GETTING TIRED OF TTC

I am really getting tired of all these pills my doctors are putting me on for so long. I have been taking metformin and Clomid and yet nothing. I have had about 5-6 cycle of  Clomid , two of which where 50mg and the others 100mg.  Can anybody tell me what over tests I can take to determine what is happening otherwise from my pcos.  I have been exercising, changed up my diet. :( I am wondering if my mucus is the problem. What test can my doctor do to determine that.? I have a 35 days cycle which has been really regular for the past 6 months.  can i ask my doctor to move ahead to iui? Please anybody just advise me.

So confused right now. Want this child so bad especially since I lost my mother march 2012 and I am the only child she had. Help with some advise please.

PCOS is so frustrating....I have been taking metformin for 7 months and it has really regulated my periods. But, still no baby and cannot get my doc to put me on clomid until next month. ): why does PCOS have to be this way!? And why do the meds they perscribe seem to work against what you want to accomplish? We are just the lucky one I suppose (:

cm is cervical mucus... clomid tends to cause your CM to become dry and unfriendly to sperm. preseed is a sperm friendly lube that mimics fertile CM.. u can buy it online. ebay or some fertility sites....

I have already done those tests already.  Now I have started taking my temperature but not so sure as how to check cervix position and  all. However I will research it online.

Have they checked your Fsh, hsg test, done ultra sound(us) to make sure u have follicles part way through, checked hubbys( dh) sperm count,

They can also change your day u start clomid on or up the amount again.

If u are not doing it u need to track your temps, cervical mucus, and use opks. Gl
