This is a place for those of us who have already started TTC, but have started infertility testing and/or treatments. You can express your thoughts, feelings, and frustrations on infertility. TTC can be a long journey naturally, then add in the difficulties associated with infertility, and it becomes a whole new ballgame. The road to infertility can be lonely, frustrating, and complicated, so let's make this a place where we can vent, ask questions, and support one another. Feel free to resurrect this thread at any point in the week if you have something to say. Treat this as an ongoing conversation.
Diagnosis (if you've been):
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched):
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?):
How are things going?:
Any questions?:
GTKY: If you had 24 hours with no responsibilities (no chores, no errands, no one to take care of), how would you spend your time?
Re: IF testing & treatment w/o 2/20
Diagnosis (if you've been): No diagnosis; everything looks normal, just no success.
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched): Trying meds next cycle.
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): Starting Letrozole on day 3 of my next cycle.
How are things going?: Anxiously waiting to get my period so we can try meds. I’m on Day 35 now and not sure if I’m late because last month was 30 days…but all my cycles have been all over the place.
Any questions?: Not currently.
GTKY: If you had 24 hours with no responsibilities (no chores, no errands, no one to take care of), how would you spend your time? I would probably read, maybe do some embroidery…I honestly have NO idea because that would never happen. 😂Diagnosis (if you've been): RPL, MFI and Possible Funky Blood
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched): TWW natural cycle
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): H has his SA 2 weeks ago! We had swimmers, low motility which we were told to expect but swimmers nonetheless
How are things going?: Meh our timing was garbage because we had to abstain before the SA and then I O'd just a touch earlier than usual
Any questions?: Nope
