Thanks - Urgent charting questions
| Fri, 07-25-2003 - 11:21am |
Thanks you girls for all your support. You have been so helpful with your warm words and you suggestions. I think we will try to figure something out. I do not know, seems that my mood changes a lot these days and sometimes I just lose hope and stop thinking. You always give me back this missing hope.
I need to ask some questions about charting as I am new and this is the first time I am trying to chart.
My mother tongue is not English and I have some troubles interpreting some English terms. Could anyone please help me understanding these terms or you can send them to my e-mail. I really do not understand anything.
The terms are:
CM - Menses - Intercourse - OPK - Monitor - Microscope - Ferning - Cervix - HPT - Meds-
Clomid.
These are found in the data of the charting. Can I gain some understanding here..please.
Thank you all.

CM - is cervical mucous...it's the goopy stuff that comes out of the vagina through your cycle. It can be thick and white or runny or clear and stretchy(fertile)
Menses - This is your mensruation, or your period. It's when you bleed
Intercourse - sex
OPK - ovulation predictor kit...it is a stick you pee on that can tell you when you will ovulate.
Monitor - just means to keep checking
Microscope - Ferning - there is a way of seeing when ovulation is coming that you get a special microscope to look through at your saliva(spit) and if there is "ferning"(makes a pattern like a fern or plant, then you are in your fertile time.
Cervix - the is this opening from your vagina to your uterus, up inside you
HPT - this stands for home pregnancy test
Meds- is a short form for medication
Clomid- a medication that Dr will give you to help you ovulate.
I hope this helps! If you need any other help at all, just shout...
