Hello All  I am posting this in this board and infertility board to get the most responses.  Sorry If you see it double.

DH and I have been trying to conceive now for 1 year after a miscarriage last Oct.  I explained the concerns to my doctor and they started testing for infertility.  I have found out through the journey of testing I have tubal disease.   I went through lap. surgery and the RE told me quote "your insides are a mess."  I was told to that in order to conceive IVF would be the most successful.  Since I am brand new to this and don't have any friends who have had similar circumstances I need you guys to help me.  I looked online (I know not a great source) and realized my RE doesn't have the best reviews when it comes to IVF and IUI.   What references can I ask for or obtain to find out if this RE has a good success rate? What else should I be looking into before starting IVF? As some of you know this is very expensive and my insurance won't pay so I need the best advice anyone has.   

 

Thank you all

    this is a good resource

    https://infertilityfaq.blogspot.com/

    it has various subheading on side to find info and for RE's stats

    in terms of finding a good RE rec, you can post on IF board and ask for RE recs in your area.

They have a few offices in Baltimore/North of Baltimore which may not be terribly far from you. Here's a link to their website: www.shadygrovefertility.com

    They also have one of the best Shared Risk Programs for those paying OOP.
