Infertility

Hi- New Here (losses mentioned)

hi everyone!
i've been posting on the ttcal board. But here I am, about to start my first IUI cycle if this natural cycle doesn't pan out. I've had 2 losses in the past 3 months, 5 & 4.5 weeks. I have ever so slightly hypothyroidism and low progesterone. I'm currently on progesterone after taking Ovidrel this week to trigger this past Monday. I'm not optimistic. So I'm hoping to learn a lot about IUI and IVF here, my RE says I have to do 3 IUI cycles before we begin IVF. I'm such a newb to this its ridiculous so if I sound ignorant it's because I am! 
Anyway, I hope you are all ok if I "sit here" too. Thanks. :smile:

  • @rainbowwishes5...im sorry for your losses. Because of my different IF issues i cant relate to the IUI method but as someone who is struggling in ttc. Through IVF i can relate to the anxiety and stress of it all. I wish you achieve a successful pregnancy!
  • @rainbowwishes5 I'm so sorry about your losses. I too am a total new to this so don't worry, we will be clueless together to begin with. Good luck with your last natural cycle, I'm half way through mine too.
