Hey Tammara, don’t you just love test results that are vague? Good luck with the wait again, I have my fingers crossed for you. How often does your hubby go away? Have you thought about Insemination? I mean I’m sure you’d totally prefer it get’s done the natural way (lol) but if he’s away lots it might be a plan. My hubby’s last job saw him interstate all the time so we had a little look into it. What exactly are the injections? Sorry if you have already explained this, I’m just interested. Thanks for the info on the lap.
Hey Jess, So I’ve been thinking about you and maybe because you are ovulating well she does not feel the need for the lap. Do you know if you were ovulating prior to going on Clomid? From what I know, with the fallopian test it increases your chances of falling for 3 months because it clears out the tubes. Can you just book yourself in for another one? How did you get it done last time? I know what you mean, sometimes they’re a little intimidating to ask all the questions to, that’s what this site is for I guess. Did she say what you can do about your testosterone being up? My Naturopath has brought mine down before (she counteracted it with estrogens).
I’m glad to hear the shower went well, I’ll let you know how I go, I think I’ll be fine on the day. Having a lap will test for endo but will also check out my fallopian tubes to make sure they’re not blocked.
As for me when I think I’m ovulating, I get quite sharp but quick pains, similar to period pains but I find period pains duller. Hope that helps.
As for me…..I’m just still waiting on me letter from the hospital, if I haven’t got one by Monday I will give them a call to see where it’s at.
Good luck to everyone for this month, it’s time for some good news again.
He usually works away 10 days home 2 so there is very little chance of it just happening. The injections i may go back to are for IUI - intra uterine insemination. I was on them before i had the ovarian drilling but my folicles were just not growing so they said to do the drilling and see what happens.
Im not sure about ovulation pains because ive never noticed any, but a couple of weeks ago i was getting period type pain and it was pretty noticable - not like doubled over pain but enough to take panadol.
re ovulation pain, I never really had ovulation pain before I went on clomid, but I certainly did on clomid! If ovulation is the best time to DTD, I don't know how I could coz it would be very uncomfortable! I had dull pains and slight swelling in my groin, which went away after a day. My temperature also was raised the next day, indicating I had ovulated.
I've been having a quick read and I noticed that there is quite alot of questions re laps. I think the lap procedure is done for a few reasons, and depending on what you need to get done. if its just flushing out the tubes then i think its very quick and easy. I had a sever case of endo. They punctured me in four places. They cleared out all the endo (but it will come back) and a couple of cysts, ovarian drilling and flushed out my tubes. I went into surgery about 12pm and I came to about 6pm. I was off work for 1 week. Was still sore week 2 but that wasnt unbearable.
I got my results for 21 day blood test yesterday. I am so happy with the result even though I dont think i'm pregnant. My progesterone levels have been something like 1-2 (meaning no ovulation) and finally on my third round they are over 30! I finally ovulated.. woo hoo first time in months. My dr told me to wait till next week before I do a test but i had some spotting this morning.
Emily your spotting could be implantation. It is apparently quite common a week or so after ovulation, I never had it but know of heaps of people that have. Fingers crossed for you.
Oh Keli - in response before, they thought I had endo cause I was getting bad ovulation pains, but didn't, I had my tubes cleaned out, they were blocked but apparently had "gunk" in them. My ovulation pains were explained by my FS that there are three levels of people with ovulation, people who can't feel it, people who can and people who extremely feel it (me). I wasn't ovulating before clomid so really noticed it when I was. It has continued as I felt movement once successful about 15 weeks.
Fingers crossed girls.

Hey 31Becc, thanks for the info about your lap. Well that sounds like good news to me, I would be so happy if I didn't have endo and it was just my tubes. Hopefully I will get to have the lap soon and then I can find out for sure. How long after you had the lap did you fall?
Emily I suer hope I dont have a lap procedure like yours, 6 hours is crazy. Hope it works for you. When did you have it done?
I'm very interested in the lap info as my FS said if clomid doesn't work this round I have to have a lap. I'm coming up to fertile time so it works this time.
Emily, good to hear you ovulated! Re your lap, did you know you were going to be having so much done when you went to get your lap? Or does the doc only find out what he needs to clean up when he does the procedure? My FS said I'll be right in 4 days after the lap, so hope that is the case.
