    Thought I'd add some extra support. Very similar situation for me too but with an under active thyroid to boot. I've got my first FS appointment in a bit over a week but not sure if they'll do anything until my thyroid is completely sorted out. Best of luck.

    thanks ladies...

    mog - you should join our TTC 1-6months thread. lots of friendly ladies in there with lots of support. its all TTC discussions and you will learn alot, and be able to get alot of questions answered. hope you dont have PCOS but if you have long cycles like I do there is prob a good chance you do. but dont worry, ladies with PCOS can still conceive naturally providing you dont have any other fertility problems.
    i look forward to seeing the FS, will let you know how i get on.

    k4t - thanks for your post also. hope your FS appointment goes well. i'm interested to hear how you get on...
    i dont think i have any other problems, nothing obvious i suppose, but who knows.... fx anyway. hope it goes well for you

    Does anyone else know much about PCOS and clomid? Do you think that is what i'll get given straight away or will i get a bunch of tests done?????? thanks.

    It might be clomid in addition to metformin if you have PCOS. You might also get a hcg trigger to ensure ovulation. Has DH had a sperm test? You can expect that as well. Best of luck.

    DH hasn't had a SA but i expect that. i've only had one u/s a few months back, and one blood test which tested pretty much everything they could think of. would they do another u/s or blood test do you think?

    when you're on clomid do you have to go in for blood tests or u/s during you cycle??

    i'm so excited to be finally getting some help. seriously look at my chart, its effing rediculous!! ha!
