Not surprisingly, today is CD 1. I've been spotting/bleeding for over a week, so I wasn't really expecting to be pregnant. I had a 13 day post peak phase. I called PPVI for my cycle review, and I got my P+7 numbers. Progesterone was 35.2 ng/mL and estradiol was
34.8 ng/dL (348 pg/ml), so both numbers look very good. We'll see if even more progesterone will help me to stop spotting. The nurse is going to ask Dr. H if I should be concerned about the fact that I had a mature size follicle on CD 14, but didn't have my peak day until CD 20. They are supposed to call me back tomorrow, and I'll post after I hear from them.
This will be my third full cycle after surgery and my surgery was almost three months ago. My CM this past cycle (with B6 and Muci.nex) was even more wonderful than usual. If the darn bleeding would stop, we'd be looking pretty good (other than the possible concern about the mature follicle 5 days before having my peak day). I know that I'm not very far out from surgery, but I'm still frustrated by my bodies lack of cooperation.
I had three mature follicles 5 days before Peak showed up this past month (and got pregnant). We did an u/s every day and know that they ruptured two days before Peak Day. If your situation is similar, then I'm sure it's fine!
ReplyDeleteExpected or not, cd1 is always a drag :(. Hope someone can figure out what's going on with that follicle!
ReplyDeleteHopefully they'll have some answers for you. I share your post-surgical impatience! :-) Hopefully this is just the last piece of the puzzle toward a normal cycle, maybe the bleeding will stop and you'll be in business! :-)
ReplyDeleteSorry things are so frustrating! I hope it all gets straightened out soon!
ReplyDeleteStupid CD1. I'm sorry. But you're right that your levels are great and the fact that you have follicles is fantastic! I think it's just a matter of time.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Second Chances... it seems like just a matter of time!
ReplyDeleteStupid CD1.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what PPVI has to say!
Praying for you! I hope they give you some insight.
ReplyDeletePraying for you, I know your miracle is coming!!
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed your call tonight, I will try to catch up soon!
Your numbers are so good! I wish I could help you figure out what is up with that crazy bleeding, praying that Dr. H can figure it our soon!!
THose look like great numbers! I'll keep you in my prayers that your body keeps healing and your cycle goes back to "normal". Like the others said...it could just be a matter of time!
ReplyDeleteSorry you had to call for a cycle review. Those were never fun....so defeating. Praying for you.
ReplyDeleteSo, out of curiosity: you're not counting the week of spotting as part of the new cycle? (I ask because I've got to figure out how to count CD1 for my CD3 bloodwork, and I've been spotting for days myself.) I KNOW this doesn't help, but I'm eight months post-surgery and only starting to have slightly normal cycles now (and had my first basically normal CM phase!), so I think you are ahead of the curve. I'm glad they're on top of medicating you - I think that's important too. (My cycles might look better now if I had tried more things in that regard, post-surgery.)
