Tina1111; Infertility Drugs

You wanted to know what it was that I took...

January 07 started taking prenatal vitamins and metformin (I do not have PCOS). AF showed up on the 8th.

February 07 started taking Provera, Clomid, Estradiol and Prochieve 8%. AF showed up on the 17th.

March 07 continued taking all the above except the Provera (helps with starting AF). AF showed up on the 21st.

April 07 no AF by 19th so I tested... just to see. I had absolutely no side affects, which doesn't help much.

Last year I had 2 diagnostic Laparoscopies; one in Feb 06 and one in Dec 06 (this one was with chromotubation). I had a biopsy on June 30th. I also had an HSG in Jan 07.

I'm willing to answer any questions... I'll keep posting and I hope you all will do the same.

I almost forgot to tell y'all.... I'm 4 weeks 2 days!!!!!

Much love, Jess

Thank you so much for the info. According to my dr I don't have an infertility issue. I continue to wonder. I am 41 now. I ttc through most of my 20's without luck. Was on b/c for a few yrs in my 30's then went off. Wasn't ttc, nor avoiding and nothing. Late 30's ttc for 3 yrs and nothing. Then at 40, new dh and I decided to try. I told him I don't even know if it's possible. Amazingly, it happened on 1st try. I mc because of placental separation. Genetic tests showed all was normal with baby(relief). So now I'm wondering if it was a fluke that I did get pg. With time running out, I'm thinking of asking dr to put me on Clomid. I've read good and bad things. All my bloodwork is normal and the scope showed everything normal. I don't know what to think anymore. I just know I don't have years to try. I am so happy the meds worked for you and definitely want to hear all the stories as you go along. Thanks again for sharing with me/us. :)

Hi Sheila,  No we haven't gotten to that point yet. I don't think he has issues, but you can't judge a book by the cover either. I'm probably obsessing again. It's only been a few months since mc and I'm terribly impatient, lol who isn't? I was amazed that we talked about ttc one day and like 2 weeks later bfp! That is still blowing me away. I'm still kicking myself for doing too much when pg. I don't know what I did, but it was strain, so therefore, my fault. If I knew then what I know now, I'd be a big fat slug, lol. At any rate, I've been reading a lot on clomid and it seems like a possiblity for me. Dr said normal couples 1 yr ttc, advanced age 6 mos(I just love that "advanced age" ****) So I'm looking at the options for discussion in a month or two.

Has you new "life husband" been checked? I think you said he hasnt when you told me about Lysine(Dh has low volume...Im still trying to get answers if that is the same as low count).  DH and I same boat Kinda....we got PG after only 3 month (2 really tryin)  but ended in MC and now nothing for 8 months (also thinking maybe a fluke???) Started clomid yesterday..so far no side effects :O)  hopefully this will be the boost we need.  super sticky baby dust  ((Sheila))

yeah I loved "advanced age" i look like I'm 18 :O). I'ts not fair to get PG so quickly and have a loss and then it take so long.  I thought I would be PG by the end of last year since It was so quick last time and now i was cleaned out from DNC . You can't blame yourself for what happened.  You didnt know.  It most cases straining is not a problem so dont beat yourself  up.
I have friends who have used clomid and have no issues but hot flashes (just what we need in Florida LOL)  and all single births for my fingers are crossed.  What Cd are you?  Are kyou POAS yet?  super sticky baby dust ((sheila))
