get my period at the typical time if I am taking a break from treatments? I was on treatment for 5 months and always OV on my own. I have no PMS signs or anything.... I am also now on steroids for a terrible rash- any thoughts/experiences?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I would think your period should come as normal but then again the steriods might change it some, especially if they are not something you take often. If your late I would wait a few days or call your Dr. and ask. If your curious you could always take a HPT. Good Luck!

periods are SO fickle. Going on meds can alter them, going off meds can alter them, stress/travel/diet changes can alter them. I figure they come at the whim of the Gods more than the whim of the calendar!

I've been on stims 6 different times and always ended up getting my period either on time (as in when I would have gotten it if no stims) or early. But never late. I had a failed IVF last month (was pg, but wasn't viable). Despite being on progesterone supplements which delays AF, I got mine on the exact date I would have if I wasn't only any treatment. But who knows how these meds wreack havoc on our systems.

Still no AF- I think the steroids have something to do with it.... i had bllod taken on Monday b/c of this rash business, and an HcG test was ordered since i am on steroids. It was a BFN then. I am wondering if I am just going to miss this month all together. Ughhhh.... Oh, the rash was considered something caused by a "drug" i took. i have no idea what- and I've been off fertility meds this month.... who know's!!!!

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
