in TTC after 35
Hello 
I have been lurking for some time. I don't think I have posted an intro here so here we go.
I'm 38
I had unexplained infertility in my twenties. My husband and I saw an RE who ran me through countless tests, supervised clomid cycles, several injectables (what? I can't remember it's been so long ago) and we did one iui, all unsuccessful. The marriage became abusive and I left him.
I met my now husband.
We have a daughter who is six and I had her when I was thirty one. No medical assistance was needed to conceive her.
Last September I had a mmc at 12wks5days.
I had a d&c with complications due to AVM (Arterial venous malformations (AVM) of the uterus) No complications since.
We waited the appropriate time to abstain and got the ok to try again from the dr. Cycles have not cooperated. Some cd44-cd60
Last cycle was finally average at 39day w/o needing to force w provera.
I began using OPKs while temping this last cycle also. Thanks to the awesome girls over at TTCAL, I understand OPKs and charting a lot better
I am only seeing my gyn and we have a three month plan of just getting my cycles back to average and trying to conceive without medication. My gyn has said she will refer me to an RE once we have exhausted her current scope of practice.
I look forward to getting to know you all better
