My MIA AF comes!

Ughh 13dpo and still a no show after the last 3 cycle being a 10 day LP. I seen dr and he wanted to do clomid but decided to do the Challange as well. So as soon as af shows we can get things moving..it been a over 6 weeks long cycle with Oing cd26!..ughh lol

I wish our bodies would cooperate & do what they're supposed to be doing. Have you tested recently to see if you have a surprise BFP? Hopefully you'll either have that BFP or AF will show up soon so you can get this next cycle started. Good luck!!!

Just after I posted I started to brown spot..So maby maby its af!

I already bought my clomid LOL

[BeckyM]

I just hope you know one way or the other soon. The waiting drives us crazy.

BTW - what exactly does a Clomid Challenge involve? I've not heard of that term and this is my 3rd round of Clomid.

I was just going to ask the same thing.....

[going4it]

I was going to ask also. What is a Cloimid Challenge?

[Jessica C]

I'm curious of what the Challenge is too. Hopefully, you'll have some answers soon.....BFP or AF (preferrably BFP!) but if it's AF at least you'll be moving in a forward direction.

Well AF showed!!! Yeah cd1!

The Clomid challange is when you do 100 mg cd 5 to 9 and a blood test on cd 3 and cd 10
The measure your FSH,LH and Estradiol and the are checking your Ovarian reserve's (quality and quantity)

It is done for IVF treatmets to see one qualifies based on number's.

My dr is doing it to see if we need to go straight to more aggresive treatments if a lower overain reserve is diagnosed.. It is commenly done in ladies 38 or older ttcing.

I am praying for good results I dont want to be perimenapause ..yet

Yay for AF! (It's really wierd that a couple of us have been celebrating AF lately!) Good luck with the Clomid challenge. Please don't say the P word. I'm 38 too and would like to think I'm still too young ;-)

[Bakin8th]

Yes this is 2nd time this yr I have cheering for AF!

Now hoefully it will stay away lol

[BeckyM]

Yay for AF! And thanks for explaining what a clomid challenge was, as I'd not heard that term before. Good luck with this next cycle, and I hope this is all you need to get that BFP!
