For many years that I've been reading about infertility and getting pregnant I've encountered lots of terms that at first I was like"what is this?" and often times i stop reading and search for the meaning of that abbreviated word or the acronym.
I gathered some of the words and listed them here hoping that it would help those who are reading about infertility too.
TTC - Trying To Conceive
CD- Cycle Day
OPK - Ovulation Predictor Kits
BD - Baby Dance (which means making love or the intercourse)
BBT - Basal Body Temperature (this is being use to chart your body temp, to know if you have ovulated or not)
HPT - Home pregnancy test
AF - Aunt Flo (menstrual period)
BFP - Big Fat Positive ( which means a positive pregnancy test)
DPO- Days PAst Ovulation
PCOS - Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome - which is my case :(
Those are the very common acronym words I see from day to day, but feel free to add the words you know too.
Rocks, I too do not know these terms until now. Much more the abbreviations.
