12dpo clomid bfn

I had my follow up with my obgyn, I do have tons of cysts but he insists they’re all normal. I however am not ovulating at all. My hormone levels are high enough to get a period but not high enough to release the egg. I don’t know if that makes sense. He also insists I don’t have PCOS but my insulin is always high after fasting all night and most of the morning. He is waiting on my husband’s semen analysis to proceed with clomid which should help me ovulate and probably help us conceive. We just have to travel a little outside of our hometown for the semen analysis and wait a week for results. We should be going sometime soon. This month I spotted but didn’t have a normal period, I tested this morning, BFN! I feel so drained but hopeful to be getting some answers.

I’m sorry, I just need to get it off my chest. I’m 33f, and have two older children (15&12) already with my ex husband. We divorced and I found love again with my very first love, after 17 years of not seeing each other. Fast forward to now, we are in our fourth cycle of trying, I know it’s not long in comparison to others, and this is after I thought I would never have children again ( through choice ), and i’m so emotionally drained! Month in and month out and still a BFN. And I’m devastated Everytime.
My cycle is like clock work, only this time, I’m 12DPO, and started spotting this morning with cramps. This evening I’ve full on come on three days early. I’m sure there’s so many of you out there who feel the same. I feel defeated.
😭😭

I had a dream early this morning that had gotten a blazing bfp. I woke up excited, naturally and took a few Pregmate pregnancy strips. Both BFN. Something in me prompted me to use my like FRER. Vvvvvfl. I snap some pictures and share with the hubby. He sees the line too. I felt sooo peaceful and hopeful of course. Then moments later it disappears! I’m 12dpo and so mentally drained from this. I just needed vent. Sorry.

TW: History of loss
Hi all!
A little history is that I’ve had 4 miscarriages, discovered some auto immune and blood clotting issues, and have since had 2 living babies on an immune/clotting protocol.
I’m sure this will get downvotes, but please have grace with me as I regret my decision and am feeling the stress of it. My cycle wasn’t really returning postpartum this time around, so I decided to take 4 days of expired clomid (from my first viable pregnancy in 2021, which was also unmonitored). On day 4 I panicked about the thought of twins and didn’t finish the dose. We still decided to try that month, and now, I’m pregnant. I’m so grateful, especially with my history of loss, but I have NEVER in my 6 other pregnancies had betas this high and I’m stresssssing that it’s twins or a molar pregnancy. I know some people hope for twins, but I’m already high risk for my clotting disorder and a history of cholestasis and I really don’t want to add a 3rd high risk factor. I also would have 4 under 3 and not to be dramatic I think that might kill me.
Has anyone had high hcg levels and just had 1 healthy babe?
My hcg has been: 12dpo - 123 14dpo - 424 16dpo - 1261
Thanks in advance. 😭🤍🫶🏼

Hi all! This is my first time posting and first time TTC, so please bear with me, I don’t know all the lingo yet😁
I am wondering if I should wait till 14DPO to test despite my period being late?
I had my Mirena removed in February, and based on my 4 cycles since, my cycle averages approx. 25 days. I typically seem to ovulate approx. CD 15/16 (according to my BBT & other symptoms).
This cycle, my BBT indicated I likely ovulated 2nd May (CD 15). Today is 11DPO and is also CD 26, which is the latest day AF usually comes, but still no sign.
Should I test today, or in the morning if still no sign of AF? Or is 11 / 12DPO too early to detect hCG even though my period is technically late?
I am so bad for testing too early — I tested at 8DPO this cycle and obviously got a BFN, and then convinced myself that I don’t “feel” pregnant anyway (just my usual PMS symptoms) so I managed to power through the weekend without testing because I was sure AF would be here today and that would settle it for me. But even though she’s not, I’m worried that 11DPO is still too early and I’m scared of getting my hopes up only to get another BFN :(
Should I wait until 14DPO, or is it possible to get a BFP at 11DPO?

Took a test with Smu and glanced over at what I thought was 5 minutes saw a faint line. My heart jumped as I thought I was out after BFN yesterday at 12DPO. Dipped another test in the sample to get second option and that test showed BFN after 5 minutes. Took Clear blue digital and got not pregnant. At 13DPO 1 think l'm officially out AF should start tomorrow. Tried to post with test for opinions, but the mod deleted it.

I took a test and got a BFN on day cycle 30 (12DPO). Around my usual first day. Now it’s day 37 and still no aunt flow. I’ve started cramping around day 27, then on day 30-34 but no aunt flow. Took a first response test again on day 35 BFN. Symptoms: a little nausea at night. Sometime in the morning after I eat. Camping here and there.
Do I contact my dr or wait it out another week.
TTC for 4 months now. Cycle always between 28-30 days.

Today is 12dpo. It seemed like everything was tracking well for us to get our BFP, even had a BBT 1 day dip that fell in line to maybe have been an implantation dip. Felt so hopeful, with so many symptoms that pointed to getting that BFP. Last 3 days have been BFN, which was expected with the early dates. Now I'm thinking AF is coming. When I used to get my period regularly, I never got cramps prior, and only mild ones on CD1, and for the past 2 days I've been getting them on and off more intense than "normal" (which has happened worse before, when I had prolonged bleeding last year that I had to take medroxypr to stop, but only during it, never got cramps prior). But yesterday I took BBT and it was still upwards (been at 98.0-98.1 and it was 97.9) but took it a second time later in the night (about the same amount of sleep as the first reading) and it dropped to 97.4. Took it again today, and it's 97.4 again. It hasn't been this low since 1dpo, and was close to average temp prior to ovulation. This is also my first time tracking BBT, as well as just about everything else. The only weird thing is my CM has increased in the last 3 days as well, creamy white with little sometimes little stretchy bits, and I've read that CM is supposed to be drier in the couple days before AF, and BBT is supposed drop 1-2 days prior.
Idk if I should try another round of letrozole at this current dosage, or if I should ask my Dr to up it. I didn't get 100% confirmed ovulation, just assuming based on symptoms, BBT, changes in CM and cervical position. Currently waiting for AF or BFP to confirm, but leaning towards AF. This is my 1st cycle at a 5mg dosage, didnt work at 2.5mg.
Gonna try to get some more sleep as it's 4a right now, and see if anything changes later. Both times I got the lower temp, I had weird dreams that have me not sure if I was awake for too long before temping, or if i had woken up and fell back asleep too close to temping to be accurate (temp outside has also dropped about 25⁰ for the last 2 days, so not sure if that could effect things as well, but I never noticed it during any other temping, but we turned on our AC earlier this week and didn't turn it off with the dropped temp)
Edit: so I went back to sleep for a little over 3 hours and took temp as soon as I woke up (Definitely wasn't awake for a bit first) and temp went way up to 98.3. I'm so confused. I guess I'm just gonna keep waiting and keep testing and call my gyno if nothing happened by 20dpo (which is my original plan)

I'm not really sure this post has a point, I just want to vent I guess.
Tested everyday (sometimes 2x tbh lol) from 6-12 dpo and all super negative, AF is due today and I have all the usual symptoms, pressure/cramps, low/hard cervix, not much CM. But of course she decides not to show, now here I am with a sliver of hope left after I had already accepted my BFNs this month at 12DPO. I'm too afraid to test and be disappointed, might wait till morning cause I know AF is around the bend, but hubs wants me to pick up a test tonight and I don't want to disappoint him either. Ugh what a roller coaster

This is driving me nuts, my AF has never been this late before. I've got no symptoms or signs of anything besides 11dpo-13dpo I felt some cramps and thought AF would arrive as normal...but it never did, just CM.
I used the clearblue OPKs and according to the positive OPKs I would have ovulated between 6th-8th of April (CD18-20). My cycles are typically 32 days long. I've been testing since 12dpo but BFN all around. Maybe I just ovulated later?? I have a badminton game tomorrow and AF needs to either wait till after or not come at all 😮‍💨

How does anyone at this stage cope anymore? I woke up today, exactly 2 weeks post 5th IUI to take a test. BFN.
I just insisted my husband stay home while I go thrifting and now I’m in a thrift store parking lot having a total meltdown. I’ve been the go-to infertile friend for the past 3.5 years with people expressing they’re relieved that they have me to talk to about the struggles of conceiving, since I know terms without them having to explain, and being able to talk them thru what to expect with their upcoming HSG, methods to track ovulation, side effects with Letrozole vs Clomid, TI vs IUI, etc etc. Then they get pregnant naturally and stop talking to me - not with any malice but because they “feel bad” that I’m still not pregnant.
Cycles and cycles of tracking ovulation, a blocked fallopian tube, 2 false positives/chemical pregnancies (idfk), 5 IUIs, an endometriosis misdiagnosis, surgery (ovarian cystectomy), and 3 and a fuckin half total years of the mental fuckin toll this takes on a person - I am so fuckin tired. So sick of the meds. So sick of paying this close attention to my body. So sick of awkward smiling when people ask why we aren’t trying yet or joking that maybe we’re not doing it right. So sick of people telling us that we’d be great parents, with that look. So sick of trying to be positive. So sick of doing my absolute fuckin best to act like I’m ok about all of this. So sick of not having anybody in my life actually understand. So sick of acting like TTC hasn’t consumed me. So sick of daydreaming about how hard I’d love my kid. So sick of disappointing the love of my life. So sick of wondering when this will happen for us. So sick of trying to act it will.

My partner and I have been TTC for 11 months now. I’m 12DPO, my cycles are usually 30 days and I ovulated on CD17. My temperature keeps rising but I took a test this morning and got a BFN. Any chance for a BFP still this cycle or probably not?

So I have read that on average people usually get a BFP around 12DPO but it seems like this is a study reflecting on those with average cycle lengths. Since my cycles are longer than average does that mean that my window for a possible BFP is later as well?
Just feeling very disheartened because I got a BFN today on my 12PO but searching for a glimpse of hope.
My average cycle is about 36-37 days but very irregular. Sometimes longer and sometimes shorter.

We’ve seen a big increase in posts worrying about being out at 7/8/9/10/11dpo because of getting a negative test. We see these posts multiple times a day and I can’t comment on all of them because it’s just too many.
You are NOT out because you had a BFN a week or more before your period is even due.
Implantation only rarely occurs before 8dpo, and it takes up to a couple of days after implantation to have enough HCG to return a positive test. The most common period of implantation is 8-11dpo. So most commonly, if pregnant, BFPs happen after 10dpo. On TTC forums yes you see a concentration of people getting early positives, in uncommon cases from 9dpo onwards. But you have to remember that members on TTC forums are not the majority of pregnant people. We are the minority who track and try and are hyper aware of our cycles and get sucked into testing too early. And some will see an early bfp, but that is not the case for most. Most women don’t test until their period is due, or after it is late.
If you are confused or worried about your early bfn, we urge you to educate yourself more on implantation, the production of HCG, the trap that is symptom spotting, and the best time to test for an accurate result. It is acknowledged that tests from 12dpo are pretty accurate but the most accurate is the day of your expected period or after.
If you want a reference, please see the chart here for a guide to percentages of BFPs per DPO.
Do not drive yourself crazy by testing insanely early. Remember, HCG will only register on a test (if pregnant) up to 2 days after implantation. We understand we are all apprehensive and impatient in the luteal phase, and we sympathise. But we urge you to check the chart linked above before counting yourself out! Save yourself some stress!
Cheers, Mods

I’ve never really had intense PMS symptoms but after taking provera and clomid I feel like I’m dying. Nausea, soreness, cramps, weird dreams all types of random things I’ve never really experienced on a unmedicated cycle. I’m 8dpo and have a BFN so far and trying to be realistic and thinking that maybe my progesterone is crazy higher than it would normally be because of provera or clomid? Has anyone experienced this? And god bless all of you who have experienced this your entire life, I’m literally struggling to function with my daily activities.
Update: It was not the provera, I ended up actually being pregnant and it turned out to be a CP. it sucked.
