TTC - Trying to Conceive 2017


Hi Grumpet and kittykaren,

I'm charting BBT too. My gynae says temp for a good ovulation should be above 36.7 after ovulation and it should stay high until your next period starts. My temp were pretty Low.

Anyone tried clomid? I'm on my first cycle of clomid and just wondering if I can take clomid with supplements like folic acid or Blackmores conceive well gold? Those of u who have taken clomid, did u take it with any other supplements? Thanks.
 
Anyone has any solution of how I can induce my menses apart from taking pills. Natural remedy I mean. I am waiting for my menses to come in order for me to proceed with my IVF soon. For like the 1st time I want my menses to come...

Hmm..how Long have you been charting your temp already? The Nurses from the clinic did remind me to put the thermometer under my tongue and keep my mouth fully closed to ensure the accuracy of temp. You can also check the battery of your thermometer by taking temp in the middle of the day - it should read 36.8 to 37. If not perhaps your thermometer is Low batt?

I also charted for a full 2 months before finding out my problem- which is I was not having very good ovulations as my temp couldn't stay up.

Clomid doesn't clashes with the above supplements. Supplements are just vitamins. But do note clomid may thin lining so do take things like red bean soup to cultivate thicker lining for implantation to occur.

What is considered "good ovulation ?"
I thot most gynea won't teach bbt cos they don't think it is accurate.
my temp today has dropped to 35.94. :( after AF came, CD3. and my thermometer is new.

read clomid can work better for some ppl w lower dose like half tablet, ive not taken it myself.

I'm also not too sure on what he meant by good ovulation. But he did mention that temperatures are supposed to be higher; preferably 36.7 or higher after ovulation and it should stay high around that range until your next cycle starts.
Yea this gynae's methods are kinda old school lol. Well, we'll just try first and see if his methods work.

I Guess it's normal for temperature to be lower on CD3? Still have about 2 weeks till ovulation.
 
It is already CD42 but my AF is still not here... test was negative as well. I wonder is anything wrong with me? I have never missed a cycle before... :(

Also wondered if it is due to my thyroid condition... but the nurses said unlikely.

Nurses told me to wait for another week and if AF still has not appear, might need to take medicine to induce AF... or to take a scan to see if it is a cyst... double worry!!

But I am not willing to take anymore medicine... recently I started taking thyroixine which seemed to mess up my body clock and is unwilling to take any more other medicine..

Anyone experiences CD40 and more but AF not appearing and is BFN?

i see...
consulted google and this book i'm reading "making babies"

What is this BBT chart about ?

Follicular phase
Before a woman ovulates, the basal body temperatures range from around 97.0 to 97.5 degrees Fahrenheit (36.11 to 36.39 Celcius). This is due to the presence of estrogen, which keeps temps down. Temperatures will vary from person to person, but should stay below your coverline.

Luteal phase
Once ovulation has occurred, the temps go up to a new, higher level, usually ranging from around 97.6 to 98.9 F ( 36.4 to 36.6 /or 37 C different sources ).The day after ovulation, the temp generally jumps up by at least 0.2 degrees F ( 0.11 degrees C ), and then continues to rise somewhat. This increase in temperature is caused by the progesterone released from the follicle after ovulation.

It will become apparent after a few days that it is in a new, higher range. The temps themselves will continue to rise and dip day by day, but will remain in the higher range. ( Above your coverline )

The actual temperatures are less important than noting a pattern showing two levels of temperatures. If there is no pregnancy, then your temperature will stay elevated for 10 - 16 days, until the corpus luteum regresses. At this time, progesterone levels drop dramatically and you get your period. Your temperature normally drops at this time as well, though it is not unusual to have erratic or high temperatures during your period.

If your Basal Body Temperature remains elevated for 18 days or more after ovulation, you should probably test for pregnancy.
