We are still in the pre-screening phase for TTC our first. I feel like everytime I have a test I find something else wrong with my girly bits. I was diagnosed with PCOS at 13, so I knew that having a child was going to be an adventure. On top of misbehaving ovaries, it looks like my tubes are blocked and my uterus has "issues." The HSG didn't go well and my next step is a Hysteroscopy so that they can do a biopsy of my lining to see if I have endometrial hyperplasia. Fun, fun! (humor seems to help me with all this... I hope it doesn't offend.)
I know that in the grand scheme of things that there are women who have it worse and I am still blessed. I'm trying to be patient, but that's hard sometimes.
I'm grateful for this board. It helps keep things in perspective and I know there is a group of supportive women, some in the same shoes I am in, who are there to listen and provide feedback/advice/support.
So, I just wanted to say 'hi' and 'thanks' and I will check back in later when I have a question or just need to rant.
