Secondary IF

Question

Hi,

I havent posted since I was pregnant with DS #1-but now that Im having difficulty conceiving #2..I found myself here..

 So we have been trying off and on for about 2 years ( probably 18 months) there were a few months I tried to NOT get preggers due to bad timing with upcoming events-so my last GYN appt we discussed PCOS and possibly needing some extra help. At what point did you decide to try something more?

Im 30, and my DS was conceived my first cycle off BCP-my DH wants to just keep trying, I however am getting a little discouraged.

Re: Question

  • wecome and sorry you are having problems!  i also got preggo with DS within the first 2 months off BCP, and this time around we saw an RE after 12-13 months of trying (although it was more like 15-16 cycles).  my husband was a little of the same way, wanting to just keep trying, but i just knew something was wrong.  I ended up having low AMH, so I am glad we did get testing and figured out what was wrong since its only going to get worse.  Good luck to you!

  • Welcome! My story is a little different since I had IF issues when I was TTC DS #1. My GYN ran a few blood test (mainly hormone level tests) to see if there were any causes for alarm. She also had me go for an HSG to see if there were any issues with my uterus or if there was any blockage. She also had MH go to a urologist for a semen analysis.

    For us, everything came back normal. At that point, if your GYN hands to a prescription for Clomid .. run away! I didn't, but I also didn't know then what I know now. For whatever reason, Clomid never worked for us. Although I'm sure if I was actually being monitored, we would know why Clomid never worked. It was at that point that my GYN gave me a referral to an RE.

    Good luck with whatever you and your DH plan as your next steps!
