Trouble TTC
Options

Intro

Hey ladies,

I'm 33, have PCOS, and have been TTC since June of 2011. Last summer, my previously regular cycles became 70-90 day monsters that my doctor just kind of shrugged at and let go. I was frustrated and a Google search brought me here (omg, de-lurking!), where you ladies taught me about REs.

So thanks to you ladies, I found a clinic nearby; they've gotten my period under control and did all of the testing - all clear, except for the ovulation situation. My husband has low T/low sex drive (but great sperm quality), so he's on 25mg of Clomid a day and finally noticing a huge change, 12 days in.

Today is CD7 and I'm on 100mg of Clomid from 3-7, with a trigger shot and progesterone suppositories to come. Originally, we were only going to do 50mg of Clomid for this first cycle, but my RE didn't like my hormones. 

I woke up at 3am with hot flashes and a willingness to rampage, so I don't especially like my RE's hormones, either.

Me (34) & DH (45) - NTNP since June 2011
RE: 12/1/12 - Me: PCOS; DH: Low T
2/13: DH's T went from 190 to 777!
Cycle 1 1/25/13: Clomid 100mg + Trigger + TI + Progesterone = Ectopic pregnancy
3/7/13: MTX injections put me on the bench.
Cycle 2 6/7/13: Clomid 100mg CD3-7 = No response
Cycle 2.1 Clomid 150mg CD 19-23 + Trigger + TI + Progesterone = BFN
Cycle 3 7/21/13: Clomid 150mg + Trigger + IUI #1 + Progesterone = BFN
Cycle 4 8/25/13: Bravelle 75-112iu + Trigger + IUI #2 + Progesterone = BFN
Cycle 5 9/23/13: Bravelle 75-225iu + Trigger + IUI #3 + Progesterone = BFFN
Onto IVF - starting injects on Christmas Day
