Felurian, That's great! Any positivity now is worth celebrating. And it does sound like you should switch -- maybe more personal attention is just what you need.
Welcome to everyone new -- and congrats to our graduates. ;)
I'm 8 or 9 dpo and have been having the wildest dreams (starring the strangest characters from my past) and so far, NO SPOTTING. I'm very excited about this b/c that had become par for the course for me for the last several cycles. I would have early spotting, a day off, then a short period. My LP has never been longer than 10 days by my calculations so ... I might poas Monday morning, after my last progesterone dose. What do you ladies think?

Hi autumn,
No it didnt stop. Now its a full on bleed. I called my doctors office and my doctor is out til monday but I talked to a doctor and then a nurse called me the day after and both told me not to count this as AF. Just wait and see what my body does next. If I get my period as I expected on the 23rd of this month then it was either a cyst or my lining is too thick and just sheddin more. So we will see

lisserb - Yes, I am, days 12-24 (though I skipped my last one last night because why bother being blurry eyed if I'm not pregnant).
From what I understand it's the clomid that's supposed to help this by getting me to ovulate sooner; however, that hasn't happened yet. I've been on 50mg. I'm going to ask to be bumped to 100 for this 3rd cycle.
I mentioned to my doc the first time I visited that i noticed this short LP, but she didn't care.

No, my ob/gyn wanted to try clomid + progesterone for 3 cycles before referring me to a specialist. I've had zero monitoring. I also had the option of an IUI but decided not to. At this point it's obvious to me that wouldn't do anything anyway.
First they turned me away b/c I'd been trying for only 11 months. Then I saw a new doc at the same practice the following month. She's somewhat better. Had hsg, blood tests, ultrasound, husband was tested too. So they think nothing is wrong with me and I should just take clomid and get pregnant, I think.
2nd fertility yoga class tonight. I'll be interested to hear what she says.

Hello Ladies!
Hope everyone is having a great Sunday! (Father's Day)
TMI Alert: I woke up this morning around 3:00 am with a really bad stomach pain. I went to pee, then I went back to bed. Around 7:30 am, I woke up and I felt 'wet' in my underwear! So I went to the bathroom peed & wiped & low & behold - BLOOD!!! AF isn't due until the 21st! I do have to admit though that I stopped taking my Progesterone 2 days before I should because I could not deal with the side effects. Not only were my eye-sight blurred, I started seeing flecks of light as well, that scared me alot! I was also experiencing serious mood swings, but mostly I was feeling very depressed & even started having thoughts of suicide! Hubby even noticed something was not right. I had no idea Progesterone could do that to someone! I will call my doctor's office in the morning to ask them what I should do.
I am so confused as to what is going on with my body! Is this a miscarriage? Is AF just super early? Did I mess up by stopping the Progesterone? Did my fall have something to do with this? Sighs...
Thanks for listening ladies!

MrsK, a drop in progesterone levels are what signal the body to start menstruation. So, since you stopped your progesterone, you had a level drop. So I think it's early AF. Two days sounds about right, too. When I stop progesterone, AF usually comes about 48 hours later. And wow, what crazy side effects! Definitely ask your doctor is there is some other medication you can take.
