera again before getting another period.

@MTC - Yip its quiet a bit of testing, which I am glad she's doing. Now its just the long wait until next AF. I think we all wish AF away but now I wish it was here already. :silly:

@P4M1 - Yes, you wait forever and then when you finally see them its like 20mins. She did a pap smear as well, so thats done for the year. Mmm I'm not sure that the bill is, luckily the medical aid covers all of it but I will check once I receive the claim for my medical aid. Well I guess I'm one step closer to the answer.

@Jay-Bee - Haha even had a nightmare last night!! :tmi: :ohmy: I dont think she look at the follicles, she didnt say anything about it.... :huh: She actually had to press down on my uterus/lower tummy to see my ovaries, so yeah i dont know. Hopefully the medical aid will cover all the bloodwork as well. Shit it's alot of money hey. I'm sure you cant wait to start Fertomid. I think we both cant wait for AF to show hey! I'm going for my bloodwork around 16 April.
What a cow hey! Isnt it always like that? Those kind of people just p*ss me off, really. Us ladies tried forever and a day to conceive and then those people just fall pregnant in a blink of an eye. Hun we are going to get our BFP soon, you just wait and see! :heart:

Me - 27
DH - 28 (Taking Staminogro and Comega Vite)

Jay-Bee, I can totally relate how you feel and not wanting to be happy for them... Im so sorry :dry:

Praying4miracle1, he mentioned nothing about cysts in the ovaries either, so im thinking he's not sure what hes talking about even if he had a suspicion he didn't do blood work to make damn sure I have PCOS... Now im confused :huh: Ok, I have never had a AF that went MIA... So im doubting this whole PCOS thing...

Maybe it's just never my time and I know our time will come... :silly:

@Jay-Bee01
Heck yes! I so ready for this new cycle I'm taking the TTC Bull by the horns, or should I say Horn? :laugh: :P :silly:
I feel you sister, vent all you want. It's always like that the people who don't really want kids get them, it's so unfair :swear: :dry:
But we cant stop believing that our time will come ;)
Stay positive girl I know our time is just around the corner :heart:

@MTC
It's not always necessary to draw bloods for test on PCOS, when there is small cysts on the ovaries and AF goes missing for a while that's the first sign :dry:
I honestly hate PCOS! :headbang: :swear: :cry:
It's terrible! I pick a weight even if I eat healthy and exercise, my body hair is darker especially on my upper lip (mustache) :huh:
Its harder to conceive, then when you do conceive it's even harder to stay preggo, AF goes haywire sometimes, and sometimes she is totally MIA
These are but a few symptoms of PCOS I do have :blink:

Just want to vent a bit :angry: :swear:

A few years ago I met my husbands childhood friend for the first time at a wedding as he lives overseas. He introduced us to his girlfriend of a few years as nobody has met her yet. A whole group of us were standing together after the ceremony and she asked me loudly in front of everyone how far I was! I kid you not, I nearly burst into tears and my husband set her straight (in a nice way)

Anyway in December 2014 they got married in our wedding venue (we got married there the year before :swear: and they decided to move back to SA

They are party animals and haven't been ttc at all AND drum roll please..... she is now three months pregnant and is "bragging" to everyone over FB.

I know I should be the better person, but I am not happy for them :unsure: :dry:

Okay I feel a better now :heart:
