CD8...Clomid Cycle #5...Anyone wanna be my buddy!!!?

[Clomidgirl]

So DH had a dr appt today just with a different family dr for a second opinion about his low testosterone and some other things. He informed us that testosterone injections have the ability to make you sterile..... Ummm ya that was my fear. DH did not believe me so im glad he heard it from the doc. He referred us to en endocrinologist and did a semen analysis today. Which will be 100% covered since his family dr ordered it and not a fertility specialist .... So yay for that!! I'm considering testing on Saturday... I'll let you know what I decide! Lol
That's so frustrating your having -opk with cramps, I wonder what the deal is?!

 

[pambolina21]

Well thats great news!! I will pray for good news!!

I don't understand it either....I can't catch a damn break...opk's still lighy as ever...my cramps are like AF cramps...ecen feeling it in my butt...lol...I think I'm gonna go make me a pizza and find some other junk food and just hang out with my girls...no more testing....then schedule that ridiculous appt so I can get my results...

 

[Clomidgirl]

Lol that sounds fun ... And yummy!! I need something to take my mind off it all too! Sometimes a break is good, just keep BDing regularly just to be safe!! I can see the fun in testing early and often, the possibility is exciting! Plus its SO hard to resist!! Lol

 

[pambolina21]

Junk food didnt help...lol...

So I made the appointment...Tues at 11:00....$150 to tell me what I already know...only thing I will get out of this is probably lab work for my CD21 test..

I realized today rhat my pee samples have all been lemonade...I cant seem to get a strong sample no matter how long I hold it...maybe thats been my problem...

 

[Clomidgirl]

Finally broke down and tested today, bfn of course. Not even the slightest line. It is only 11 dpo but feeling very hopeless today I'm so nervous that dh's injections made him sterile. If it did im seriously going to go after the dr that prescribed it to him without explaining that it DOES make you sterile... Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. Do you think this has happened before? I literally have been crying about it most of the day. I hope we get results back on Monday.... can't believe this is happening, I feel so hopeless

 

[pambolina21]

Awww...I'm so sorry sweetie...TTC is a tough road to be on...so much uncertainty...it'll be fine...like you said it's still early...ane even if its a BFN this cycle id does not mean something is wrong with hubby...I wouldnt stress about that till you get results...but yes I do think you should rip the doctor a new one for neglecting to inform you of the side affects...Try not to beat yourselr up...Stress isnt good for woman...goes straight to their ovaries...lol...

My body is confusing me again...cramps and EWCM is back...still no positive OPK...temp hasnt risen since yesterday...it's actually the same as yesterdays...TTC can really bite the big one...lol

 

[pambolina21]

How are you doing?

 

[Clomidgirl]

Hi pambolina, sorry I have been Mia the last few days! I have been pretty upset about everything. Started AF today, and bawled for hours. we're still waiting for DHs SA results but hopfully we get them back wed or thurs cuz if they are bad I am not going to take the cLomid for a couple more cycles. My dr will only let me do clomid for 3 more cycles so I want to do it when DHs count is good! Hopefully it's already good though! I don't think I will take opk either maybe just regular bding every other day, this is stressing me out so bad! And it's taking a toll on our relationship. How do you deal With the stress and keep your relationship strong? I just want to not have to stress about it! Freaking ALL my friends and fam are preg right now, and if I hear one more complaint about how uncomfortable or nauseous they are I might punch them! All they do is talk about babies and the whole time I'm trying not to burst out in tears!

But that's enough about me and my pity party! How are things for you? I see your 2 dpo??! Yay for that! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!!! Keep me updated! Hope the 2ww goes quickly for you.

 

[pambolina21]

I'm so so sorry the witch got you
Vert smart thinkinh about the clomid...I would wait too...we stilk have not had our results...we will learn them on Wed. next week. Obviously something is wrong with our results or we would hear about it over the phone. FX for not to terrible news!!!
I know how frustrating it can be to have so many fall preggo around you...my FB page is full of preggo updates and new baby pictures All the woman I started with on BNB is either preggo or holding their babies...it sucks...Don't neglect yourself honey...speak up...tell them to back off on the chatter...
Sorry to hear that TTC is taking a toll...but like an indepth matter it will happen...juat try and have fun with it. Make theme nights or experimental nights ...lol...I tend to keep my hubby out of the loop about my body...but inform him of the important days...then we try and go into it as relaxed as we can...and its not always possible with our girls...lol... I wish I couod help in this department...but I'm not very good at it sorry!
I pray for good results for the hubby so you have a chance next time...

Sorry to hear you didn't o that is frustrating. So are you Going to be doing another clomid cycle? Will they up your dose? I like the idea of kinda keeping hubby out of the loop about some things, I think he would prefer it that way and he wouldn't be so stressed. I do have Facebook, I'll find you!! Hope both our dhs results come back ok, so frustrating!! Did you ever find out about the hsg? I will be calling hubby's dr again tomorrow to see if his results are in, since tomorrow is cd 3 and I need to start the clomid (unless it's a bad result) if so we will be out at least 3 months boo HOPE that does not happen!!!

I honestly dont know if I will or not...guess it just depends on our test results...which we will learn on Wed.

My phone is.dying and acting up...I will write more tomorrow when its charged!

 

[Clomidgirl]

Well today is a very very awful day. Got dh's SA results and it showed ZERO sperm.... Yes this was my worst fear. I just knew this was the problem. I am so heartbroken I just don't even know what to do, it's completely out of our control at this point. I could take all the clomid in the world and it wouldn't do anything. So glad I've been wasting time and money on tests and clomid..... We are seriously considering going after the dr who prescribed the hormone replacement therapy for malpractice. DH works with a few lawyers and they are checking into it for us. But it doesn't change the fact that he is freaking sterile now. We can only wait patiently to see if his sperm will ever come back. The nurse told me she wasn't sure it ever would. I don't know what to do and we haven't told anyone
Else about it so I'm tryin to act like nothing is wrong, it's so hard not being able to talk to people about it, but I feel like no one else in my fam understands what i am going through super depressed about the whole thing....I cannot stop crying

 

[Clomidgirl]

So I'm not taking clomid as there is no point at least right now. I guess if the sperm are going to come back it takes about 3 months MINIMUM... He's been off for one month so I may go back on clomid next cycle or in 2 cycles. Guess it will be a break not
That we wanted one!!! By the way I was having a hard time finding you on facebook! So try looking me up, my name is Danielle Devey Doel

 

[pambolina21]

How ya doing sweetie? Sorry for not responding sooner!!!

I have an update:

My husband had great results: Volume-4.7(mL) Concentration-40M/ml Motility-50% (lower scale of normal)

But the progression is where is gets sloppy....his swimmers are lazy (in a nut shell) So he has to now take folic acid and increase his water intake by ALOT and also stay away from heat...

My test confirmed a blocked tube but since I am not responding to Clomid I am being referred to a specialist...an Endocrinologist...I am calling tomorrow to set up an appt ..praying its not expensive!!!
