exactly!!
Trying to get my bloods right so I can breed and get an **** spanking off Mother Nature herself! Thanks love!
Seriously hate being a woman at times like this! (And during birth!!!)
I've started using the natural cycles app. You take your temperature every morning and tell it when you're on and it uses this to track when you are ovulating and when you're going to come on. You can tell it if you're trying to conceive and it will tell you which days you are fertile so you can get busy, or you tell it you want to avoid pregnancy and it tells you which days you need to use a condom.
I'm not entirely convinced by it as a method of contraception, but that's not why I started using it. I started using it because my bloods increase when I'm ovulating and when I'm pre menstrual. So I increase my basal and my bolus to deal with this, but I'm never entirely sure when I'm ovulating or when I'm going to be pre menstrual. And when I come on, I head in the other direction & am more insulin sensitive. And that is like flicking a switch, I go from being hormonally insulin resistant with pmt (which I deal with by giving more insulin) to hormonally insulin sensitive when I come on - which has caused some serious hypos when I've still got increased basals going before realising the switch has been flicked!
So I'm hoping the natural cycles, which uses temperature and ovulation tests to track exactly where you are in your cycle will help me be able to change my insulin in anticipation, rather than fire fighting.
exactly!!
