Secondary IF

Intro

Hi all! I'm Jenn, 30 and live in Los Angeles. We have been TTC #2 for about 2 years and started testing this past spring. Nothing shows up as abnormal, SA looked great, HSG was clear, blood work was normal. I ovulate on a regular cycle every month. I have a 3 year old who was conceived the first month we tried so this has been frustrating for both of us.

This is our first cycle of treatment. I'm on CD9. We did 100mg of Clomid CD 4-8 and now 75mg of Menopur for CD 9-11 and Thursday morning I go in for an ultrasound with the possibility of triggering this weekend. For our first round the RE recommended we just do TI because we easily conceived last time.

We leave the 16th for Disney World so will find out if it worked when we're away. Which I think is nice, it will add to the magic if it did work and if it doesn't at least were on vacation!

    I'm sorry you have been struggling, a lot of us here had no problems conceiving #1 and def feel frustrated like you. I wish you the best of luck in your current cycle. With that said, in the newbie flagged post at the top of our message board there are some very helpful suggestions we ask people to follow so as to be considerate to our members and one Of these is NOT intro'ing during your first medicated cycle. The reason being is that we often get women who come here and are cycling and they quickly get a BFP and boom they're gone as quick as they came. It's a hurtful reminder of how left behind we are. And plus also we show support to them and there is no opportunity for reciprocation after he instantaneous BFP and exodus.

    So I welcome you to read the post so if unfortunately you have to stick around, you are welcomed and supported.
