@namtipab i’ve only been using ovulation test strips. my cycles are so long though so it sucks! but we may be going to trying IUI in the next couple months if still no luck since my fertility dr recommended it after he does some tests

@psalm92 i’m not sure what my body fat percentage is but i know my BMI is like 20-21 so it’s perfect and where it should be. but yeah you’re absolutely right and i’m trying my best to improve things with my running and diet. i saw a fertility specialist yesterday and he ordered a bunch of labs...

@roky23 we’re gonna check his just to be safe, but i doubt it’s him

@travellersolo i’m sorry you had to go through all that! i actually saw a fertility dr yesterday and he ordered a bunch of tests including a metabolic panel, CBC, progesterone, LH, and a ton of other hormones. he also wants to do some ultrasounds to see if my uterine lining is thick enough and...

@stephenmendes i haven’t been on the pill in over two years. that sounds similar to what happened with my mom when she got pregnant with her first. she’s always been a runner too, and had no luck getting pregnant, then she was out for about a month or so from an injury and bam! pregnant

@vatsg my periods are usually about 5 days long, first 2-3 days are pretty heavy, then it lightens up the last 2-3. i think this is pretty normal? i def may look into seeing a doctor if we continue with no luck though. yes omg it’s so painful to stop or lighten the running, i had to stop...

@spread_the_gospel_online yeah i actually saw a fertility dr yesterday and he’s ordering a bunch of tests to have done! and yes i’ve had that mentioned to me multiple times to look into pelvic floor PT which i’m def open to im just scared 😅 and those are all very good ideas thank you so much!

@amygal i think part of it may still have ties to the ED as much as i hate to admit it, which is a whole complicated thing in itself because i convinced myself for so long that i had to do 10-12 miles a day to “out do” my mom as some form of like one upping her because she was a main cause of...

@ramseysmom this is such great advice thank you so much❤️ i’m sorry you’ve struggled through it too. that is something i worry about is how i’m going to handle all the body changes and weight gain and potentially seeing that number. it’s terrifying. i’m finally at a place where when i see my...

@029b10 thank you so much for this!! it is so nice to know that i can do this. i’m so scared of being weighed when it happens because it’s very hard for me to separate my emotion from the number. i will definitely remember this thank you!

@horsepower thank you for this response ❤️ you are absolutely right and i have a therapist but not an RD, and that would probably help me immensely. i always wanted to be vegetarian most of my life, i just didn’t actually start until after a lot of recovery work with the ED. i think sometimes it...

@biblicalscholar i have not but this is a great idea!

@saren911 yeah i def need to probably lighten up esp due to my history of an ED. and it’s hard getting enough iron as a vegetarian but i may start iron supplements too bc i know that is very critical once you get pregnant

my husband and i (23M and 22F) are currently on cycle #4 of trying to conceive, and have been using the syringe method due to my vaginismus. i used to struggle pretty badly with anorexia, and i still have my moments but am a lot better now and a healthy weight. my periods have been regular and...
