Infertility sucks

hope102004

My husband and I have been trying for several years now. I'm only 31 but no go. I went down the road of getting tested. My left fallopian tube is occluded and my husband has male factor infertility. The fertility Dr put me on 100 mg of Clomid hoping to stimulate my RT ovary and do an IUI. My body did not respond appropriately to the Clomid and I had only 1 follicle on my Lt side which had the occluded fallopian tube. Round 2 Max dose of clomid 150 mg same response as round 1. Infertility is so brutal. I have all the side effects with no results. It's so painful to imagine our lives without children and I feel so defeated. I'm emotionally drained and I hate this long drawn out process with no end in sight.

Hi there, 
I completely hear you and agree with you. The whole process is so bad, filled with ups and downs. I start one with hope, another one with disappointment and desperation. I wish you best of luck!

I totally get it. We tried naturally for two years, and it didn't work. So almost a year ago we started IUI treatments, and after three, it hasn't worked. I am so happy for my friends who are starting families, but inside it really kills me. Best of luck! And a lot of love.

Just tell me about it. Every single soul around me is starting a family and now I'm at a stage that it's so hard to even congratulate them on their big news.

Hey there, how you doing ? still nothing ? I know trying is hard, ..I'm 31 as well, trying for 8 years and nothing, I have ovarian cysts and both fallopian tubes blocked, I tried herbs, meditation, sex every damn day for first 5 years, after all that I tried acupressure, and Eastern medicine.. recently I got even convinced a miracle happened and thought I was pregnant, to the point when I saw my late period came I thought of suicide... I was devastated and still am, I know how you feel, and I can say that because I'm in the same boat, I'm tired of trying and keeping hope, I heard of fertility massage which been successful but it is even more expensive than IVF or IUI, and not in Canada..! not sure what I can do more, I do not eat sugars, I do not have plastics at home or aluminum to be on safe side i do not use chemicals at home I do everything you would think is right, in order to be heathy, clean, for your body to work properly... took a bunch of different supplements, all expensive but with no results, I'm so pissed off, asking myself non stop why me? what did I do to not deserve a child... I thought of surrogate which is expensive or adoption but I can't go with that, as do not want just a child, I want to go through the beauty of pregnancy, and challenge of delivery, to call myself a mother, to truly feel like one, this is so frustrating, I wanna scream.. and the thought of some women who dumped their born to garbage or other cases like this I feel so sick.. how one can have a baby and yet not appreciate it, and another wanting it so badly and a God or whatever saying big brutal NO.! to you...

Wishing you success - clomid did nothing for me either. I can’t even remember now if it was 5 or 6 rounds before docs gave up on it for me. Femara could be worth a shot if clomid continues to not work. Best of luck!!

I hear you! It's not an easy journey, and if you can't find people to support you it's just so annoying and tiring. Wishing all of you amazing people success, I hope we all will get the family we want in the end.
