Hi sammy and scaps nice to meet you both!

Scaps I would recommend the ones from home health on amazon, they're dirt cheap and have never failed to pick up on ov yet. I get them in batches of 50 and test twice daily to make sure I don't miss anything. Their pregnancy tests are also good, they work and are dirt cheap. I'm just addicted to Poas what can I say *hangs head in embarrassment*

I use the same ones. They're cheap and do the job

I would like to know this too. Soy hasn't really done anything for me and I will only have one more (long) cycle before clomid. I am really torn between AC and Maca Root.

OPKs don't work for me (and I have pee'd on lots and lots) so I think perhaps it is the LH that is causing the problem. Has anyone got postive OPKs after using either AC or Maca Root.

:rotfl:I dont have a line eye for pg tests as Ive only ever taken one - when I was pg. As I never test until I miss AF.

BUT I have a massive line eye for opks!!! My mind can create an appearing line on those so well!

Becca and Firefly: I take Agnus Castus and I have found it to be great. I have pcos and as soon as I came off the pill I started taking AC on CD1. I had appalling headaches for 2 and a half weeks, but they went. I took them as a sign that the AC was working in regulating my hormones.

Before being diagnosed I was pretty regular with 35 day cycles which abruptly stopped (hence the diagnosis). I was put on Yasmin and came off after 7 months. My cycles are back to 35 days, with O 14 days before AF, so I'm ecstatic that something seems to be working.

I can't say for sure whether it was the AC or the pill which kickstarted my cycles, but I'm sticking with AC for this cycle too, and also use opks and cm to monitor ovulation.

AC isn't for everyone, I've heard of it delaying some people's Os and prolonging cycles, but I really think it was this that worked for me.

One downside - I'm now a bit of a slave to my hormones all month!
HTH, Nic x

Hi, sorry only just managed to get on, been busy shopping for our new extension wnich hopefully will be finished by summer!

Tested this morning and was a BFN boooooo. Not overly disappointed as wasnt hopeful this month as we didnt manage to BD very often. AF should arrive in the next couple of days so when thats over with will get cracking on operation BD every other day without fail!

Fingers crossed for you Becca!

I'm not hopeful! Think it's my eye rather than anything else.

What is everyone doing for New Years Eve? X
