We've been working on baby #1 since July 2013 using Open ID donor sperm. 8 IUI attempts with 5 actual IUIs and one chemical pregnancy. We have one fresh IVF cycle under our belts as well as a FET. I have endometriosis and a uterine septum that was corrected via surgery in November 2013.
11/14/14 - Second HSG shows that tubes are still clear and ute is looking good.
12/6/14 - Started BCPs in prep for IVF #2
12/22/14 - Saline u/s and endometrial scratch (All was clear and OUCH!)
1/2/15 - Began stimming for IVF #2
****All Welcome!****
We are Mommas to four fur babies - 3 dogs and 1 cat.
Let's see, he's an Internal Medicine Dr which means he just graduated from Medical school. I'm not saying that isn't hard in itself but he's never even studied gynecology in detail. My husband is board certified family practice which means he did have to do extra internship after medical school in OB/GYN than some of his colleagues that are internal medicine Dr's. There is no way in hell I'd let my husband diagnose any gynecological disorder or deliver my baby (unless in an emergency). He's just not qualified. Gynecologist spend years doing fellowships in gynecology AFTER they graduate medical school and are Internal Medicine Dr's.
This being said there is no way in hell I'd listen to anything Dr Drew says when it comes to gynecology, he's not qualified. He's only a glorified internal Medicine Dr that is now famous.
Married on October 20, 2012. Began trying in January 2013. RE appointment & testing December 2013 - February 2014= Unexplained IF, possible endometriosis IUI#1- March 22 (100mg clomid, 75 mg of Bravelle, Ovidrel trigger) = BFP!!!
I find him generally irritating, and he's gotten so much worse in the last few years (with celeb rehab and all). He had his moments when I was still a teen, but I couldn't stand that he seemed to think any woman who enjoyed just hooking up was damaged must have been abused. Cause there's just no way a woman would have sex just to have sex. Yuck.

That is just horrific. It is because of doctors like him they never figured out what is wrong with me. It is because of doctors like him really sick people are made to feel crazy.
What an asshole!!! I only ever watched his after the show-shows on Teen Mom 2. Now I know for sure that I will NEVER watch him again. He obviously doesn't know anything! I don't have endo but my sister does an suffered for years before her uterine ablation at the age of 29!! She would be doubled over for days during her period which lasted at least 10-12 days every cycle. Endo is real!!!

Dr. Drew has always been a bit of a twat-waffle, in my opinion. He's full of genius statements like this, (including lots of homophobic comments regarding anal sex), so this doesn't surprise me at all. Jerk.
