Soy Isoflavones Questions

I've been reading a few posts about this and I am a little tempted to give it a try for next month (assuming I get a BFN for this month, which I'm pretty sure I will). Anyway, my questions are for those who have used it as part of their sway and got PG... 

How many cycles after you started using it did you get your BFP?

If you know baby's gender already, did it help you sway boy?

What, if any, were some drawbacks?

For how long did you take it?

TIA!!

Hi- I took it this cycle and got a sticky (so far) BFP. I m/c the last two and this cycle it worked. I go tomorrow for an ultrasound and I'll give you more details then. But Basically I took 100mg from CD 3-7, it gave me headaches so you may take them at night. Other than that I had no side effects, some of the ladies on our ttc board had mid cycle spotting. Good luck!

I took 80mg days 3-7 the month i concieved my son. 

Thank you ladies. Is there a specific brand you used? I know they sell at Walmart (Spring Valley brand) and at GNC (Natural Brand and Irwin Naturals). Does it matter which one I get?

BB, FX you get desired gender

i used the Spring Valley Brand.

july is a great month to TTC boy.  lots of bbqs, potato salads and watermelon which are all good for the boy diet. 

Thanks vets! I won't find out gender for a while but just hopig bubs is growing well tomorrow! I used Irwin's naturals which had a blend of 100 mg soy along with TT and a lot of boy friendly supps. Just so you know it acts like clomid do you shouldn't use more than 5 days and cd 1-5 will produce more but lower quality eggs 3-7 still has risk of more than one egg but good quality and cd 5-9 usually produces 1 really great quality egg

You ladies have been VERY helpful, thank you! I'm going tomorrow to pick some up, AF is due next week and already I'm feeling the way I always feel when she's right around the corner Hoping they give me that little boost I need to get my BFP soon

I have one more question, hope I can get some replies...

Did taking the soy iso's push your O back at all? I read that it may push it back a day or two BUT I also read about a couple of cases where it pushed it back by a week? My O has been right on time every month, I wouldn't mind a day or two but a whole week? That might be a little much

It didn't push my O back. From what I understand women USUALLY O 9 days after last dose, but I know it's not fool proof. GL!!
