    You really will not need to bring anything, if you would like to bring your charts some Drs will look at them, some will not - but it is good to have them if your Dr is pro charting.

    I would urge you to seek a specialists help at this point though. Ob/gyn are great at pregnancy and delivery, but lack a lot of what a specialist (RE) can bring to the table. If for what ever reason you choose to seek help through your ob/gyn please push for testing of both you and your H before starting any type of treatment plan.

    Some basic testing that is done on all IF patients are CD3 bloodwork, ultrasound and HSG as well as an SA for your H. It is important to know if there may be a cause of your IF before starting a cure.

    Good luck!

    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
