    Whattodonow, I wear contacts and in January last year was - 7 and - 6.5. But in January this year, after 3 round of clomid, that jumped to -8 and -7.5. Over the past 7 years my eyes haven't changed, and even with updated prescriptions my eyes still go fuzzy at the moment. Weird, isn't it? I'm hoping they'll drop back down when I finish it x

    Wow - I didn't know it was used for that. I've only heard of it as a breast cancer drug, although I suppose it is a hormone tablet.

    I can't give any advice, but best of luck.

    Speaking of ov, I found out the other day that I will no longer be able to use EWCM to work out if I'm ovulating, as without a cervix, it won't be produced. And I also can't check my cervical position obviously! So I suspect I will be back in the world of OPKS in the future. Luckily my cycle is pretty reliable.

    I asked the surgeon about it the other day and he said 'oh, you noticed! That's observant of you'. I almost laughed - I've been TTC for years, I know every little variation that goes on in my cycle!

    Omg BZ so pleased for you huge congrats. We need more details xx

    T2d it is used as an alternative to clomid but I don't think it's used as much. Sorry to hear about your op etc, good though that your cycle is pretty reg though. We have to look for the good things rather than the things that hold us back.
