My story... one blocked tube...

Ok girls, here's my story... I've never posted on this site, but have been stalking it for quite sometime.  I'm VERY sad and just wanted to share.  None of my close friends seem to understand, because they've all conceived successfully within a few months.  I feel I have NO ONE to talk to about this, besides my husband. --- I'm 31 and my husband (who's 33) and I have been TTC for going on 15 months.  After a year of continual disappointment, I finally had an HSG done on the 10th of January, only to be even more disappointed.  I have a blocked fallopian tube (left side).  My OBGYN suggests that we just keep trying for at least another 6-8 months.  He says my chances of conceiving with only one tube within 2 years is 90%.  Has anyone else ever been told this?  He did suggest we get a second opinion and I do have an appt with a specialist next Wednesday.  My husband only wants to wait about 3 more months (b/c of the increased fertility after HSG) and if it hasn't happened by then, he wants to go the IUI route.  I don't know much about the IUI's, but what I do know, is that my insurance doesn't cover infertility!  We're already out $1700 for the HSG!  I've been very depressed and need someone to give me a little ray of hope/advice.  Currently on CD 8.  I ovulate fine.  Progesterone is fine.  Husband's little guys are fine.  Only problem that I know of - my one tube.  This sux.  You guys seem to do a pretty good job of keeping each other sane.  It's been great reading everyone's stories, so I just wanted to share.

You should go visit your Dr, they can prescribe you a drug called clomid that will help regulate your cycle and ovulate. They can do more test to see if all your hormone levels are where they should be. Look into polycystic ovarian syndrome, that's a condition where you rarely ovulate if not at all. Have you tried taking your basal body temperature? Then you can check to see if your temp rises which indicates ovulation. Good luck, I hope all is well!

I'm a 29 year old woman from South Africa who recently got married a month ago, on monday 19 March 2012 I was very sick n my husband tuck me to c a doctor who told me my tubes are block and he gave me medication to help them open up. Since that day I'm not a peace, my husband who's very supportive doesn't like me taking that medication he kept on saying I should trust Jesus and everyone else says the same thng thy said God closed thm for a reason whn the it my time to hv babies then he will open my tubes. So to everyone let's Trust to the lord who's our creator he created the doctors too! He's the biggest doctor he will make a way fo all of us let's continue to pray fo each other and remember ladys what's impossible to man is possible to God I love you all may God answers your prayers
