NEVER been so hurt, angry and let down before... after 7 months with the FS they will NOT help me at all because I dont have PSOS - WTF???
they say of my blood tests (each month) 1 showed mild ovulation so I count as 'unexplained' fertility and they will refer me for IVF (which I dont qualify for and cant afford) but they wont even try Clomid because apparently it is ONLY used for PSOS and not for people with week, damaged or irregular ovulation - fucking bollox
well since im a medical scientist and I know my body, understand my test, know the doctor is talking bollox and am more the qualified/knowledgeable to monitor myself and have access to all the equipment needed in the lab (just cant prescribe) anyone know any Canadian websites where I can buy Clomid?
pretty much a year wasted (as they wont even consider a second opinion for another 3 months making it 11 and a half months ive been under their 'care')
also insult to injury... 5 yes 5 fucking people have announced their pregnancy on facebook in the last 2 fucking days and 3 have just had babies and 1 is moaning constantly about a miscarriage despite the fact she drinks, smokes, got tattooed and took nothing seriously (of a baby she threatened to 'kill' more than 8 times)
Won't they consider IUI for you? I'm pretty sure the NICE guidelines say that you should be referred for IUI first in the case of unexplained IF. And they should do the IUI cycle with Clomid and injectables.
Yeah, it sucks they won't prescribe you clomid, but don't go ordering stuff online. You don't know what dosage you need...and if it goes pear-shaped, you should be in a doctors care. Not saying you can't be a better doctor to yourself, just saying you need to take care of yourself. It's discouraging, but there are other options.
Why not try soy isoflavones? Some women take it because it's very much like Clomid, just more natural...And it would give you something to do while you wait for your second opinion...
