Infertility

Intro- fist IVF cycle in September

Hi all! 
I thought I should post and intro as I have started commenting. So I am 34 and starting my first IVF cycle in September. 
I had done multiple IUI’s in 2013 and they didn’t work. We decided to take a break for a while. I went back to school and got my masters and figured we would give it another try. 
In 2013, I had many problems with meds (Clomid and Femara) and was told I can only do injectables in The future. I have unexplained infertility but I do have some autoimmune issues.

  • Welcome!!
    You'll find lots of support here for your IVF cycle - you're in a good company :)
    I'm 36 now, but I also did my first IVF round at 34. The whole process is a roller-coaster ride, but is so worth it when successful!
    Clomid didn't work for me, so I went into inflatables right after the first failed try. I'm afraid of needles, but it's actually not that bad.

    Hope it all works for you on the first try!
