Hi, I have been wavering back and forth about where/when I should post. I have come to the conclusion that it probably belongs here. Here's a little background, Hubby and I got married on 07/04/10. I was dxed with PCOS and Hypothyroidism in 2005, I take metformin and synthroid. We sort of figured I would have trouble conceiving so we jumped the gun a little. I went off BC in Jan of 2010 and we started ttc in May of 2010.
2010 brought 4 periods total, 2 trips to the ER with burst ovarian cysts, a dx of endometriosis, an hsg, and a laproscopry to remove said endometriosis. At my post op appt I mentioned that I had only received 1 positive ovulation test since starting to test in May. At that point the Dr. wrote me a script for clomid. I called a month later because I still had not received my period and was put on Provera.
Started Clomid in February, I am now on my 3rd cycle on CD 21 with a positive OPK on CD 17 and the worst ovulation pain I have ever had on CD 18. Has anyone else had terrible pain with ovulation on Clomid?
I went to the gyno last week, the clomid has me ovulating so he is hopeful. I have 3 more rounds and go back in July for the referral to the RE. Hubby has to get a SA if this month doesn't work. It is nice to be in a place where others are going through similiar things. It is hard going to work every day (I am a speech pathologist in an elementary school) and being around all these pregnant women (8 in the past year alone!).

This exactly! Clomid can be dangerous if you aren't properly monitored. Most importantly, welcome to the board!
Two C/P and Lots of Tests
Me = LPD + cancer survivor, DH = low count and morphology
IUIs #1-5, January 2011 - June 2011 = BFN
IVF #1 in July/August 2011 = BFP!!!!!
"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear."
Agree with all pp!
See Clomid warning in my siggy. If you have had issues with cysts in the past, I would want to be EXTREMELY cautious with Clomid.

Ditto and ditto. I hope you are able to get to an RE to get the proper monitoring and your BFP! Welcome!
