Hi Ladies!! I'm really happy that I've found this forum. Lately life have been just so awful! I have been on Clomid since January and only ovulated once. Now, I'm being sent to a Reproductive endocrinologist. Has anyone one else been to one? What usually happen? I'm scared and my Husband is so supportive, but sometimes regardless I still feel super alone. My emotions are out of control and I just want to cry every time i think about the troubles I'm going through. I just feel hopeless now. Any advice?

    Been on that road for a couple years now. I haven't been to a RE yet because all my test come normal. But my cousin really recommends to go a RE. Since its been a tough road even tho my husband is super supportive just like my parents and in laws. Every month I get that late couple days super excited, to get a negative test. I know how it feels, I get super depressed and very emotional because I've pretty much tried everything. Don't be scared! Everything will be fine, keep us posted how your RE apt was.

    Most women on this board have been to an RE - so you are in good company. It's really much better. No matter how nice your obgyn is, he/she is not equipped to treat infertility. 

    Don't be scared! To be honest, you may find the RE trip overwhelming at first (many women do). It' shocking to realize how much about how our bodies work we don't really know, how many possible reasons for infertility there are and treatment options. It's a lot of information to process for many people. Just take it in and know that you have plenty of time to ask questions and get things figured out!

    Yes, you should go to an RE! They are experts. They will help you find out the problem and make a plan to fix it. Their staff is very helpful and friendly which means a lot when you are already stressed out and emotional- they understand what you are going through.
