I need some wisdom from those who have taken EPO. Do you have to stop taking EPO once you ovulate? Or something along those lines?

I think you do need to stop it once you ovulate. I only tried it once.

I took it many different cycles. I noticed a difference with CM the first cycle and none after that. I actually had more CM this cycle (without EPO) than I did on previous cycle taking it... just my own experience though.

And yes, you take it as soon as you ovulate. I stopped taking it once I got a +OPK.

You should stop taking it after you ovulate because it can cause contractions in your uterus... i.e. bad for baby-makin'.
