Hi everyone. I am a regular on the TTGP board but we have now on our 7th cycle TTC and I am AMA (41) so I wanted to join the conversations on TTTC and here - specifically to lurk and participate in the IUI board next month. Sorry to everyone who already read my very similar intro on TTTC.
H and I got married in this spring and we started TTC #1 right away. Blood work showed that I have very low AMH so I started seeing an RE after just a few months of trying. All other tests came back normal for both me and H. I am just starting cycle 7 and will be taking clomid this cycle with an IUI + trigger in a couple weeks.
I try to keep a really positive attitude and not get caught up in the frustration or fear of IF. I have found TB community to be really helpful with that. I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.
