could it really be this simple?

ok, backstory...i've had 3 failed ivf cycles. we jumped straight to ivf because DH had low morphology. don't really think that's a problem anymore, as his last numbers came back at 5% morphology (up from 2%).

we switched REs and are doing a monitored natural cycle right now with progesterone crinone in the mornings. just got my 7dpo b/w ultrasound results back...and it appears that my uterine tissue isn't converting the way it should after O. apparently, it's structure is still that of what it would be Pre O. so, i'm adding a nighttime prog. vag. suppository starting tonight.

the interesting news is that the dr. seems to think that this might be our issue. can you believe that after going through 3 fresh ivfs that my problem might be solved just by more progesterone? i'm floored.

On the one hand, that would be great! An easy fix is definitely ideal. But on the other hand...ugh for all those wasted treatments, time and money.

Do you have insurance coverage for the prog. supps? I have a box of about 15-20 that I won't be using since I'm moving on to IVF and PIO, and I would be happy to send them to you if you need them! Let me know!

i appreciate the offer, but i have to start taking them tonight. not sure if my insurance covers it or not. i think it covered the crinone, so i'm assuming that this would be covered too.

Okay, I understand. I was thinking maybe you could just buy a couple from the pharmacy and I could overnight them to you, but no biggie. They cost me $40 OOP, so I hate to waste them! I might just end up donating them to my clinic.
