Nervous to proceed

Hi, I'm somewhat new here. This is my first post so here it goes.
My DH and I have been TTC for exactly 2 years. I was impatient and fibbed to my obgyn about how long we had been TTC at 7 months and I'm so glad I got this ball rolling early!
I ended up with a fertility specialist that has been amazing! I had surgery to repair a septum in my uterus in Jan '15 and they found stage 2 endometriosis and PCOS. I went on 6 months of Lupron and got the green light 2 cycles ago.
I got a BFP both months but neither has lasted and I had "chemicals" both months. These were my first ever, I was devastated. I will be having a uterin biopsy on dec 9 to check my uterine lining and then the dr would like to do injectable...protesterone??? I'm not sure what it is exactly. I know they have to do the biopsy first but somehow they are alway right about me so I'm bracing myself for this treatment.

Any advise or experience with my situation is welcome. It's hard to find info on some of these things!

Also I'm working in the lingo still thanks for reading!

Don't have much advice to offer you as I am just getting started in our IF journey, but I am so sorry you have been through all of that and I wish you the best of luck.

I don't have much advice, but it's possible they want you to take progesterone injections to bring on your period.  Once you stop the injections it is supposed to trigger your period.  I've heard of that being a treatment plan for other ladies on here.

Welcome to TB and best of luck on your TTC journey!

Sorry you have to be here. It seems like they might mean progesterone in oil (PIO) injections? Suppositories are also a possibility (that's what I had). Maybe it's to keep your lining thicker and increase the chance of a little implanting well in there, and sticking around once it has implanted? That would be my guess...

It's usually a good sign when they can figure out what's wrong, even if we don't want to hear anything is wrong. I had a slight t shape uterus (that created lining issues) and stage 4 endo. After that was fixed, things worked out. It seems like they're almost there for you! Don't give up! And this is a great group for any questions/concerns or just venting sessions.

Welcome to the community @laurenlindsey09 - so sorry to hear about your losses. Big hugs to you. Yay for uterine biopsies! I'm going for one in Jan (timing this month doesn't work). Hope you get good results... let me know how yours goes! I'm being sedated for mine due to prior transfer difficulties etc... won't bore you with the details. Apparently its not supposed to be too bad, and over quite quickly. 

I'm like @KidShrink and have had progesterone suppositories in the past which were to support the luteal phase and encourage implantation. Never had the injection version... might be different purpose, not sure.

Best of luck to you!

Thanks for the posts! I am really thankful that this group exists.
I am dreading this biopsy but it can't be any worse than the other procedures I've done ( and that's all of the encouragement I have for myself...:/)
Glad to hear it can work out @KidShrink !
As far as venting goes...it's not fair! That's all I have, it's not fair...I've said it, cried it, had a break down about it but it doesn't change anything, it's still not fair. God knows and I am fully expecting the reason for it all, I know it will come and I will be like, oh, that worked out...but it hurts in the mean time.
I will keep everyone updated. I know that we don't know each other but knowing someone in the same shoes is so helpful. It's good to post our experiences so that we can know what to expect.
This week is baby Making week so some little tiny piece of my soul is like super pumped and fully hoping that it's going to work this one last time but my brain is all, nope. Either way the biopsy is happening!
Thanks again
