Hi Everyone,
I have been stalking this website for a few months now and I have learned so much from all of you. Think it's time I share my story. I have never really shared this with anyone as I was embarrased, and I kept pretending things were okay. So here goes:
I have been married for 5 and a half years. My husband keeps very long work hours so he was always exhausted and tired coming home from work. I would notice that when we did have sex, he was not ejaculating inside me. I couldn't understand because he was able to do it outside of me. Finally we went to a doctor and he mentioned my husband's veins were enlarged and he had a varicocele and so he did a varicocelectomy. Still till today, it is very very very rare that he is able to ejactulate inside of me. But at least he doesnt feel any discomfort as he did have before the surgery.
Now you can imagine how tiring and frustrating this is for both of us, especially wanting to have a baby. I have tried almost a year and a half to try and have a healthy sex life but him not being able to finish inside me has it made it so difficult for us both. I try not to pressure him, but I am 31 (almost 32) and he's already 33. I went for a full check up recently...While waiting for him to sort out his issues, I have developed PCOS. My left ovary is a lazy ovary and my right one is polycystic...eggs are way too small and are not of right size. So now we both have some sort of problem with trying to conceive
I have been on 150mg of clomid on day 2 - day 6 of my cycle since April. This July would make it 3 months. My husband and I have been doing at home insem (he ejaculates in the cup, and we insert it using a syringe) - have tried for two cycles and no luck. July will be our 3rd time trying. To be honest, I am not even convinced myself that at home insem will work, as I now too have PCOS.
On Thursday will be day 9 of my 3rd cycle and my doc is scheduling me for the fallopian tube dye blockage test, she said we should do this so we can remove it from our list to know if there are any further problems. I am so nervous about this and hope I hear that my tubes are not blocked.
I really would love to get pregnant but the stress or enjoyment of sex is so hard especially when my husband is not able to successfully ejaculate inside me and then the added pressure of being polycystic is really getting me down.
Just hoping that all the stars align for me soon and I manage to conceive.
Just needed to share it with someone because I think I'm about to go crazy soon!
