Update: First RE Appt

in Trouble TTC
Well, my first RE appt friday went as good as it can go I guess! I talked with the doctor and she showed me a slideshow and went over my history with me. She said based on my records from my GYN and my charts, age, BMI, etc and DH's SA, that everything looked great and short of a blocked tube, we probably fall into "unexplained". Yayyyyy.
She did an ultrasound and that was probably the coolest thing ever. Ive never had one, so i got to see the ute, ovaries, follies, etc. Im pretty sore from the wand being shoved around in there is that normal?
My appointment fell right around O time, so as she was doing the u/s, she found a huuuuge follicle on my right side, measured it, and said "oh! well you are about to ovulate from your right side!" Needless to say, DH and I have been busy ;
The plan now is to come back in for an HSG and bw as soon as i hit CD1. She will do CD3 FSH and test my thyroid. My TSH levels were a little abnormal with bw previously done by my GYN, so she wants to retest it and possibly put me on thyroid meds any ladies here with thyroid issues? How has it affected you and are you on meds?

Thank you for your support and being welcoming. Its great to be able to share on here and i love your insight.

    Welcome to the board.  As to your questions, no - I've never been sore from the ultrasound wand.  If they had to push on your abdomen to get your ovary into view and it had a huge follie sometimes that is a little sore (the area nea

    Welcome. Sorry you have to be here. My mom had thyroid issues. She was put on medication after her 5th child and still went on to have one more healthy child who is now 13. I am always a little sore after the ultrasounds. But they have trouble getting it
    I'm 22, My Husband is 30, we got married May, 2011 started TTC August of 2011. Started testing at a little over the year mark. I think I was afraid to find out if something was or wasn't wrong. Anyway so far. Dx: Low/weak ovulation: 1st round of clomind 11/2012 no response. Didn't do anything in December because of Holidays and everything. So waiting to start so we can to round 2 of clomid 2nd round of clomid: 1/2013? image
