I just wanted to say hi & introduce myself. My husband & I have been actively TTC since June (I've been off birth control & not trying to prevent pregnancy since May 2009) I have endometriosis, & have had many ovarian cysts. I had my right ovary removed because of cysts in 2008. In September 2010 we discovered I don't ovulate on my own, through the help on our RE. In October I was started on Clomid (100mg) & had the hGC injection to induce ovulation (I had a baseline u/s before starting Clomid, & had an u/s before the injection). BW showed I ovulated 3 of the 4 follicules, but we ended the cycle with a BFN. I went in for my baseline u/s to start another cycle of Clomid for the month of November, but I had 3 cysts on my ovary, so we will not have any treatment until January. I'm hoping my cysts resolve on their own before January so we are not postponed any longer.

I have felt very alone in this journey. I've read some of the posts & yall seem like a wonderful support to each other.
