Re: IF Testing / Treatment w/o 8/5

  • @misshelen86 Any word on if they can fit you in for an earlier US?
    It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*

  • @misshelen86 glad most of your BW came back normal...hopefully the FSH number isn’t concerning. I hope they can get your referral in before you actually have your US! 
  • @hanshotfirst77 So sorry your results aren’t exactly what you wanted. I’m glad to hear you’ll be able to move forward with the ER. I hope that you’re still able to do your October transfer. 

    @emeraldduchess So glad to hear your results came back normal!! What a relief!

    @inthewoods23 Getting close! So excited for you!

    @NYTino24 so glad they have super early monitoring appointments, that way you can still get to work and don't have to disclose treatments unless you want to. Also glad that everything looked good. Rooting for you lady.

  • @ruby696 yay, so exciting!! 
  • @ruby696 wooo! Good luck!! So excited for you

    @emeraldduchess it takes me 2-3 days from progesterone suppositories according to my charts
  • Okay so much good news on here! I'm still trying to catch up but... 

    @misshelen86 yay for normal labs! I hope they can squeeze you in earlier too. My RE had a 6-7 week waiting list too so I get you on the waiting frustration 😬.

    @emeraldduchess I'm sorry for the BFN friend (read your TWW update). It's amazing how the Progesterone impacted your LP! Lots of FX for next time, friend. 💜 

    @ruby696 excellent news!! Lots of positive vibes for good eggs.

    @shoogapuff that sounds like an excellent plan! I hope the Clomid + IUI will do the trick 👌. 
  • @emeraldduchess IMO (not that you asked for it...) IUI was a waste of money. Especially since you pay for the IUI but they also tell you to have as much sex as you want because there's no such thing as too much semen. Okay, so then what am I paying for? I guess if you have CM issues, then it might be a good thing? Or if YH has issues with sperm maybe? I can see the advantage of the sperm wash and IUI in those cases.
  • @ruby696 I'm starting to come to the same conclusion looking at DH's and my test results. His SA was good and as far as I know, I don't have any CM issues. At this point, we're thinking that for us, the odds of IUI and TI are about the same. We'll see what the RE says, but my guess is she'll focus on my wonky LP/hormones because based on all the test so far, that's probably what's making it harder for me to get and stay KU.
