Sometimes things are harder than they look...
Well my HSG came back normal...so did hubby's SA. My Prolactin and Thyroid are off so now have more meds...I started one cycle so far, did 100mg of Clomid, however my body didn't respond to anything...So after several times back to the office, 3 painful ultrasounds in one week and blowing out veins in both of my arms, my doctor decided to stop this cycle. And I'll be honest, I bawled...It's hard to get a phone call from your doctor saying your body just isn't responding to the meds so we have to stop...so now he wants me to do 100mg of Clomid and Injectibles at the same time, and add a trigger shot! I'm excited...and terrified...I never thought I would be that person who has every day planned out on what they have to do next, and wait for the phone call from the doctor saying "ok you need to have Intercourse now"...I never thought my body would be so broken...So now I wait for AF to come, so I can go for another ultrasound, then take pills and inject myself, then another ultrasound and bloodwork, and hope that I get that phone call finally saying my body is working...

My Visit to the Tulsa Fertility Center
On Friday, February 3rd I decided to take my journey to a new degree. I visited the Tulsa Fertility Center. I saw a Dr. Prough, He asked me a ton of questions, went over the premade list i had, and we got started. The first thing that happened was an ultrasound after our talk in his office. During the ultrasound was extremely painful, they discovered the 15 or so cysts on each ovary, several cysts in my uterus and also a few on my cervix. My uterus lining was pretty thick. I go back in 2 weeks to have a Saline HSG to check my ovaries and discuss what my next options are. There is a possibility I have endometriosis and we will discuss that further then as well. He did a full battery of tests, ended up being 6 vials of blood so we should know better where we stand then. He also started me on Glumetza so hopefully that will start helping without all the side effects of what I was taking. I'm excited for the future and anxious to start taking the next steps!!!
