Intro & Thanks

in Trouble TTC

Hello!

I have been a lurker for a few months and my DH urged me to finally introduce myself.  We have been TTC for a little over 2.5 years and have been seeing an RE since about the 1 year mark.  We went thru all the standard testing (CD3 bloodwork, HSG, SA, etc) with all normal results.  So, our official DX is unexplained infertility. I do have some occasional erratic cycles and my body decides to skip ovulating a month or two every year, but my hormone levels are normal.   We have completed 6 medicated cycles (3 on Clomid, 3 on Femara).  We are currently in the 2ww after our first IUI.  DH's numbers were great (90 million, 90% motile).  I had a giant follicle - 28mm - my largest to date.  I am currently 9dpiui and they told me to test next Sunday (16dpiui), but I am sure I won't make it that long.  I have been testing out the trigger and have yet to get a full negative.  

 Anyway, I just wanted to say Hi and Thanks.  I have learned so much in my time lurking and felt much more prepared for my IUI than I would have been otherwise.  You are some awesome ladies. 

 

Me: 31. DH: 50. Married 11/07/09. TTC since 7/2010.
First RE visit 7/2011. All tests (bloodwork, HSG, SA, etc.) normal. DX: unexplained infertility.
3 cycles Clomid = BFN
3 cycles Femara + Ovidrel + TI + progesterone = BFN
March '13: Femara + Ovidrel + IUI#1 + progesterone = BFN.
April '13: Femara + Ovidrel + IUI#2 + progesterone = Cancelled No response.
May '13: Femara + Ovidrel + IUI#2.1 + progesterone = BFN
June '13: Femara + Ovidrel + IUI#3 + progesterone + baby aspirin = (3 follicles, 110 million sperm) = BFP!!
BETA #1 6/21/13 13dpiui - 161

    Welcome and GL.  FX that IUI #1 is successful and your stay (at least your non lurking stay) is a short one.

    Getting some more testing and trying to figure out what the issue is before FET in December, started acupuncture on 11/10, RLP and some other BW nothing major to report except slightly high Prolactin. Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg.  Endo biopsy=negative.  WTF is wrong with us???
