Swaying blue with PCOS

[atomic sagebrush]

Some go away on their own and others don't. Yes, would probably inhibit ovulation. But remember your doc doesn't seem to think it's a cyst and s/he knows way better than I do about it because they are right there looking at them!!

Hi Atomic,

I went for scan today (20 hours after trigger shot) , follicles has not ruptured yet. I have to go again tomorrow to see whether ovulation has happened or not. Follicle size has increased from 29 to 32, and another one was 26, but doc is saying its a good egg. I am really confused should i waste my money on IUI or not.

I am not a doctor and nor can I see anything that they see (since they are there and I'm inside your computer! )

I can't tell you what to do. If the doc is saying the egg is good and it's not a cyst I'd take them at their word. They have tons of experience doing this and I have none. I'd ask them if they've ever seen a follicle this size produce a viable pregnancy because they have firsthand experience doing this.

The other option of course is to just BD naturally and try to catch the egg.

Hi Atomic,

Thankyou for replying.

Sorry i could not reply, i was feeling really down after so many failed cycles. My follicles did not rupture even after trigger shot, so they are probably cysts. My re has put me on progesterone supplements to get original periods and dissolve cyst.

Oh no I'm so sorry to hear that!! Please don't ever apologize for not getting back to me, it's my job to get back to you and not the other way around!

Hi atomic saw this thread and thought I’d hop on rather than make a new one as it’s in the same vein.
I have hypothyroidism and low cortisol levels which I take medication. Started taking the meds last year after my hormones went haywire during my last pregnancy. I’ve been having fairly regular 27/28 day cycles apart from last month when it was 29days. I started temp charting this month and have had several pos opks since day 10 but no sign of o. However yesterday’s opk was way darker and I had lots of wcm and after realising I may have undiagnosed pcos... thought I’d begin ttc.
I’ve been swaying blue (without even knowing -3 months) and holding off ttc for jan up until last night when I just decided to dtd after a very very pos opk. It was different than the others because it was darker and did 3 opks at different times and still dark especially last nights.
While I’m happy with the decision I took last night, have a few questions and worries. I realise you’re not a doctor as you mentioned ) but you’ve got experience...
Does pcos sway pink? Btw I plan to bd this morn and tonight God willing.
I’m worried I may have a short luteal phase and that coupled with the low progesterone that many women with pcos have...might jeopardise a potential bfp...that’s if I did/do even o.
I’ve seen (online) a couple of women say they take aspirin and b6 for lengthening luteal phase/progesterone (cant remember) ... have you come across this?
I’m happy and will live with the outcome (b/g) if I get a bfp but was slightly worried that this was my first unprotected bd in a long long while. I’ve read about the exposure to sperm hormone that you strongly believe sways blue and can’t help but feel a pit in my stomach.
I guess I just want to feel better about my decision/potential pcos situation.
Hope this all makes sense and sorry for the long winded questions.

Hi Atomic,

You are so kind and generous lady

Do you know how long to take progesterone supplement to kick start periods. I am taking 200 mg twice daily.

TIA
