Trouble TTC

Can I hang out here?

Hello ladies! I'm Novel and I've been bumping on TTGP for quite some time and lurking here. I've just been too afraid to post anything here, until now. I hope you'll have me.

We have been TTC since July 2012. I was diagnosed with PCOS last year and I'm anovulatory. We are still in the testing phase of things. DH has his SA next week, and I have to wait until my next cycle for my HSG...womp womp. I'm looking forward to not waiting around anymore and having a plan of action! 

I'll probably have lots of questions, eventually...

Re: Can I hang out here?

  • Welcome to the board, I'm sorry that you have to be here. 

    I think IF really teaches a person patience.  There are times that I feel like all I do is wait- wait for RE consult, wait to start testing, wait for test results, wait to start treatment, wait to see if treatment worked...

    TTC #1 since August 2011

    My Blog

    September 2012: Start IF testing

    DH (32): SA is ok, slightly low morph, normal SCSA  Me (32): Slightly low progesterone, hostile CM, carrier for CF, Moderately high NKC, High TNFa, heterozyogous mutated Factor XIII, and +APA

    October 2012-May 2014: 4 failed IUIs, 3 failed IVFs, and 1 failed FETw/donor embryos

    November 2014: IVF w/ICSI #4 Agonist/Antagonist with EPP and Prednisone, Baby Aspirin, Lovenox, and IVIG for immune issues.  Converted to freeze all due to lining issues.  2 blasts frozen on day 6!

    January 2015: FET #2 Cancelled due to lining issues

    April 2015: FET #2.1

  • I'm also new to this forum. So far everyone has been extremely nice and helpful. I have also been trying to conceive sine July 2012. I took my first round of clomid this month. I had to go back on birth control for 2 months prior to regulate my hormones. My FSH and LH were not the correct ratio. They are supposed to be 1:1 and mine were like 4:1. Anyway, my husband hasn't been tested yet bc so far I seem to be the only problem. I was tested for PCOS, but I do not have it. I do have a close friend that has it, though, and she was able to conceive on her own. Good luck and best wishes! Keep us updated!

    Thanks! It's always hurry up and wait, especially with the damn appointments. I keep saying to myself it will all be worth it though.
