TTC after 35

Where the heck is AF??!!!??

Well I'm on CD46 and going INSANE!  My cycle has been wonky since taking Clomid and I need for AF to show so I can move forward!  I'm not pregnant, several - hpts.  I know there's a drug that can be given to stimulate AF but can not for the life of me recall what it is.  If anyone knows the name please feel free to post it, thanks!  I tried drinking parsley tea, nothing, I'm gonna try drinking some cinnamon water like a poster suggested and see waht happens.  My goodness, I don't know how much longer I can just wait and hope for AF!  It's ridiculous, I endure the 2WW and nothing, now I'm forced to endure a wait for AF???  Life can be cruel at times!

Ok, rant over, thanks for listening!

Re: Where the heck is AF??!!!??

  • I think it's called Provera. My doctor had prescribed it for me when my cycle was basically non-existant for 3 months. If it persists, you really should see your doctor. My RE said when the lining doesn't shed (and not on BC), it can lead to other problems. Hope this isn't the case for you.

     Good luck!

    Did you have any side effects to Provera?  How long after taking it did Af arrive?  Thanks for the info!

  • Ugh!  I was at 41 days and going insane!  You poor thing :(  Hopefully you can start the Provera and get things flowing so to speak.  There's nothing worse than wanting to move forward with the next cycle and having AF play games with you.  I'm sorry...I hope things work out for you!

  • Fortunately for me, I didn't end up taking it. The day I saw my RE (the day she prescribed the Provera), she wanted to perform a biopsy of my endometrium. Apparently, the biopsy agitated the lining so much (it was pretty painful) that I had a massive period 24 hours later. I had the prescription and was ready to take it, but AF came instead. My RE was surprised by this, but it's what happened. So, I'm sorry, but I can''t tell you what the side effects are. Hope it all works out for you!
