Infertility

Intro

Hi All! I have been reading some of your posts so I thought I would introduce myself. 
We have been TTC since getting married in september. I am 35 and my husband is 36 so my OBGYN suggested we go right to the fertility dr. We have gone through all the testing, we found some hiccups with me (arcuate and titled uterus, and previous cervix surgeries) but the real issue seems to be low sperm morphology for husband's sperm. So we are starting IVF, I finish the pill on Monday and move on the follistim, etc. next week. Hopefully having retrieval second week of April. I am cautiously excited!

  • Good luck! And congrats on being proactive and getting the tests done right away. So important not to waste time! For me we tried for over a year but with our DX there was zero hope we were ever going to get pregnant. It's a tough ride but you'll get through it! Ladies in this board are awesome for support and a wealth of knowledge
