AFM, this is my first un-medicated cycle after Fertomid and I am on CD21. Well I have had no ovulation symptoms whatsoever and my temp has not really risen like it did when ovulation was confirmed.

Going for the Progesterone test on Friday but have no hopes that I did ovulated as I am 120% sure that I didn't.

Next month FS whoop whoop can't wait for real answers :)

@Anzel: Welcome back! :) I also took a break so have been back for a week now following the group :) I hope you get your BFP naturally. Well done on the healthy lifestyle!

@ninies: I have also started taking the Be Tabs 5mg folic acid after my bestie told me that her gynae recommended that. Have been taking that for the past 3 weeks now. Oh my hat! That totally explains why I couldn't find Conceive Plus when I went to 2 Clicks stores and Dischem!!! I was looking at the lubricants and condoms section. Where is it generally stoked in the store? I don't even know where those other products that you mentioned are.

@Chanti: Up the folic acid and conceive plus!!! Yay for us :)

@ Anzel, welcome back! I think alot about you :heart:
Congrats on the weight loss, WOW what an achievement, you must be so chuffed! Sorry to hear about your PCOS and hubby but now you have answers and know the way forward. I believe that you will be getting your BFP soon. :heart:

I am seeing a FS in two weeks time and has sent myself and hubby for more fertility tests, SA and even Rubella, HIV. Hubby has good count and movement but the Gynae said he didn't like his Morphology results. The Urologist gave him the all clear but also put him on Sperm-I-Prove. So the FS wants hubby to have another SA in his lab, probably to check his morphology again and wants all the tests before my consultation. We going for the tests next week.

How did they find out that you have PCOS? Did you have symptoms? I am worried that I have something like that and it is going un diagnosed. When I see the FS he will give us the result of all the tests and give feedback. We are going to give the FS a few months to work his magic :P and still no BFP then we will be doing the IUI in Jan if he thinks that's the only way forward. But like you I would also like to conceive naturally.

@ Inca, the Progesterone test is always a good idea as then you will know if you ovulated and if it was a good one, just remember CD21 to CD23. Good luck.

@ Chanti, glad that AF is back to normal, you must be so relieved. My sister has two kids a toddler and a 8 month old and her doctor from the begining said to use Preg Omega Plus as it is very good and to continue while breast feeding. He just added that a extra folic acid supplement must be used. We both use the vitamins and just added the Clicks folic acid B-tabs :)

@ Ninies & Nikita, I think that both of you ladies spoke about Banting the other day? My husband and I are going to start on Monday and very excited. Do you know how much animal protein and carbs (?) in grams one can eat per day? I am worried that we overdue it? :silly:

@ Liza, how are you?
