Infertility

CF and pregnant?

I was just wondering if there is anyone else out there with CF that is trying to conceive or is pregnant?  I am 28 and have been trying for 2 years.  Every test has come back "normal" and they gave us the bs diagnosis of "unexplained infertility" with the side of we think it's because of your CF.  I just want to know what other people have done to get a positive.  This has been a hard road and so frustrating, that I need to hear a positive story!

Re: CF and pregnant?

  • Sorry, you are on the wrong board for positive stories. We are all struggling with an infertility diagnosis and are still trying and going through treatments. You may want to check on Pregnant after IF or Success after IF boards for success stories, and what treatments worked for them.

    Good luck!

    Stay here to talk about IUI/IVF treatment options and protocols, meds, infertility and the hard road it is. We all get that!

  • You may also want to check out HIgh Risk Pregnancy.  Some of the ladies on there may have experience.  Good luck.
  • I know someone through these boards who got pregnant with mild CF. She had to do an IUI because her CM wasn't the right medium for sperm. I would suggest going to see a reproductive endocrinologist (RE) for further testing and treatment.

    Husband has cystic fibrosis. I'm a carrier. We did TESE, IVF, ICSI, and PGD. After two failed IVFs, we were blessed with our twins.
