Trouble TTC

XP- Initial consult done!

My appointment went really well. I was so nervous and wishing DH was here more than ever to go with me. I felt at ease as soon as the doctor came in. We reviewed my history and quickly put together a testing game plan. Based on a lot of things he suspects I have some form of PCOS and/or a thyroid issue. Both of which run in my family. So I had blood drawn today for hormones and thyroid screening. I go in 7DPO for progesterone blood draw and then, he believes, most likely will start metformin.  Monday I have an HSG scheduled which makes me very scared especially since DH isn't here. Depending on what they find I may have a lap. He also thinks that I will need to go on bcp for two months to "reset" my body. All of this will be ran by the RE once my tests come in. If I have to do more than medicated TI then he will make me go to the RE. 

I feel so so relieved. I can't believe he was so on top of the testing and scheduling so quickly!  

Question: Should I have someone drive me home from the HSG? Any other advice?

Re: XP- Initial consult done!

  • I would have some drive you just in case. If you have never been on metformin then I'd start slowly. It makes me sick. I finally got a slow realse tablet. If you have trouble with it then ask your dr for those, they make it more bearable.

    I would talk to the doc about alternatives to BC for "resetting" your cycle because that can cause more long te
