Hi Kelster!

No sorry we only want to hear stories of washboard abs here lol!!

What's femaprin I haven't heard of that? I have irregular cycles too, and they are really long - I hate it!

Where are you in your cycle Kelster?

On a separate note: I Just found how to do all the other smileys!! I've been wondering for ages!!

:mu aha:

Ha ha I think I may have gone overboard?! It was really obvious too lol!

THANKS FOR THE WELCOME!!!!! been lurking for about 2 months but finally posted

REALLY LONG,, HA.. right now day 90,, yep day 90. this unfortunately is nothing "new" for me.... extremely frustrating but I am waiting for only 1 more week and it's off the GYN for meds to to start her...

Femaprin is another herb to help regulate the cycles.... I have been reading a lot on the internet for a natural ways to induce AF instead of BC because I don't want to take it..

but yeah DEF NO FLAT ABS while on Maca.. LOL LOL sorry

Yeh I lurked for a while before I posted - it's nice to speak to people who know what you're going through and don't mind a lot of TMI lol!

Wow your cycles are long. I thought mine were bad, 65, 59 & 44 days... but 90 is so long, you must be so frustrated.
Do you have any idea of the cause?

kelster823 · Feb 22nd, 2010, 17:35 PM

I truly think PCOS but no complete DX yet, I have A LOT of the symptons... my thyroid is fine though...OB wanted to put me on BC and I said NO WAY and he said ok we'll just go with the way it has been going...

this cycle is LONG which is not my "normal" cycle it's usually between 40 and 60 days... I dunno if it because of the MC I had back in Oct... I m/c on Oct 13th got AF Nov 22 and nothing since.... GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR but I am also getting up in age (40 this year)

we just never thought I could get preggos so we just lived our lives and have been happy...we never truly TRIED but now I really want to be a mommy

SBB · Feb 22nd, 2010, 18:05 PM

I think I have PCOS too which causes my long cycles... but also no proper diagnosis yet.

sorry to hear about your MC

I guess you at least know you can get pregnant... Hope it will happen again for you soon x x x

I think I'm going to join you ladies on the Maca!
I think I'm out again this month already

I live miles away from OH at the moment while my house sells and normally just see him at the weekends (which as you can imagine makes TTc a bit difficult) but this past week was half-term school hols here in the UK so we were together all weekend which was amazing. We BD every day! So I thought if any month it was going to happen it would be this one. I am anywhere between 3DPO and 8DPO (not totally sure when I ov-ed) but am already feeling snappy and all the usual AF symptoms

I have a short luteal phase and have been taking Vit B6 which last month made my luteal phase a record 15 days!! But I can feel the witch on her way so I feel down about it. I am 37 too which isnt helping I'm sure.
So now I will try Maca I think.
Which is the best one to get in the UK, ladies? And what strength per day are you all taking?
xxxxxx

I purchase the Navitas Naturals' Powder form it really isn't THAT BAD I swear, just make sure you really mix it well with something a lot of peeps use it in smoothies

it does have a gritty potato kinda of texture taste though

hi sky rocket! Welcome to the maca party! If you look back in the thread welshrose posted the website, can't remember but it's maybe creative something... I've ordered mine from there and just waiting...
Must be tough ttc when you're so far apart... Good news about getting your LP up though! I had opposite problem, 2 of my cycles I had 36day luteal phase! Last cycle was 14 so I'm hoping it's not going to be a problem again...
