Hey all, I have come up with my PM regime that I intend on following for 5 months and then evaluating. May make small changes along the way depending on my cycle. Here it is:
I will be cycling with the moon phases (period on the new moon, ovulation on full moon---> I am already aligned to this but as I have an IUD I may soon lose my period)
Days of cycle-------Phase------PM Pills (500mg)----- Moon
1-4----------------Menses----- 0 -----------------------New Moon
5-7----------------Follicular--- 0 ----------------------
8-9---------------Follicular---- 1 -------------------------
10-11 ----------- Follicular---- 2 -------------------
12-15 ----------- Follicular---- 3 -----------------------
16 --------------- Ovulation--- 3 ---------------------- Full Moon
17 --------------- Ovulation--- 2 ---------------------
18-19 ----------- Ovulation--- 1/2-------------------
20 --------------- Luteal ------ 1 ----------------------
21-25 ----------- Luteal ------ 2 ---------------------
26 --------------- Luteal ------ 1 ----------------------------
27-29 ----------- Luteal ------ 0 -------------------------
1-4 -------------- Menses -----0 ------------------------- New Moon
FENUGREEK TEA- Days 18-25 (1cup-->2cup-->1cup over this 7-day period)
The days may vary a bit of course, but I intend to always begin the first 7 days of my cycle with zero pills and always end the last 3 days with no pills, the pill taking will roughly follow my outline. (I've written it in my calendar and from how the moon cycles, there are some cycles where I will maybe get a pill less)
Soooo.... I will be taking PM for 19 days and not taking it for 10 (assuming a 29 day cycle).
On average per month I will be getting 17,000mg of PM (Compared to 15,000 mg of a 15 day On/Off cycle).
I am going to see where this gets me! Will post my profile below.
PS- for anyone's curiousity on how I formed this regime, I did alot of research and chose which days to take my PM and the fenugreek, and how much based off of wikipedia info.
