Trying to Get Pregnant

At what point does a chart become triphasic?

Good morning all!

My chart is showing a stairstep pattern this cycle, and today is 13 dpo based on the chart. Yesterday I had a temp jump, and it stayed up. BFN's so far. Just looking for others thoughts or things I may have missed.

Thank you and happy friday!

Re: At what point does a chart become triphasic?

  • A chart can be triphasic and result in AF...just so you don't get your hopes up. 

    What is a triphasic chart pattern? Does it mean I am pregnant if I have a triphasic chart pattern? Do I have to have a triphasic chart to be pregnant?

    A triphasic chart shows three levels of temperatures: pre-ovulation, post-ovulation, and then a second rise around 7-10 days after ovulation. Some women with charts that show this pattern turn out to be pregnant. But many do not. Likewise, your chart does not need to show this kind of pattern for you to be pregnant. Whether or not you are pregnant, progesterone, the hormone responsible for raising your temperature after ovulation, generally peaks in the middle of your luteal phase and this can cause this kind of pattern whether or not you are pregnant.

    A triphasic chart can be promising, however, because progesterone levels generally increase after implantation (7-10 days past ovulation) in conception cycles, and sometimes this results in a triphasic pattern. If your chart shows a second significant thermal shift that begins 7-10 days past ovulation, Fertility Friend will indicate a triphasic pattern in the Pregnancy Monitor. A triphasic chart, however, is not a definite sign that you are or are not pregnant. It is just increasing your probability if you also have well-timed intercourse. Likewise, you can be pregnant and not have a triphasic pattern. Like all signs of possible implantation or pregnancy, you can really only speculate about it once a pregnancy has already been confirmed.

  • I had a triphasic chart for the first time last cycle and was super excited.  It is so vague though - you could be pregnant with a triphasic chart, you could be pregnant without a triphasic chart, and you can have a triphasic chart and not be pregnant.  Try not to read too much into it, but good luck!  Hopefully your BFP is coming!
