Hi. I’m pineapple. I’ve lurked a lot.

Currently trying another TI cycle. Waiting for cd1

I’m so sorry for your losses. Were you able to have genetic testing done on any of them?
What are your PCOS symptoms?

The last one and they essentially said just a shit luck.

I don’t have regular cycles. Currently Cd125. They want me to try metformin again with a low carb diet.

Hello and welcome! I’m so sorry for your losses. It’s awful feeling like you’re on such an unlucky side of statistics. Have you done RPL testing?

I hope CD1 comes quickly so you can start a new cycle.

Wow CD 125! I have PCOS as well and my longest cycle was in the 60s iirc. Has anyone suggested Provera/progesterone to bring on a cycle?

The metformin + low carb diet was pretty key to get my ovulating every cycle. I was on 1000 mg metformin as maintenance, and up to 2000 during treatment cycles. My first RE liked the maintenance phase of the South Beach diet. My current RE likes a stricter paleo diet (and she is an expert in PCOS). It was hard but it worked!

I'm sorry you find yourself here. I hope your stay is short.

I'm sorry you have to be here and for your losses. Hope you don't have to stick around long!
