Hello ladies
This is my first time of posting although I have been reading your stories for many months. I want to share with you my story to give you all hope. I am 41, and have been TTC for 18 months with new partner. I already have 3 children from my previous relationship. General tests by GP showed no real reasons for infertility. Tests (done privately and hugely expensive) 4 months ago showed my FSH levels as 49, the other hormone levels, all also out of normal ranges. I was told by a Consultant Gynaecologist that my ovaries had stopped working and I was well into the menopause.
The shock absolutely destroyed me and I returned to my GP who said that stress and anxiety about falling pregnant may have put my body into temporary menopause. I tried hypnotherapy to help me stop thinking about where I was in my cycle. I am delighted to report that am now approx 8 weeks pregnant. I say approximately because the hypnotherapy made me forget exactly where I was in my cycle so it is difficult to calculate dates!!
I have read that stress and anxiety is one of the biggest factors affecting fertility.
I hope this gives some of you hope and I thoroughly recommend the hypnotherapy.
Good Luck everyone x
