I'm 27. I was on BC for a few years. Always different ones. Seemed my system didn't like them. They helped my IBS but there were so many other extreme side effects that lasted well beyond the 3 months they should have that docs switched them or I went and tried something new. The last BC I tried was a pretty good one. I went off of it in January.
The OPKs are supposed to predict your 2 most fertile days. They're supposed to indicate "your LH surge prior to ovulation." They don't tell you that you didn't ovulate, only when you are producing a higher amount of a hormone that increases 24-36 hours-ish before you ovulate.
I think I got that right. Any "pros" out there, please correct me if I'm wrong.
Last month there was never any variation of the color of that little test line. This month, though, there has been. I don't know what that means, but I hope it's a good thing. My cycles have been so unpredictable I can't get a good average to find out when I should start testing. So I just started at the end of this last period and I'm hopin' for the best.
I have a family history of getting pg if you look at a man sideways. Just about %100 of my family started young, like 14 to 18 years old. I'm almost old enough to be a grandmother by the precedent set by them. It's kinda sad, really. But they seem to be okay with it. And they're mostly good people, just weren't smart about BC.
