How do you know if femara worked? i have a history of short luteal phase and an ovulation disorder so was given femara and progesterone to help the luteal phase. I had one follicle (20mm) on trigger day. Here I am on 7 dpo with the worst period cramping ever. I know it’s just not from the progesterone. Ive has this same protocol before and the same thing happened. I know I won’t get my period until I stop the meds but is my body telling me that it’s trying to start its period? I’m so frustrated!! It feels like nothing is helping me!
