Hi Ladies,
I realized I never came out and said a formal hi. So, hi! I sent some of you messages asking what you would do in the very beginning.
Anyways, I went off BCP in September 09... and then had some long cycles with "periods" (probably withdrawling bleeding). I went to the doc at the beginning of this month. They took some blood and gave me provera. I go back to the doc in 2 weeks. I know my prolactin and thyroid levels are ok... but thats all I know right now.
Any suggestions for a newbie would be appreciated!

April - November 2010: Prometrium then clomid - BFN

Welcome! When you say you are working with a doc, do you mean RE or OB/GYN. Depending on how old you are and insurance situation, you may want to consider working with an RE and getting a full workup for you and your hubby.
I don't ovulate on my own, and in my experience, OB/GYNs just wanted to get me to bleed. My REs wanted to focus on why I was not o'ing and correct it.

No suggestions except try and stay positive, there is a lot they can do for anovulation.
Good Luck!!!
Thanks for the welcome.
Right now, I am working with my GYN who specializes in Fertility. I am young enough that I am not in a huge hurry, but my DH is old enough that we need to be moving. I do plan on asking about an RE at my next appt. It is encouraging that my GYN isn't obcessed with me having a period. More just ovulating.

Let me know how your appt goes! I go back on the 7th to my GYN... Clomid was mentioned in my first appt, but they wanted to check everything with a blood test first.
Good luck!
