Anyone LTTTC Number One?

[Feisty Fidget]

I just got a call from my fertility doc. She informed me that my ovarian reserve is low, and I will be going through menopause in my 30s, probably due to smoking for 10 years (I quit over a month ago). I'm 28 now, so literally my biological clock is ticking. I hate myself for smoking for so long.

So now I wait for AF to arrive and call my doc back to start cycle monitoring. From what I've been reading, I'm probably looking at IUI or IVF. I'm not trying to jump to conclusions, I'm just preparing for a long journey....

Oh sweet I'm so sorry The good news is that you found out now, not when it was too late to do anything about it. This is why I get so annoyed when people tell me I'm only young etc!

Well I am taking my first step to ttc again - back on the prenatal vitamins from tomorrow

Hi all

Hope every one is well

FF - that's great news huni, how's things with your OH?

Eswdmba - like FF says at least you found out and you can start on your new journey what ever it may be

Taro - how are you Hun ?

Ikle - how you feeling Hun? Have you had your peak yet?

Hope every one else is ok?

AFM - nothing new we are still waiting to here from pct re getting cycle back and we are still waiting for a copy of all our notes from st Mary's so just a waiting game at the moment x

Lucy - I am sorry you are still waiting to hear about getting that cycle back. That so stinks. It feels like forever for me that you started trying to get that cycle back I can't imagine how it feels for you. Sending you hugs. I am doing fine. Working a lot as it is my season right now to work, work, work. Nothing much else going on. My new RE is getting set up in his new office so we should be starting soon.

ESW - There are things you can take to improve your egg quality with diminished ovarian reserve. I never smoked and was diagnosed with a diminished ovarian reserve 10 years ago. I only make 3 or 4 eggs with the injectible drugs when other people make 20 but they are of good quality. So don't completely lose hope.

I didn't get a peak this cycle it just went down to low so I possibly didn't ov this cycle. I've been having cramps the past few days so I think AF's on her way. I did consider testing this morning but I don't want to ruin our valentines day.

Going by AF it's the 22nd of October. I have no idea how many DPO I am though so I'll have to wait for a scan to see if they say any different. My mum turns 60 (and retires) on the 4th of November, which is great timing. They live 50 miles away from us at the moment but were already thinking about moving here. The only hold up is that my Granda is waiting for a place in sheltered housing and there's no saying how long that'll take.
