Out - and long cycle

This was our first month on a break from drs. and I was really in a good place mentally. It felt good not to go to the docs every week and I wasn't obsessing. But then of course, once AF was about to be due I was obsessed - I was talking to my belly, convinced this was it. Last night, CD33 - AF came. Usually she arrives day 28 or 29. This was my first cycle off clomid - do you think that effected it? I also just went on a trip, and I do know sometimes I'm affected by the plane ride.

I knew it was a long shot, but every time, its like you don't know how much more strength and hope you have in you when it doesn't happen.

Anyway, thanks for listening.

Re: Out - and long cycle

im sorry af showed but happy u had a pretty much stressfree month. The drs appointments definitely put so much strain on us emotionally.
as far as the long cycle i dont know why. It could be bc of the clomid. im not sure.
Good luck this new cycle!

Re: Out - and long cycle

sorry about AF. It could be both. I know that when you travel, your cycle can be thrown off. Good Luck on your next cycle!

Re: Out - and long cycle

I am sorry this is another neg cycle.. But for 3 1/2 years I had to muster up hope and fight the good fight every month as well.. What helped me was my Dr.. He had more hope than I can tell you.. He helped me through all of that.. And as long as you Dr has faith and will keep treating you and going fwd than you should be confident too.. I know my Dr truly cared about me and was not looking to take my money.. I knew it from the minute i met him.. He was getting me pregnant no matter what.. That was HIS attitude.. So how could I ever give up.. When Drs really feel its over they tell you so keep that in mind.. I pray you find your strength and get your miracle..

I'm so sorry

Re: Out - and long cycle

I'm sorry . It could have been from being off clomid but my feeling is that you may have o'd later because of teh travel - that has happened to me in the past.

Re: Out - and long cycle

I'm sorry this cycle didn't work out as you had hoped. Clomid always made my cycles longer (same as you 31-33 days, which is mean mean mean). Also when I travel my AF always comes early like CD26. I think it was the clomid. And on a totally different note injectible IUI's always made AF come on like CD24 (at least it saved me from wasting HPT's).

Try to keep having stress free days and try to remain hopeful that this can work. You'll find strength you didn't know you had.

Good luck on your next cycle, we are all rooting for you.

sorry about AF- sometimes when I fly it makes my cycles get a little longer too..

Re: Out - and long cycle

I'm sorry that you got AF. My cycle also gets a little off when I travel.
