This month I started taking EPO and its most definitely helping with fertile CM. My question is for those who are using or have used this ... have you found that its delayed ovulation, sped ovulation up or had no effect at all either way?

I took it for at least 6+ cycles and it didn't seem to affect my cycle..I might of even O'd earlier for a couple of cycles. It gave me a lot of CM though. There is some controversy with EPO with it being safe when TTC. I've heard that it does delay O for some. Try to find Chele's article in the article section, she says whey it is a controversal supplement...I believe some think it can cause miscarrages.

I know they say to stop it once you O. I believe higher doses can cause uterine contractions.

It delayed O by a few days for me.

I don't know, some say that it can cause miscarrage even early on. I took it with my last pregnancy starting at 37 weeks because he was full term but it didn't do anything ;)
