Now i'm being told i can't have clomid!

[DaisyDuke]

After being promised that if my tubes are clear following the hsg im having on friday, that i would get clomid. They have now said no cos i ovulate, they cant give it for unexplained infertility till i have been trying 2 years WTF. I know have an appointment with the specilaist himself on the 3rd Dec, so i will have many questions for him. I have been so upset about this, but i don't want to dwell on it anymore, i'm so trying to be postive. I'm thinking of paying privatly for an AMH test to test my eggs? Anyone had this done? X

[DaisyDuke]

The nurse, it all happened 2 days ago, i have been pulling myself out of it every since. She has apologised for promising it, so she has agreed that i didn't imagine her promising it.

[DaisyDuke]

I don't really know what to do anymore, i guess just wait till the 3rd, anyone else feel like all they do it wait?

 

[rachelle1975]

So sorry DD, that is really shitty.

Big

I feel like i'm permanently waiting too - worried i'm starting to become obsessed with babies as don't think i talk about anything else other than that - oh dear!

I reckon speak to the Big Doc on the 3rd - he'll know his stuff and he'll be able to tell you exactly what to do. Fingers crossed it gets sorted

 

[natthecat]

Do you have regular cycles and have tested positive for ovulation? I say this only because if the answer is 'yes' to both of those then Clomid would do you no good and, if anything, would make you feel shit.

They only give it for ovulatory dysfunction and if you don't have that it's not the drug for you. It'd be like a person who does not have asthma taking inhalers.

 

[DaisyDuke]

Yeah but the FS said it would help my cycles and luteal phase defect and just increase our chances.

Hi

I have been given it and I have regular cycles and ovulate. I do feel I have been put on it just because it seems like the first thing to try rather than I need it. I hope you get the answers you need on the 3rd December. Thats the same day appointment I have after being on clomid for 6 months to go on to the next stage.

 

[JASMAK]

Yeah but the FS said it would help my cycles and luteal phase defect and just increase our chances.

That is exactly why I was put on it. And I became PG first round. Yes, I lost the baby, but after a 10 month time period in there of TTC between two m/c, it was BFN after BFN, and then first month-BFP. This time, we are doing Clomid and the progesterone earlier in cycle. I would try and push for the Clomid because it makes a stronger corpus luteum, which produces the hormone progesterone, and thus makes it more likely in a luteal phase defect (which is usally low progesterone) to become pregnant.

Well, I don't know, then. I was under the impression (from my FS) that luteal phase defect is normally treated with progesterone if there is nothing wrong with ovulation...

 

[CareBear]

I agree with CurlySue I've heard that if you o and have unexplained infertility clomid will not actually increase your chances of conceiving as all it does it help follies grow and help boost your own hormones to o

 

[DaisyDuke]

No idea then, that's what she said. She also said progesterone wont improve my lp defect. I'm not hopeful for the 3rd i really have nothing left to give.

 

[Farie]

Oh chick, don't give up hope till the 3rd I'm sure they'll be able to come up with something
And while its not ideal hopefully you'll only get the drugs you need rather than having your body bombarded with different drugs 'just in case' they help?

thinking of you chick

 

[DaisyDuke]

I really don't think so i have kinda been told we will discuss things on the 3rd then ill be sent away for 6 months, that's what she said. That's why i have no hope.

 

[pink_glitter]

Aww DaisyDuke thats real crappy, they shouldnt get your hopes up like that and make false promises!
