Hello Ladies!

So as I take the next step in my TTC journey, I feel I will benefit greatly from joining this board as well.

A little about me...

DH and I have been together for 7 yrs, married for almost 3yrs. 

 18 months ago we decided to try for a baby, needless to say still no baby.

I have never been pregnant and DH has no children from other relationships.

At the 10mo mark DH  got an SA, a few issues were pinpointed (concentrations, abnormal forms, pH)

DH was referred to urologist. The urologist basically looked at us as if we had two heads and just said results seemed alright to him.

At the year mark I got tested by OB/GYN .... low progesterone, high testosterone, high LH to FSH ratio, question over anovulation ... Placed on clomid 50mg and progesterone = no result.

Now at 18 months I scheduled an RE appointment. And that is where I stand now. Tomorrow is my first appointment, DH is coming with me and I have copies of all my bloodwork.

So here is hoping for some answers. Thank you for listening.

    Sorry you are here, but welcome. I hope your appointment goes well tomorrow.  have you had an HSG yet? If your tubes are blocked, the meds can't help.  Just something to think about.

    ************** Siggy Warning************


    Married August 2012 -- Me (40 yrs old) My husband (45 yrs. old) 

    RE referral from ObGYN in late Jan. 2013 -- Testing Confirms Unexplained IF

      Decided to do IVF... Began stimming on September 10th!  Egg Retrieval 9/20/13.  19 eggs: 6 to mature to freeze after 6 fertilized with ICSI

     3 morula stage embryos transferred on 9/25/13.....Beta #1 on 10/4/13/ = 7.5  Beta #2 on 10/6/13 =  negative

      IVF#2 - Lupron plan  (set to begin on 10/28/13)  (Planning on thawing and fertilizing our 6 eggs with ICSI as well as all of the mature eggs they retrieve with this fresh cycle.)

    ER = 1/14/14  (11 eggs....9 were mature. 9 fertilized.  Of the 6 mature eggs we thawed, only 4 fertilized.  At this time, we have 13 eggs fertilized and growing.  Waiting for news about a 3-day or 5-day transfer.)

    ET = 1/19/14  (5dt).....3 blastocysts transferred!   (All nine embryos didn't make it to freeze.  =(  )

    Beta #1 = 1/28/14   (2 weeks after ER)  BFP! 209 (9dp5dt)   EDD 10/7/14

    Beta #2 - 1/30/14  (11 dp5dt) 302

    I completely agree. I believe HSG has to be the next step.
