    • Close Infertility
      Type: Hormonal Disorders

      My husband and I have been TTC since February 2006. For many months, my cycle was really irregular (i.e. bleeding for 3-4 weeks) and I wasn't ovulating. I am finally seeing a Reproductive Endocrinologist. I did 3 cycles of Clomid and ended up developing 4 large cysts on my right ovary. After doing 2 IUIs, we moved to IVF and got pregnant w/ triplets the first time (only transferred 2 embryos)

      Treatments

      Ganirelex Working / Worked
      Acupuncture Too Soon to Tell
      Starting 9/2 and going weekly throughout the IVF process...pretty excited & hoping this helps us achieve pregnancy
      Artificial Insemination Not Working
      1st IUI 5/08...failed. 2nd IUI 7/08...failed.
      Basal Thermometer Working / Worked
      Helps show ovulation while doing injectables.
      Clomid Not Working
      Dizziness, hot flashes, mood swings
      Crying Working / Worked
      I think this helps you manage your emotions. It's not healthy to keep all of this inside and I think crying is only appropriate when you are dealing with a sense of loss.
      Faith Somewhat Helpful
      Trying to regain my hope and faith that God will make things happen in due time.
      Follistim Working / Worked
      Developed 3-6 good follicles for 5/08 IUI...failed cycle. Developed 2 for 7/08 IUI...failed. Will try higher dosage w/ IVF
      Ganirelex Working / Worked
      Used w/ September IVF. Caused minor skin irritation at injection site
      hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) Working / Worked
      Caused ovulation w/in 24 hours.
      HSG (Hysterosalpingography) Too Soon to Tell
      Scheduled 8/22/08
      In Vitro Fertilization Working / Worked
      First attempt in September...HPT says YES! 1st beta 256; 2nd beta 446...now expecting triplets
      Ovulation Predictor Kit Not Working
      Doesn't help since I am using trigger shot
      Progesterone Working / Worked
      Used w/ September IVF
      Repronex Working / Worked
      Used w/ September IVF
    • Close Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility
