Hello everyone! I conceived a healthy baby girl 2 years ago on my own, but ever since I have have not gotten my period. We have been trying for over a year now with no success. I have a history of an eating disorder and my RE did a bunch of tests and I have hypothalamic amenorrhea. My estrogen was 42 for my baseline bloodwork and my ultrasound showed a very thin lining. I have been on 75IU of follistim and will have another ultrasound on Sunday. Any success stories or tips for me? Thanks everyone!
Re: Just started follistim 3 days ago! (trigger warning baby mentioned)
A little trigger warning when mentioning a child is recommended as most women here never gotten that far and like to screen posts.
No success story from me. But as a tip; don't be to hard on yourself. I've noticed since I joined this board that we women are our worst enemies and are extremely hard on ourself when not getting that BFP right away,
Do change some unhealthy life choices by healthy ones, but don't get all angry when enjoying yourself with bag of crisps and wine.
I would recommend to take steps in your own time, if you need a break, take one. If you have questions, ask. If you are worried, tell someone.
GL on your journey, you can do this!

PS. The "visitors: please read this first before posting" thread at the top of the forum goes over the trigger warnings to include in your subject line in order to be sensitive to the community! I would recommend editing your post and adding the appropriate warning, and then just add a little mention in your post about why you edited as well.
