It's CD16 with no ovulation in sight. It seems to me that my fertile signs are slightly more pronounced, but nothing compared to what I usually feel. I have only responded poorly to oral ovulation inducers once, and that was my first cycle on clomid (taken cd5-7) when I ovulated on CD21 with poor fertile signs. I had been responding slightly less well to the femara each cycle though, so I'm not sure what this is about.
And while I do not under any circumstances think that stress causes infertility issues, I do believe that it can delay ovulation through elevated prolactin (which responds to stress) and other hormonal surges. I think it's safe to assume that I was under a lot of stress last week at the very worst time in my cycle, and that may be the culprit. I'm not giving up yet. The ovulation predictor kits are still showing no signs of an LH surge, but I'm not out of the realm of possible ovulation yet. I am very worried that I won't at all though, and then I believe it will be on to injectibles for me. The financial cost of that is what worries me the most. We already have difficulty affording the copays for an oral cycle. I don't even want to think about an injectible one. DearNurse has already made it plain though that they would help me in any way they could. God bless the women in that office.
And I swear, although it seems like it in my posts, I'm not completely dejected. The joy of Christmas is starting to fill our home, Hubster and I are on a really good run, and we go out with good friends tonight to celebrate a birthday. Thank goodness my home life is fulfilling in every other way.
