Just wanted to say hi, I'm new to this sort of thing, I'm basically here to talk to others who might be in the same boat as me. I conceived my first son naturally first go after 1 month of trying at the age of 36yrs. I've now been ttc for a little over a year now (including charting) with no success. I've tried accupuncture, herbs, shiatsu, but all along I thought something else was amiss. My doctor was reluctant to do any testing which was frustrating for me, he just wanted to stick needles in me (accupuncture). I pressured him into doing a thyroid and progesterone test. When I went to see him all I got was more accupuncture, so I said, "So what were the results of my test"? He just said that they were fine! Can you beleive that, no details, no nothing.

So After getting another period, I flipped out and saw another doctor, who immediately gave me a referal to a fertility specialist. I felt so releived that I was doing something positive, as I'm not getting any younger, I turn 39 later this year.

I've had a progesterone test done on day 21, which showed a very low count of just under 10. I am now on my second day of my first cycle of clomid. I feel spaced out, and have to wee a lot. But I feel like I'm heading in the right direction. Ultimately no matter how much input we have, it's still the lottery as to what happens, we just have to give it our best shot.!
