Hello ladies! we are TTC #3, I have PCOS diagnosed after DS was born while TTC #2 (DD).... We met with RE, did all the testing and such and was very lucky after TTC for over a year to get our BFP two cycles after starting with RE.
This time around we don't want to go through all of that again. Cycle #1 lasted 63 days, no O. We are onto cycle #2 now and although a long cycle, appear to possibly O around CD 31 (not charting since I wake up at different times depending on the kids and it would be too innacurate) so I use a CBE fertility monitor. I am 9dpo and after a blood draw and u/s today, it appears BFN.
My OB, knowing our issues, has offered to let me try clomid for 1-2 cycles to see if it will help shorten my cycle and make me O a little more consistently and hopefully produce better eggs....... We are torn if we want to wait a while longer to see what happens or go for it.
