Hi girls,
first of all i am new - Hello!!
I have been TTC for 11 months now with no success - no BFPs at all. My cycles have always been irregular since I came of the pill Nov 06. In that time my LP was anything from 9-11 days, cycle was anything from 23-35 days. I started seeing a Chinese Medicine doc and now my LP appears to be about 13 days, my cycles around 26, which is great, but I'm still not pg.
This week I got my 21 day blood test. Results are as follows:
- I am displaying some symptoms of PCOS, althought she didn't say I definitely had it from what I can remember
- My hormones were fluctuating a little that made her think that I wasn't ovulating regularly. This would explain differing cycle lengths (although the last 2 have appeared similar?)
- She wants to put me on 50mg / day of Clomid for the next cycle and the following one (if I don't get pregnant). If that doesn't work (2 cycles on clomid) she will refer me to an FS (Nooo!)
Only thing is, if I'm not ovulating regularly, why do I still get temp peaks O time and EWCM? Chinese medicine lady thought I was ovulating so I am a little confused now?
My blood test results are as follows:
Prolactin 19ug/L
Luteinizing Hormone 10 U/L
Follicle Stimulating Hormone 6 U/L
Oestradiol 1060 pmol/L
Progesterone 63 nmol/L
Tests completed TSH, Progesterone, PRL, E2, LH, FSH
Can anyone interpret this or tell me where it's not normal? Apparently my thyroid came back in the normal ranges. How do you tell from that whether or not you are ovulating or have PCOS?
I feel a bit stressed about getting / not getting pregnant in the next two cycles. I feel like if I don't my chances will decrease again and it will be that much harder - whether that is right or not...
What's the success rate of Clomid in my circumstances - does anyone know?
Thanks girls - I'm a bit confused as to whether this is good news or bad news!
Deb
