Infertility

I am officially diagnosed with undiagnosed infertility!

so every test came back clear for me and hubby....

I feel like no problem is more annoying, at least if there was a problem I would be like okay I get it now its just frustrating and annoying!

Re: I am officially diagnosed with undiagnosed infertility!

  • Oh, unexplained IF. I hear you on this one! It sucks =(
    TTC in 2009, Dx: Unexplained IF
    Three TI cycles (BFP...miscarriage), five IUI attempts and 2.5 IVF cycles later...BFP!!
    12dp5dt: 765; 15dp5dt: 1979; 17dp5dt: 3379...TWINS!!!!!
    Our perfect baby boys were born at 36w1d!! 








  • I agree! My husband didn't understand why I was so upset when I was given the "unexplained" diagnosis..I so desperately wanted a reason! My biggest fear was unexplained..and I hate it!

     

    Do you have other mild issues? I have a little endo and polyps but my RE says that they aren't enough to keep me from getting pregnant..so he says its unexplained..

     

    Me: 27, DH 30. TTC since June'10. Lap. in Aug'11 to open right tube, and remove very mild endo. DH just fine. IUI #1 Oct.2011, BFN, cyst forced to wait, IUI#2 BFN. Taking a break before deciding what to do next. No family history of infertility, no known health issues. IF Blog: http://ifdiaries.blogspot.com/

  • I only had the HSG not the lapscropy???sp??? and she said she didnt feel anything either but the HSG said the tubes were clear....

    I am glad I am not the only one that finds the unexplained infertility super frustrating! I think having a reason would make it a little easier when I get a BFN, I barely test nowadays bec I feel like it just upsets me, so I just wait for AF to come instead so at least I am not said for 2 weeks just 1 week! 

  • I know how you feel. I was unexplained infertility up until I had my laparoscopy in August. My doctor felt it was necessary to try a a few months of treatment before we dove into such an invasive procedure. As much as it sucked to find out I have endo and a blocked tube, I was so relieved to finally have answers.  I understand your frustration.

    I gave you life, then you gave me mine.

  • Join the club! It sucks because you don't know what will help! It is mainly going to be focusing on trial and error at this point. But I have seen a lot of other women with unexplained get pg on this board so there is still hope (at least that is what I tell myself) :) GL

  • I understand your how upsetting it can be! I'm in the same boat, hard to "fix" something that's not broken! 

    I've had an HSG but not a  lapscropy at this point so as far as I've been told I'm labeled unexplained also!

  • Undiagnosed as well!! It sucks but its nice to know I am not the only out there that feels this way!

  • I'm unexplained IF too . . . and it does suck.  Sometimes I just want them to find something wrong with me, so that it can either be "fixed" or so I can have some type of closer that I will never have kids. 

    At first it just made me feel like I was impatient, and rushing into treatments.  But here I am 3 years of TTC, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs (success of 3rd IVF is pending) and I still have no answers.

    Being unexplained is also really difficult when it comes to talking to friends or family.  Not that talking about IF is really ever easy.  But I?m just tired of people telling me to be patient and giving me bad advice.  I feel like if I could tell people there was a reason for my IF, they might be more understanding or supportive.  If there was a medical reason I feel like people would see that medical reason as opposed to seeing me as just being impatient or not ?doing it? right.

    TTC Since June 2013
    Got pregnant on our own without Fertility Treatments - January 2016!  Thank you snow storm Jonas!
    EDD 10/15/16
    At 20-week anatomy scan found IUGR (Intrauterine Growth Restriction), and very low Amniotic Fluid.  Now, I'm High Risk and have weekly ultrasounds to monitor fluid and growth.  If baby runs out of room or is too growth restricted, they will deliver ASAP.  My current goal is to make it to 28 weeks!

  • I know I totally agree, its way worse being unexplained then having a reason, I would rather have a reason so they can fix it or give me meds to help fix it and Toni your so right about the bad advice part too, We went out a few weeks ago, and my husband's friends wife, who just had a baby in August and I guess she has PCOS where she doesn't ovulate every month, well she is like I know this sounds ridiculous but have you tried gaining wt bec that's what they told me to do(uh hello you weigh like less than 100lbs), I am at a normal wt and have always been!!!! I know this sounds ridiculous but you should have sex every 3 days and I am like to her you have no idea what its like...ANNOYING!
