First RE consultation

Mummytofour · Mar 19th, 2010, 11:24 AM

Hi ladies,
I finally got my GP to refer me to an RE after nearly 3 years TTC#5 and a loss in October 09.

My question is...what should I expect, if anything, from this appointment?
Will he just do the normal bloods that my GP has done, ie, cd21, TSH, prolactin etc, or will he do a scan as I suspect I have mild PCOS????

Any girls with experience of this, your input would be most appreciated as I don't want to waste this long awaited opportunity!!!

My first RE just wasted my time and did a endometrial biopsy after 2 appointments...2nd RE did the SA and an ultrasound on my uterus and ovaries...had to ask for bloodwork which I have yet to do. Discussed reproductive history of both if us...my cycles and other various factors and then discussed the different AC's technology and statistics and any areas he may see as being a problem...treatment.
