Hi ladies, me and DH have been ttc#1 for 15 cycles now and I was getting concerned and begged for tests. GP said I was prob fine as have mostly 28/29 day cycles (occasionally 27 or 30, nothing more, nothing less). I also assume I've ovulated every month as I get a stitch in my side days 13/14ish. Reluctantly GP allowed me a cd21 test to confirm ovulation. She said if results were over 30 I was fine and no need to come back blah blah. I just got the result back and it was 20! I've been doing some reading and apparently between 3 and 30 means you've ovulated but there is not enough progesterone for an embryo to implant! It needs to be 30+. I still need to have the other day 2 bloods after af starts next week before I see GP again. I assume they'd check more than one cycle? Can it vary or if you have it you have it?!
Has anyone had a similar story?
The only symptom I can think of is that I get spotting 4-5 days before af,otherwise my luteal phase would be a normal length from ov-af. Hubby is also being tested but there is a 3wk wait for SA tests! By the way I'm pushing 34 and he is pushing 36.
