HSG test and secondary infertility?

in Success after IF
I'm not sure what to do. I had my lo through iui and trying for 2nd with no luck with iui. I had done the fertility testing 2.5 years ago when I had my lo. But trying for my 2nd, they went straight to iui, no testing since it was fine yrs ago. So should I push to test again? Could scar tissue form or something change after a pregnancy? I'm just having a hard time understanding why it's not working this time. In not ready to move to ivf. Tia!

    Did you have a c-section? Or an infection postpartum?  Those are 2 major reasons for scar tissue after birth.


    TTC#1 for 19 months with PCOS and MFI IUI#3 + injectables = BFP!!!!  Beta#1-134(13dpiui) Beta #2-392(15dpiui) 
    #1 born December 2011
    TTC#2 - Beta #1 -51@10dpo Beta#2 -1353 @16dpo
    #2 born May 2013
    TTC # 3 June 2014 BFP 12-1-14
    #3 born August 2015 
    #4!!!!!!! due June 2017

    I think most testing is only good for a year or so. I would definitely get testing redone. I wouldn't be as worried about scar tissue etc than hormone levels. GL!!!

    My RE does prefers a sono every 6 months and an HSG within a year of treatment.  We skipped the HSG since we went straight to IVF, but I needed more surgery before TTC #2.

    Another vote for redoing the tests. Also, a vacuum delivery can cause some trauma that leads to adhesions or scar tissue. I think we my RE we have to have an HSG done every year and bloodwork every 6 months.

    How many IUI's have you done? 

    Also, alot can happen in 2.5 years with respect to hormones, etc. so other than the expense, I would think it might be worth it to have both bloodwork and the HSG, etc. done before you move to IVF.

    IF DX: DOR & Fragile X pre-mutation carrier
    2011: FSH 13.3 & E 99; AMH 0.54 2nd FSH 6.2 E 40's AFC: 8
    BFP from Clomid/IUI ~ Pre-e and IUGR during pregnancy ~ DS born 9/4/12
    Feb./March 2013: AMH less than 0.16 (undectable) and AFC = 4;
    BFP from supps ~ DS#2 due May 2014
