Infertility
new here: anyone live abroad?
Hello!
I don't know if I belong here or TTTC, but we're dealing with MFI... oligoasthenoteratozoospermia to be exact (super low levels on everything but normal hormones). It's a level 3 OAT if that means anything. That's what the urologist called it here anyway.
It's very isolating to deal with IF and being in a foreign country with a different language also is difficult. On the bright side the medical system has been very thorough so far.
Looking forward to getting to you know all. Thanks!
(Live in Europe) TTC since 1/2010

Re: new here: anyone live abroad?
Welcome to the board!
Generally, TTTC is for people starting out, IF for people going through treatments with an RE, mostly more advanced: IUI and IVFs. But there is a lot of overlap, and the board have different personalities, so I suggest seeing which one is a better fit for your preferences. Lots of girls post on both boards.
GL with your treatments.
Two C/P and Lots of Tests
Me = LPD + cancer survivor, DH = low count and morphology
IUIs #1-5, January 2011 - June 2011 = BFN
IVF #1 in July/August 2011 = BFP!!!!!
"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear."
Welcome to the board!!!! What country do you live in???
I am so sorry that you feel isolated. This board has a bunch of great women, who offer support and knowledge on anything. If you feel that this board is for you, jump right into replying to posts, usually the easy one's firsts such as BFP or the BFN posts (offer a congrats, sorry's, etc...).
Good luck to you!!!
