Dx: Non-IR PCOS
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
PAIF/SAIF Welcome!
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.
If you're interested in additional support PM me on and I can invite you into a facebook group I admin - we have a view girls with PCOS (myself included) and all girls are dealing with IF to some degree.
Good luck!
