Just found out another girlfriend that I don't see very often is now prego, she used to drink and smoke and she is no spring chicken but probably under 35. So a guy friend looked at me when I found out the news and said "pressure's on you!". His fiance just got prego with ivf, so he understands, but still..... I am finding out if I can just do donor egg and forfeit the next two cycles. 5% is just such a small percent w my own eggs, I shouldn't be stupid and waste anymore time messing with old eggs (no offense to anyone else on here). I will figure it out after these laproscopy results. If things are all messed up in there, then I will go for donor egg maybe.
Again, thanks for listening. And I really don't want to offend anyone, I am just losing hope so fast.

Bonnie1990, wow, that's awesome! I swear it's just a matter of time. And for the next 3 months or so, they say after an hsg, you have a slightly better chance...

 

[PositiveUs]

I'm kind of hoping that after my lap, I will even have a better chance naturally between cycles. I have to remember to be thankful that any of the eggs they got last time were viable enough to even fertilize. I am reading on here that some people get like 14 eggs and none are mature enough to fertilize, or they fertilize and then don't progress.

Hi everyone! I've been away and of course...AF arrived the first day of my vacation
I'm off to the FS this afternoon to talk about options and if we need to do any testing.
Wish me luck...

Trying and Bonnie: My FX for you both!

 

[trying4four]

Thanks Kismet. Welcome to our group! I think you joined while I was on vacation

My FS thinks we're going to get pg on our own without intervention. Hormones and ovarian reserve are all good and apparently, I have a picture perfect uterus and lots of follicles for this cycle DH is going to have a SA done this week just to rule out anything with him and I'm going to have a HSG done next cycle. If those tests come back okay, and I'm not pg by October, then we'll try an IUI because I'm having trouble with ECM.

That sounds like a good plan trying!
So glad that everything it falling into place!

After my hsg, talking with DB about him getting his sa, I think he thinks its him now or timing. Our timing hasbt been that bad but could be better. He was asking what do we do if they are all dead? What do we do if they are mostly crap?
I just found a page in ff that reports in your bd schedule for each cycle. It gives a good visualization. I think I will print it for him and see if that helps.

He will go for sa this coming Monday or tuesday after Ov

If his tests are ok and no BFP this cycle I think next month we will start clomid. Doc said with iui but I would rather not do that yet.

That's great Bonnie! DH goes for his SA on the 31st (next Tuesday). If there is anything wrong with 'the boys', then we won't go any further. Hopefully all is good there and it's just a matter of waiting it out. We'll see.
So glad that your HSG came back okay. Did it hurt having it done at all? I'm going to have it done next cycle in August.

 

[Bonnie1990]

It didn't hurt at all!
I took 4 Advil and a valium for my nerves 30 minutes before. But I really don't think I even needed it

Just got my smiley face!
It's go time!
Sure hope everything is flushed out and ready to go!

Mine will probably go on the 31st too.
If there is an issue I think the most we would do is concentrate the "good" ones for iui. I doubt anything more.

Had laproscopy and hysteroscopy on friday. They put you under general anesthesia. I never shaked sooooooooooooooooooooo much in my life after waking up from that! It's like I couldn't control the shaking, it was ridiculous. I didn't get sick though thank God.
They said that my right tube is open, that it was probably open all along but the way the hsg and my body were positioned may have made it appear to be blocked back 6 months ago. So they did not remove my right tube. They said the ovaries and fimbrae and tubes look healthy (which I cannot believe). They found extra-uterine endo that adhered my uterus to my bladder, so they unglued that. They also found some sticking my ovaries to the pelvic wall (or something like that) and they unglued them and drained them?? On the interior of the uterus they said that because of my cycle day (around O) it may have made it harder to tell (even though he said it could be done on any day of my cycle) but he did not see any endo that he had to remove. So they did a biopsy of the endometrium which will tell the real story.
This is really the best scenario I could ever ask for.
Now the real test is just the eggs. Are they simply too old or not? and the only way to tell for sure is ivf.
Now I have to wait for 2 periods before starting another ivf cycle. But I get to try naturally after this month's AF in like 2 weeks or so.
It is so nice not temping, not opk'ing and not symptom spotting. There is no chance of pregnancy at all.
The pain was BAD the first day, then got better saturday and sunday was very good. I still feel the air bubbles floating in my body but they are not nearly as painful as the first 2 days!

 

[Bonnie1990]

I'm so glad you had good results! How reassuring!
In regards to your eggs has your AMH been tested?

 

[trying4four]

That's great news Positive!!

 

[PositiveUs]

amh is low - 0.43 and then 0.39. Low, low low.
fsh is around 8, 9, once it was 10.4 i think.
the clinic bases percentage rates on amh and mine is low.
