Hi guys,
So my depo ran out march 2010. With same partner.
Have a 5 yr old daughter. Miscarried early in june 09.
Had day 5 bloods done jan all fine midrange normal.
Going to see GP tuesday to ask for referral to have more checks done but she told me few weeks ago I would be hard pushed to be allowed an NHS referral for fertility investigations as i already have my daughter but at 26 it is over 2 years now I have been contraception free so does anyone in uk know where i stand with seeing a specialist etc please?
Going to beg for referral and in meantime also request day 21 bloods and ultrasound as i was advised to do by someone on here.
thanks for reading x

Hi. I don't understand how you already having a daughter would effect you getting fertility treatment. If I was you I would ring your local clinic ask them the question out right if you are entitled to treatment. If it turns out you are go back o0 to GP with that.
