Hello Ladies! I'm 33 and I've been actively TTC for 15 cycles. AF was expected yesterday, and so far no sign of the
! I did test at 10 dpo and got a
. However I thought I ovulated earlier. If I would have known, I would have waited to test. I plan to test again tomorrow!
I started seeing doctors about 6 months into my TTC journey. After a series of tests (which took about 5 months to do), I still had "unexplained infertility"; although I was found to have adenomyosis. I had an HSG in August 2012, and was really hoping to conceive after that. To no avail though.
My BF has a daughter from a previous relationship that will be 3 this June, so I don't suspect any issue with him (although he does smoke).
In my TTC journey I've:
-lost about 25 pounds
-started taking iron pills
-started taking B-complex
-started on a multivitamin then later a prenatal
-started using progesterone cream in the 2nd half of the cycle
-used an Omega Oil blend, but discontinued Feb. 2013
-used Exclzyme serrapeptaste capsules, but stopped in Dec. 2012 (too expensive and I didn't see much of a difference in external scarring).
-started using Vitex in Jan 2013
-first cycle (the one which I'm still waiting for AF) using royal jelly/bee propolis/bee pollen capsules.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I conceived this cycle. I didn't expect to get pregnant right away, but I also never thought it would take more than a year. Oh well....the longer the wait, the sweeter it is I guess!
