At least I know what to look out for in the future. I would have shared my chart but dont actually know how to... wow didnt know about the thyroid issue, that's really interesting as it runs in my family. Thanks @mrs.someone </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-to-charting-how-low-is-bad-low#post-1187407 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 08:33:34 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1187407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw one study once that average temps below 97 or so (follicular phase) could indicate a thyroid issue. Also, if your shift isn't much of a change, it can mean a progesterone problem. Its all relative though, want to share your chart? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-to-charting-how-low-is-bad-low#post-1187400 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 08:32:04 +0000 PurplePumps 1187400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it's right at the TWW and it takes a .4 nose dive, AF is on the way, usually the next day. This month AF didnt show until 3 days later, giving me a sliver of hope, but no. I've been charting 8 cycles and a drop has always lead to AF. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-to-charting-how-low-is-bad-low#post-1187388 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 08:29:01 +0000 pui 1187388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm assuming you're near the end of the 2WW? For me when my temps drop low 2 days in a row near the end of the Wait, I get AF. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-to-charting-how-low-is-bad-low#post-1187141 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 06:59:34 +0000 littlek 1187141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm new too. When did your temp drop? If it is right before AF is due, that is usually not a good sign. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-to-charting-how-low-is-bad-low#post-1187064 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 03:36:22 +0000 Snowdrop 1187064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha thanks, I was kind of trying to convince myself that i'd been sleeping with my mouth open but my temps have been so regular, literally text book, was very disappointed with the dip today. Usually start spotting tomorrow it just seems more than a coincidence, a rise now would make for a very happy Friday </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-to-charting-how-low-is-bad-low#post-1187045 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 02:31:15 +0000 Sapphiresun 1187045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gah, i haven't charted in almost a year, but I'd still hold out hope that I was sleeping with my mouth open or something off one small dip. A couple in a row... a little more discouraging. Below cover - time to whip out the wine, chocolate and Midol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-to-charting-how-low-is-bad-low#post-1187042 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 02:26:36 +0000 Snowdrop 1187042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi, this is my first month charting and I got quite a temp drop this morning. I was wondering how much it has to drop before you more experienced charters get discouraged....? </p>
