Can I join you? ***pregnancy/loss mentioned***

lovesmonkeylovesmonkey member
edited August 2014 in Trouble TTC
Hi ladies. I have been lurking you all for over a year now, but now that I have started my RE journey I would like to officially join you. DH and I have been TTC since October 2012, but because of other things (including my mom being diagnosed with cancer and passing away) we were hesitant to begin a journey with an RE. We had a surprise BFP in June 2014 which ended in a MMC and D&C even after seeing a heartbeat.  The miscarriage and other medical issues made us see an RE while we wait for my body to heal. The RE says I have PCOS characteristics and we would discuss a diagnosis after blood work.  I received my DH's SA results today-43mil total count, 54% motility, 2.5% morph. I know the morphology is a little low, but not sure what that will mean until our next appointment. I know from my lurking that there are some amazing women on this board and look forward to getting to know you all as this is an emotional and lonely journey.

    I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you get some answers with your RE soon. :)

    MH's morph is 2%, and even with count and motility lower than YH's, the RE said morphology would be our limited factor in getting pregnant. MH had to see a urologist, test for a varicocele (turned out to be a harmless hydrocele), and get hCG shots in the butt. :) (Sorry, I just love jabbing him in the butt with a needle. Perhaps payback for all the suffering we go through with IF?)

    I hope you have a lovely, short stay here!

    @kkeglar13 I will definitely let you know what happens after all of the blood work. I didn't quite understand the "characteristics" part either, but thought maybe she didn't want to confirm a diagnosis yet. I definitely have a lot to learn about IF.

    Welcome!
    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
    Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April
    12/17/14 - Natural BFP!
