Trouble TTC

Hi!! Ready to make some TTTC friends!

Hi all!!

I figured it's probably time to intro here and participate! I have been part of the TTGP board since January and although I'm bummed we are moving to treatment next cycle, I'm glad to have this board also!

So...I'm 30, H is 32. I was diagnosed with PCOS this spring after being off BC since 2/2015 and still having super wonky cycles (and no BFP, obviously). Our first RE appointment was last week, so we are officially starting treatment (and I'm getting my HSG) next cycle! I've had all the feels about this next step, but I am excited and relieved to be moving on to a plan with a greater chance of success than what we've been doing!

I'm excited to get to know all of you!!

I am new here too and look forward to keeping up with you to see how your testing turns out! Thanks for sharing!
