Trouble TTC

Read the newbie link -- is this the right place for me?

Hello everyone on 3TC.  I read the newbie link and I want to be very respectful of this board, so I thought I would ask outright if this is the place for me to be or not.  (And if the general opinion is "no," I am happy to just lurk without commenting.) I have LPD -- something that my mother, three out of four of her sisters, and a host of my female cousins struggle with.  I also have Celiac Disease, which I can make women with it more prone to miscarriages. My OBGYN suspects the LPD is my reason for miscarriage and difficulty TTC.  I have not, however, been TTC for a year, which is part of why I wanted to ask about the appropriateness of my being here.  If it's ok with you, I'd like to lurk, maybe ask a few questions as they arise, and hopefully offer some encouraging words and support as I would get to know you. 

Thanks everyone <3

  • Welcome. If you are undergoing any sort of testing or treatment then you might find this board to be a good fit for you. There are some ladies (including myself) that have not been trying for a year but have a diagnosed condition and are undergoing treatment with an RE (or some OBGYN).  I would recommend posting/lurking here and TTGP and seeing where you feel more comfortable and which group you feel you have more in common with. Good luck!

  • Welcome. LPD's suck major a**, and are definitely considered TTTC. Well, at least in my opinion. I have low progesterone and an LPD also (along iwht some other issues). Good luck undergoing testing.

    I concur.  I have a LPD and DH has low morph.  This board has been a great source of support and education.  Good luck with your testing and welcome to the board.

    Hi there!

    This place could be the right fit for you, but I  think you'd also find some people on the TTGP board have LPD as well. Whichever fits best for you - you'll figure it out :)

    I also have Celaic's and I'm interested in the research (or whatever source) you have that says it makes us more prone to miscarriages? I'm always looking into it and I've never heard that founded anywhere - I'm interested!

    This board has a lot of ladies who have diagnosed conditions and are undergoing treatment (some mild, some more radical).

    Welcome to the Bump!



    Another Celiac person! Wow!  Give me a few days to go find those articles and I will return here with them for you if/when I can find them.

    When did you get diagnosed???

  • I also have not been trying for a full year. I'm on cycle 11 and less than 10 months. I joined the board a couple months ago after we got our MFI diagnosis. I do feel very welcome and I'm sure you would as well.

    I will say that the posting on 3T is overwhelmingly about IUI/IVF, which is great info to me even though we aren't there yet. Sometimes I feel like I don't relate as much because we haven't done any medicated cycles and it seems like that is what everyone else is doing.
