Hello Ladies,

I was just wondering how many women our in there 40 or older trying to get pregant with the help of Re and how long you been trying. I just turn 40 and I've been trying for almost
10 months with the help of fertility drugs and injectables.
Im doing IUI now.

Hi I am 39 and have been TTC since september of 06, I have a DD who is nine from a previous marriage. DH is fine, I have a problem with ovulation I had 3 previous IUI from OB/GYN and then decided to seek an RE. the RE has been much more aggresive with meds, blood work and U/S I have my 4th insemination but first with RE this saturday morning. I will be sure to keep you updated on how things went and are going.

I'm 41 on June 5.  I've been under the tx of an RE since Aug 06 when I began the whole diagnostic testing etc.   I was told I had an ovarian cyst and was waiting for it to go away.  In the meantime I got pregnant Nov 06, but lost it Dec 06 at about 7 1/2 weeks.  I think HSG cleared up my tubal blockage because I started getting pregnant on my own, but losing them.

then in Jan/Feb 07. I became pregnant again on my own but lost it right away (chemical pregnancy).  

Then I tried clomid and injectibles and IUI but it didn't work with the RE.  

Then I got pregnant again end of Mar 07 but lost it right away ; another chemical pregnancy.  I was told to wait for next cycle and come back to RE, but

Then I got pregnant again on my own in April, but then I lost that one at about 5 or 6 weeks.  I am now waiting for my AF so I can go back to RE on June 11.  

I'm hoping to start IVF now and PGD in June or July and hopefully they will identify a good egg for me.  

I think I've been losing them all because of my age because I had two children in my 20s and had no problems "TTC".   They were actually unplanned.

I have regular periods and ovulate every month.
