Hello! I'm new to the board. I am struggling to wrap my head around our currently unexplained 2IF. 

DD was conceived naturally and quickly with no issues in 2010 and born 3/11 at 37 weeks after long labor, 3 hours of pushing and ending in an emergency C-section. We have been TTC #2 since 12/12 (with a few cycles off here and there) with no success. I saw a new OB in Feb, had bloodwork done and the only abnormal test was a slightly elevated DHEA-S. I was referred to an RE who didn't see concern with this reading since it was only in the high 200's. He ordered an HSG which I had this morning. It showed open tubes BUT that my right tube is dilated. I'm on an antibiotic and awaiting next steps from the RE.

So... here I am. I wanted to introduce myself first and foremost, and also see if anyone else has experience with an open, yet dilated fallopian tube?

    Welcome.  I'm sorry you're struggling with unexplained IF.  I think that's almost worse than any specific dx because you just don't know what to do or how long to fight.  I hope you get some answers and a plan of attack.  Good luck and welcome.  
    Happily Mrs. C

    Thanks for the warm welcome! I was hoping I'd hear back from my RE about the dilated tube today, but I didn't. Nothing like the waiting game.
