    • Close Infertility
      Type: Endometriosis

      TTC for 4 plus years. Dealing with endometriosis and DH low morphology, other than that unknown as to why we cannot conceive. Had miscarriage 6.04, lap. surgery 12.05, DH surgery 9.06. We started with 3 cycles of Clomid, two with IUI, then took a break. We then tried 2 cycles of Follistim. Then took another long break. We're now on the 3rd cycle of Follistim all with IUI's. 3rd cycle had to be canceled due to risk of too many follicles. Now looking to other options.

      Treatments

      Adoption Considering
      Artificial Insemination Not Working
      I am starting my 5th overall cycle of Follistim and 3rd with an IUI.
      Basal Thermometer Somewhat Helpful
      It kinda stressed me out having to stay in bed to check my temp every morning. Plus I never got a great spike to indicate ovulation even though I know I ovulate.
      Clomid Not Working
      Three cycles of Clomid and two with IUI, did not work for us. ):
      Follistim Too Soon to Tell
      See IUI.
      HSG (Hysterosalpingography) Working / Worked
      Tubes were clear.
      In Vitro Fertilization Considering
      Ovulation Predictor Kit Working / Worked
      Showed that indeed I was ovulating.
    • Close Miscarriage

      After only three months of ttc, we were pregnant. Just 3 days after confirming with the doctor, we lost the baby. It was a shock and it took us a long time to confront the grief. Meanwhile we're still hoping to start our family.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      It was helpful. I wish I could have continued but we moved out of the state.
