Today marks the 21st day of this first full cycle on my program, and what SHOULD be my Luteal phase (approximately the 7th day of my Luteal phase)... however, I have yet to experience my typical Luteal swelling, so these measurements are without swelling.
My updated Luteal measurements are:
Underbust/Bust: 29"/35.75"
Waist: 26" (!)
Hip/Butt: 40"
So as you can see I have had minor growth (according to the tape, anyway), although I honestly don't see it (only when I wear any of my bras I can see the difference... but I still have soft, limp Follicular-like boobies going on). And I lost another half inch off of my waist! ...and did not gain anything on my butt.
My BBT chart looks nuts. My first two cycles without extra hormones followed very clear and obvious patterns, and the Luteal cycle of my last cycle just dropped an average of a degree, still managing to be slightly higher than my Follicular phase, and still following a pattern. However, after the introduction of my PM, my temps look like the silhouette of the Rockies. I really cannot see any point of ovulation, and my temps are actually slowly dropping
and are, on average, lower than my Follicular phase temps! I have spotted about twice, once of which was very heavy (noted in my last update). I just, HOPE that my period comes on time, and that my body will adjust to these new hormones soon....
Additionally, I think after this month's supply of Maruman pig placenta is finished, I will start using Otsuka Pig Placenta Collagen C Jelly from Rakuten, because it is still cheaper than Maruman and it has more stuff in there that will benefit my program!
