New Member - intro

Hello ladies.

I'm new to these boards and hope to meet some new friends. I'm 37 and we've been TTC#1 for 8 months.  After 6 months without success, we saw an RE and have the following results:

DH - 31 - SA reveals everything's great except morphology - high WBC's and he's completed his antibiotics

Me - FSH 6, progesterone 9, HSG was clear but revealed uterine polyps. Had a lap and D/C which found stage 1 endo (very mild) and pathology showed abnormal cells from uterus. Am currently on Megase to thin my uterine lining and will biopsy in 2 months.

RE wants to proceed directly to IUI after my biopsy to counter my advancing age after a 3 month wait. Does anyone have any experience with any of these situations? I feel so alone - I'm thankful that this has given me a chance to prevent future cancer, but I'm so ready to be a mom.

Any advice or words of wisdom are appreciated. 

Me - 40, DH 34 Married 11 years, TTC since 7/09 3 rounds of Clomid > Vivienne born 5/28/11
TTC#2 since 01/13 - 3 rounds of Clomid, 2 IUI w/injectibles, moving to IVF
IVF #1 - Lupron 20 6/19, Follistim 225 6/21, Menopur 75 6/27, Trigger 6/30
ER 7/2 (8R, 7M, 5F); ET 7/5 - 2 8 cell, grade 1 and 1 7 cell, grade 1 Stick babies, stick!
BFP on HPT at 11dp3dt
Beta #1 13dp3dt 787
Beta #2 17dp3dt 6,007
1st u/s 5w2d showing one "good" sac and 2-3 questionable
2nd u/s 6w2d showing one baby with HR 128bpm
3rd u/s 7w1d - HR 159bpm - graduated from RE!

    Welcome, I hope your stay is short.  I have some experience with endo - my siggy has more details.  I am currently stimming for IUI - which I think will take place on Thursday.  I would be happy to talk further about my experience so far  if you have questions.  good luck!

    Welcome and good luck.

    I am also AMA (Advanced Maternal Age) - I am 38.  Given our Dx, we went straight to IVF, so I have no advice on IUI or Endo, but wish you a short stay here.

    Just that I love lizards (and snakes and turtles) and I love to knit.  I couldn't really come up with a good user name, and I'd like some anonymity just in case people I may know IRL are on these boards.

    Glad I could make you laugh... :)
