Never been so happy to see my period. Ha. Going in on Monday for an AMH test. Fingers crossed. :) Thanks, everyone for your advice and thoughts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2730287 Fri, 28 Apr 2017 12:41:10 +0000 Coral 2730287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: Any updates? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729808 Thu, 27 Apr 2017 10:50:13 +0000 Mrsbells 2729808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: oh ok. I would probably wait and then do a digital test first before going in for blood work. but for sure breastfeeding throws things off </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729799 Thu, 27 Apr 2017 10:43:49 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2729799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: No.. I just used regular FRER tests and some Target ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729797 Thu, 27 Apr 2017 10:36:55 +0000 Mrsbells 2729797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: is your home test a digital test? because I usually trust those results </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729702 Thu, 27 Apr 2017 08:16:30 +0000 winniebee 2729702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't yet. Given that you are nursing, really anything could be going on with your body. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729698 Thu, 27 Apr 2017 08:14:59 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2729698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skipra: I know.. I think it's possible that I did ovulate and my progesterone was tested too early. But, I don't know for sure. Thanks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729690 Thu, 27 Apr 2017 07:49:10 +0000 skipra 2729690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: my periods were regularly irregular so I understand how frustrating it can be when ttc! But if you haven't ovulated there is zero chance you're pregnant. I would do opk's to see if ovulation does eventually happen or until your period arrives in case it's just an anovulatory cycle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729651 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 22:42:11 +0000 tequiero21 2729651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd wait a little longer. I'm pretty regular - 29/30 days. But had a few occasional 34-36 day cycles. No reason I could think of. Hope u get answers either way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729649 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 22:23:11 +0000 theotherstark 2729649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: 🙄 Seriously. Ugh, I'm sorry. I hope you get some answers soon!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729646 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 22:17:39 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2729646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@theotherstark: yeah, I tried FRER and a Target brand test. It's just weird that I've ovulated every month since September except the month we actually tried! What a pain Mother Nature can be. 🙄 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729519 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 14:56:47 +0000 theotherstark 2729519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I would just assume the hormones delayed ovulation, or it's an annovulatory cycle. Have you tried different types of tests? Sadly, I would probably just keep waiting. Sorry, that is really frustrating :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729513 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 14:51:51 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2729513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Makes sense. Thanks, ladies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729511 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 14:48:25 +0000 LBee 2729511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I wouldn't. I might if I had confirmed ovulation, but based on a previous post your doctor said you had insufficient progesterone to indicate ovulation. You can't be late if you didn't ovulate. You need to probably stop thinking of yourself as late as much as just waiting for your MIA period (i.e you aren't x DPO if you didn't ovulate as that means days past ovulation). I think that taking a beta would just add insult to injury and be an unnecessary cost. </p> <p>Hopefully things do work out for you soon! I'm sorry for all the anxiety.</p> <p>ETA: @MrsKansas is a faster typer :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729509 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 14:47:32 +0000 mrskansas 2729509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you had a failed ovulation with low progesterone levels your period may take weeks to finally show up. If you were to get a beta, would your doctor prescribe Provera to induce a period? If not, I would save myself the time and money and just wait, as much as it sucks.<br /> So sorry for all the anxiety this cycle :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-go-in-for-a-blood-test#post-2729505 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 14:44:57 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2729505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm officially 6 days late. I have had regular periods since September (and I thought ovulation as well). 29-30 day cycles every month. I'm now on cycle day 36. Negative home tests. I'm breastfeeding my 27-month-old and have already gotten responses from some of you that that is most likely the culprit. If it was you, would you go in for a beta anyway? Just to make certain? I know I would be getting positives by now. But, I'm just crazy and angry right now. 😩 </p>
