Trouble TTC
Options

New to this board but not The Bump

Hi!
I used to be active on the TTC board last summer/fall.  I recognize some people's handles on here!  DH and I have been TTC 10 months.  I have PCOS and just started clomid on my first cycle.  Currently in the TWW. FX it works!  If nothing happens after 3 cycles, my OBGYN is referring me to an RE.  I look forward to posting on here and reading about everyone's stories.  Good luck to everyone on here!

    Hi! Yes. I have to go for blood work to get my progesterone Checked to see if I did actually O. She said I could have gone to RE already if I was more comfortable. She had me do the HSG, labs, U/S, DH's SA, before clomid. My insurance sucks so I'm trying to stick with OBGYN as long as poss before the RE. No insurance coverage of fertility treatments. I know an RE would be more thorough, and if after 3 unsuccessful clomid cycles, she will insist I go to an RE.
