*update* Vitamin b6 delaying O

in TTC After a Loss

I just wanted to update you ladies. I guess there's no way of knowing 100%, but i stopped taking b6 for 2 days now and today i got an almost +OPK and lots of EWCM. It could be a coincidence but I think the two are related. Now I'm not sure if I should take it again after O or not...

    I'm sorry about the Vit B6.  For some people it just doesn't do what is should, I guess!  I am a proponent of Vit B6 and I ovulate from CD19-25, BUT I did that before I started taking Vit B6 too.

    I definitely think it works for some people! I read a few things that say it will only delay O for some people so maybe im just one of them. Whatever it is, I'm just happy that I am going to O soon!

    I think 2 days of not taking it is a little too soon to call B6 the problem. BTW, when did you START taking it?

    I started taking it cd1. My doctors office said it's a water soluble vitamin and once i stop taking it, it will be out of my system very quickly. That's why i am associating it with that. The only other thing i've done differently this cycle is the acupuncture which could be the reason also i guess. I normally ovulate very regularly on the same day so this was really unusual for me.

    I agree with Katharine. Your body may have already been gearing up to O.

    Welcome to a new normal.... You can't associate any of these cycles with your per-miscarriage cycles.  It can take a while for your body to adjust. Your previous cycle O was delayed as well. How much were you taking?  I just don't think it's the B6, and if you truly have a short LP, I think it's more important to lengthen that than worry about a slightly later O. JMO though

    I'm not really worried about a later O, i'm worried about no O at all. just spoke with my doctor again. He said in some women it works wonders, in others he has seen delayed or no ovulation and the absence of fertile cm. He suggested I hold off until after O to start taking it again...

    Now, this is really interesting to me, because I never have EWCM.  I just looked back on all my FF charts.  I didn't take b6 for the first three-four months of charting, (but I was also a newb charter back then), and I still didn't mark any EWCM.  Now I am wondering if b6 has dried up any EWCM I might naturally have. Your doctor recommended not taking it until O, but everything I have read says that you need it to build up for it to be beneficial. 

    I am so hesitant to change my routine and maybe only take it after O in case my LP is short... 

    Off to google I go.

    initially he recommended me taking it through my whole cycle but since it was throwing me off he wanted to see what would happen if i stopped taking it... he said i could start again when i o. Im just so confused and frustrated. Im not really sure what i should do.
