Reps: 2,465,082 (power: 2,477) | | | Failed for me. I did a test last night (I was 5 days late with no signs and I got a bit excited). If I'd only waited till this morning I would have found my period had come...
And DH is still ho-humming about going to a gyno.
Do we have to go to the doctor first, THEN be referred to a gyno, or can we ring up a gyno and make an appointment?

Since you're aussie, I'll probably trust I need a referral. Well, if DH really wants kids, then he can say "yea" to booking a doctor's appointment.
Thanks

And they're incredibly expensive.
Really, my body is wacky anyway... I haven't had my period since January, I've not taken a test in a couple weeks, but they've all been BFNs, but EVERY ovulation test I take comes out positive. I'm thinking it's because I bought the cheapo brand.
Tropical Wilds,
Your symptoms sound potentially symptomatic of a hormonal disorder like PCOS. I have very infrequent and irregular periods because I don't ovulate regularly. And while it doesn't happen to me, I've heard some PCOS women get false negatives on ovulation tests.
My PCOS was diagnosed with a blood test. My testosterone was unusually high, which is often a symptom of this disorder. You might get some useful information from a full panel of bloodwork. |
