Trouble TTC

Wish me luck! *update*

So after getting into my RE's weeks earlier then my appointment, now I've gotten my period much quicker then expected! I was put on provera and I still have one more pill left and I already got AF. Soo we're on to CD3 testing! Tomorrow I'm going in to get my blood drawn for hormone levels, do an ultrasound, and a 2 hour glucose test. Wish me luck! I'm probably the most nervous about the glucose test. If I pass, I can use femara with my IUI and that would be awesome since clomid doesn't seem to work for me, and I'm hoping to not use injectables right away. 

 Also, I'm sure this is a ridiculous question, but I know these tests (At least the ultrasound and checking the hormone levels) are typically done on CD3 but they're having me come in on CD2 because they're less staffed on the weekends. Not a big deal, right? I trust my Doctor, but thought a second opinion (or 3 or 4) wouldn't hurt. Thanks ladies!  

Update:

I think overall the appointment went well. The glucose test was not as bad as I hear people say it is. The worst part is after; I had a headache and felt a little woozy but not bad at all. I also just heard that I passed the glucose test, so that's good news! My hormone levels all came back within normal ranges too, but during the ultrasound the nurse said she could see some little cysts on one of my ovaries and she said it may indicate PCOS. The only other symptom I have of PCOS would be irregular cycles, so I'm interested to hear what the Dr. says. I'll go in to see her next Monday, so I'm looking forward to that! 

 Thanks for all the luck!

  • GL tomorrow, and yes, baseline testing can take place on CD 2-4. I've gone in on each of those days before with no issues.
