Clomid can help for it, as can Vitex and for some Soy Isos. I'm on my first cycle of taking vitex to hopefully get the same result! Congrats on your success using Clomid! That's wonderful.
Ok, so it sounds like it's something like premature follicle rupture? I can't find anything clear about it in a medical context Join now to personalize. Original poster's comments 2. Oh wow-I have no idea but I want to know now!! Following with interest. I actually haven't heard those two separate terms on here but yeah I'm curious now myself if there is a distinct difference.
From what I've read, weak ovulation is when the follicle doesn't develop enough to lead to a viable pregnancy and not enough progesterone is produced to support it. Do I have a weakness for cheese? We all know that you need to have sex during your fertile window to have the best chance of getting pregnant.
This means having intercourse during ovulation. Woo hoo! However, your hormones need to be balanced for the egg to fertilize. One of the key ways you can track ovulation is to monitor your progesterone levels. When you ovulate, your ovaries will ideally release a mature egg. Then, the egg makes its trip down the fallopian tube anyone else picture the egg with a backpack? Most women will ovulate between day 11 and day 21 of their cycle.
To calculate when you ovulate, I highly recommend an ovulation prediction kit. Your hormone levels should be within a specific range to get pregnant. These levels need to be sustained during the luteal phase, which occurs after ovulation and pregnancy. Typically, the luteal phase begins around day 14 of your cycle. During this phase, your hormone levels will start low and gradually increase through pregnancy, rising every trimester. If there is an imbalance in your progesterone levels, this can lead to anovulation or weak ovulation.
There are several ways to monitor your hormone levels to check for weak ovulation. These include many brands of ovulation testing kits as mentioned previously and hormone monitoring products. There are many different treatments for weak ovulation on the market in the form of creams, pills, vaginal suppositories, and injections. Pills are the least effective as the liver metabolizes the medication before reaching the rest of the body.
Therefore, these treatments are more suitable for women with slight imbalances. In addition, progesterone creams should only be used as soon as ovulation is about to occur, and never before. Obviously, do NOT use any hormones without speaking to your doctor. Equally, suppositories and injections will be provided by your fertility specialist.
Again, your doctor will tailor these medications specifically to your needs, ensuring you take them exactly as directed. During hyperprolactinemia, the excess of prolactin reduces the estrogen levels, causing infertility. Women who are overweight or obese, may also experience hormone imbalances that impact their ability to conceive. Medications like nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs such as ibuprofen can affect ovulation when taken for extended periods of time.
Steroids, even those prescribed by a doctor for medical use, interfere with the hormones needed for ovulation as do some epilepsy medications. Some ovulation disorders can be diagnosed with an examination, medical history and menstrual history. But other disorders require laboratory blood testing to positively diagnose.
Based on the symptoms that a woman presents, doctors will test for different hormone levels. If a woman has PCOS symptoms, for example, the doctor will likely test her testosterone and insulin levels to make a determination. Once diagnosed, most ovulation disorders can be treated with lifestyle changes or medication. A doctor may recommend nutritional adjustment, fertility inducing medications that supplement missing hormones, or stress reduction.
Women who have irregular or absent menstruation should see a fertility specialist if they are unable to become pregnant within 12 months of unprotected sex with regular frequency six months if the woman is over 35 years of age. Do I need to see a fertility specialist? Ovulation disorders can cause infrequent and irregular ovulation, as well as anovulation, or the absence of ovulation, which is a common cause of irregular menstrual cycles.
