Hi All...
I have been ttc number 2 for over 2 years now. I will be 35 this year. I conceived number 1 naturally. I also conceived one prior to number 1 and miscarried at 5.5 weeks. In November of 2011 I was diagnosed with premature ovarian failure. The RE was giving me clomid and a trigger shot. I did end up pregnant in Feb of 2012 and miscarried at 8 weeks. We took some time off and started again in Nov 2012. In January we changed to Femara and the trigger shot with progersterine after the trigger shot. I am now growing decent size eggs and ovulating but the RE is just now worried about my lining. Two months ago it was 6 and this last month 5.6 and they like to see 8. So this month we are doing nothing but estrogen to try and thicken it up. I started on an estrogen patch today, changing every other day. At night I have to take estrogen vaginally. I will also go for an u/s on day 13 to see if it is working. After I have the u/s I will start progesterone. (I have to have the progersterine to induce a period, I dont start on my own) I am also taking a small buffet of vitamins daily: prenatal, folic acid, vit c, vit e, L arganine 2 times per day, co q 10 3 times per day, fish oil, vit b 6 and 12 and pycogenol (sp?) and baby aspirin.
My question is this...if this works to thicken my lining and then I have a period and start all over on femera etc how is it going to help? Won't I shed all the thickness? My RE is not doing any fertiltiy meds this month, just the estrogen.
Anyone else out there with the POF?
