Hi everyone!
I've been lurking this board for quite some time
now and you all have helped me so much already! My husband and I have
been trying for our first baby since fall of 2010.After a year, we
decided to head to the OB/GYN to have some testing done and get a
referral to an RE.
We've been diagnosed with PCOS by our OB/GYN and our RE. I'm on Metformin and have been since last October. So far, I've had blood work done, ultrasounds and an HSG. My husband has also done a SA. Everything checks out clear (SA, HSG) other than the PCOS diagnosis.
This cycle, we're coming off of a break and taking Clomid again with monitoring by our RE. I'm excited to intro here finally and to learn even more from you all!

I'm glad you caught that! I have definitely been lurking and know how much of a no-no it is to do clomid unmonitored thanks to checking this board out before I went to the RE for the first time!
