DH and I have been TTC for 1 1/2 yrs. Just had our first RE appointment today. We had all our tests ran before we went. Everything came back good except for the SA. It had only 6.7 mil, they are looking for over 20 mil.
Also, had an u/s today and there is a cyst in my left ovary, it is 15 mm. The RE said it possibly could have been a fertilized egg? Is this common to see? I really don't want to have my hopes up but its hard not to...
If AF comes then I have to have an u/s and am starting on 50mg Clomid. How long does everyone wait to start IUI? I am thinking next cycle or should I wait longer? RE was open to it when I mentioned it at this appointment.

Well sorry, I might have said that wrong. But the Dr. said it was a good thing. And yes I have had an HSG and everything is clear.
My cycles are irregular but have been 30 days long the last two months. Right now I'm on cycle day 33. So its a little long right now. I have had lots of cramping the last 5 days but no AF yet.
And yah I'm thinking IUI is really the only option. The Dr. says we have to have over 6 mil to do it, so we barely made it!
Thanks for welcoming me! and GL to you guys too!
