      When I first joined ds you were one of the first people to welcome me to the IF board...You were always helpful and I felt a connection! Now that we are both on the parenting infant board it makes me smile! Im so glad to have gone thru this and I kind of feel like we were side by side in the struggle! You son is so cute! Im so happy for the both of us! I feel as if we graduated from IF to parenting! LOL

      From Beeker725 October 29

      Thank so much for your well wishes. I really hope this works too. I want to make a difference in someone's life and think that this might be were I can do that. My two sons are the result of fertility drugs and IUIs. I wasn't a candidate for IVF, so we feel very blessed. I am in the process of working on my website... and want to make sure that I am offering what people want. So I thought you girls would be a great group to ask. - Kristin

    • Close Infertility
      Type: Ovarian Issues

      We have been TTC since Jan. 2004. In Oct. 2006, I was diagnosed with PCOS. I have been on 1500mg of Metformin since Jan. 2007 and have completed 3 Clomid cycles with my OBGYN all BFN's. I did bloodwork and all came back clear. However HSG showed a problem with the uterus. I was diagnose with a partial unicornate uterus Lap surgery 3/28 confirmed no fallopian tubes and IVF is our only way to concieve. IVF #1 was a BFN. FET #1 BFP!! 9/23/08 Hayden Matthew arrived 5/9/09

      Treatments

      Adoption Considering
      If these next cycles don't work, this is our next step.
      Clomid Somewhat Helpful
      I have done 3 cycles of Clomid #1 at 50mg which made me ovulate for the first time in 2 years. I did cycle #2 at 100mg. no ovulation. My 3rd Clomid cycle was no ovulation. My s/e have mostly been moodiness (crying in particular)
      Estradiol Working / Worked
      I took this for my FET. It helped to get my body ready for transfer. My major side effect was headaches.
      Ganirelex Working / Worked
      It worked to mature up my follicles prior to ER. My biggest s/e was it cramped up my muscles.
      hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) Working / Worked
      It worked for ovulation.
      HSG (Hysterosalpingography) Somewhat Helpful
      The HSG showed that I have a partically uni-cornate uterus that is tiled the wrong way. Will need to have lathroscopic scope surgery to hopefully attach right tube correctly.
      Hysteroscopy Somewhat Helpful
      Had this done during my Lap and found more uterine issues.
      In Vitro Fertilization Somewhat Helpful
      We retrieved 28 eggs during our ER and had 16 fertilized. BFN on our first cycle but 11 frozen embies. FET in September.
      Metformin Working / Worked
      I have been on Metformin since Jan. 2007. I had bad s/e for the first few weeks but now they are gone.
      Ovulation Predictor Kit Working / Worked
      Once I started the Clomid, the OPK's actually began to work for me. Will no longer be using them. YAY!!
      Progesterone Too Soon to Tell
      Just started PIO injections so we will have to see how it does for my progesterone.
      Repronex Working / Worked
      This worked very well for me as it made my ovary produce 28 eggs!
    • Close Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

      I was diagnosed with PCOS in Oct. 2006 but I have known I had it for about 10 years now. I have IR and moderate PCOS. I have a lot of the outer effects of it (hair on my arms, neck, and stomach). I do not have regular cycles and need provera to bring on a proper AF. I only get light to moderate spotting on my own. I have done 3 clomid cycles all BFN's. FOund out in March 08 I had no fallopian tubes and a unicornate uterus. IVF #1 was BFN. 9/08 FET #1 was BFP!!!

      Treatments

      Clomid Somewhat Helpful
      I have done 2 cycles of clomid that have helped me to Ovulate but no BFP.
      Metformin Working / Worked
      I have been on Met since Jan. 2007. It didnt work on its own but I am not sure how well it works with the Clomid.
      Provera Working / Worked
      I don't have regular cycles and need Provera to begin my cycles.
      Repronex Too Soon to Tell
      Will be starting in a few months.
