RUNNING OUT OF TIME AT 26YRS?????????????? lol
What?? You have penty of time, BUT when your ready to have a baby, I know that 1 day seems like 30!! Try to be positive, don't panic...deep breaths..and know we'll be behind you to help if we can. Good luck!! HUGS

Hi there, I know it feel like you are running out of time, but there is probably plenty of time for you. One of the blood tests they probably ran (on day 3 of your cycle) was probably for FHS number. It is an indicator of the number of eggs you have left. A lower number, under 10 is OK, do you know what yours was?

Not ovulating can be an easy problem to fix, but it really depends on how your body responds to medication. They will mostly likely try you on a pill (Clomid) first to see if that regulated your ovulation. The most important thing is to remain patient. Even in a "perfect" cycle there is only about a 20-25% chance of getting pregnant.

The other advise I'd offer would be to make sure your husband/partner has good count. I had a very similar situation to you and it turned out that not only was my ovulation inconsistent, but my DH had a very low sperm count.

Here if you want to talk further. Wishing you good luck and a BFP really soon.

I have no info about the ovulation but.......

I am 25 and have felt the biological clock for a LONG time now... Age is not the only factor to this and it is perfectly normal for you (and me) to feel our time ticking away even though we are in our mid 20s........ Don't worry you are not alone in that and although the wait for the RE appointment seems to take forever it will pass before you know it..............
Wishing you the best of luck

Ok not to really change the subject but I didn't know you could still have your period if you did not ovulate. I have learned more on this site then I ever have going to the ob/gyn!

Sweetie, I know this stuff makes you worried but you have plenty of time and options. Take some time to let this absorb and talk to your doctor about what to do next.

Annovulation is a very common problem. It is good that you are approaching the problem now while you still have plenty of time. PCOS is a condition that can cause annovulation. You may also want to have them look into endometriosis which can cause the heavy periods and other infertility issues. GL!!

A couple things...

1) Ask that your day cd 3 FSH level be tested along with your estradiol. FSH should be less than 10 (under 20 is still okay but a little high. Estradiol should be less than 50 (I think). These are good indicators of how much 'time" you might have (not the only indicators though). My FSH varies between 13 and 16 so my time might be limited even though I am only 33. (I have some anxiety of my own :| )

2) Have your thyroid checked with a blood test for TSH and Free T4 levels. Thyroid conditions may cause anxiety - I had near panic attack anxiety and horrible heart palpitations and then was nearly depressed for 6 months before my RE finally tested my thyroid levels and put me on meds. I feel much better now - am still working on getting pregnant.

Read other posts and other members' stories. It is not only educational but very inspiring. Don't dread the worst possible outcome. You are probably going to be just fine.

26 years old you are a young un babe! Don't stress cause that doesn't help either. Im 32 and will try till I'm 38 ish. They will give you drugs to start ovulating. You will be fine xxxx
