Didn't think I'd be posting in here

A year off BC. Trying for #3. I'm 30 and hubby is 35.

Had a small case of endo which was operated on, and my cycles are generally regular.

We both take supplements and I take maca. Even all the old wives tales. Drinking green tea, raspberry tea, no coffee, heaps of water, grapefruit juice. Fertility friendly lube.

It didn't take this long with my ex, but now I've had issues so could be the problem. Last cycle then I'm getting good hubby tested.

Sadly, welcome to LTTTC. Hoping you don't have to wait much longer.

Curious, did have the endo widget before or after your first? I had surgery in September and was hoping I'd be pregnant by now.

I had it after my second. I started getting severe pains a couple of years ago and then they finally did a lap a year and a half later. It wasn't too severe thankfully (although the pain felt like it was!!).

I had the op in September too. Heard heaps from people saying they had gotten pregnant soon after, but alas not me!!

Ha ha, glad you figured out my auto correct "widget" meant surgery 😊

If you got pregnant with endo previously, and you are with a new partner now I'd bet you'll find some male factor 😞. Hopefully you don't get to them point of a sperm test!

Lol I speak full mouth talk.

I hope not. He will see it as a closed book if something comes back with him.

Sorry to welcome you to ltttc. I also never thought in a million billion years that I would be here! They can't find anything wrong with us, which makes me wonder if maybe I have asymptomatic endo (I haven't had a lap and likely won't). DH and I are both taking piles of supplements and are just heading down the road to treatment. Its all pretty overwhelming.

I haven't heard of that before. Do they just not want to go in there? Or do you not want too?

It wasn't too bad the surgery. I just found it extremely tiring for the next week. I went to work the next day which was soooo silly, but we needed the $$ at the time.

 

[BelleNuit]

I'd have to pay for the surgery myself so I don't really see the point in spending $$ on an exploratory surgery when I could spend those same $$ on an IUI instead.

 

[Gypsy99]

Oh wow. I was on the public list and had to wait 1.5 years but at least got it for free.

Good luck with your iui
