follow up appt with my RE and our plan

in Trouble TTC

we had our follow up appointment with our RE on Tuesday and after all the testing RE thinks we need to go straight to IVF.  DH thinks we need to get a second opinion, so we are and in the meantime we've been enrolled in a cliical trial for natural IVF we go through basically the whole IVF process with no medication.  I'm not getting my hopes up because as the reasearch nurse said "there's a reason IVF works, medicine".  So far the plan is to see how the trial goes then if it doesn't work second opinion, and most likely move on to IVF.  I'm happy to have a plan, finally.
