Hi I'm Andy.  I've made the typical progression from TTGP to TTTC and now find myself joining you ladies.  We are doing IVF in December and I'm super excited.  I have PCOS but DH is fine.  We live in Minneapolis and I'm a lawyer and DH is a doctor.

We are doing the Antagonist Protocol and I start stimming on 11/30.  I'm taking Follistim and Menopur.
