I have thought it is a likely treament for several posters and often wondered why some women are not candidates for this route. In my method of thinking, if the pituitary is responsible for Lh, FSH, etc. Why aren't some women treated for pituatary disorders? There is one poster in particlar I have been thinking that is a likely cause for her infertility. Do you mind me asking what tests they did to detemine it is pituatary? Your age? Do you have any ovulatory activity at all? I am not trying to pry. I just like to learn about the things I do not have answers for. IMO, some cases are pituatary and just not looked into far enough. I am not a medical professional. I just have been at this ttc game for so long, when something comes up that I am unfamiliar with, I like to learn all I can. It can be pearls of wisdom for others even though it doesn't apply to me. Thanks for helping!
