    Smile hi

    Hello moggycat,

    I also have pcos and i have unexplained infertility. Im just starting out on here but similar to you have been ttc for around four years now. i had one pregnancy on clomid and metformin but miscarried at 12 weeks
    i just had my first scan after a few more bumps in the road a couple of days ago at mivf but unfortunetly things were not quite right again so im now waiting on another scan next week to see what has happened this week after increasing my synarel dosage. Hope you find some great threads in here and i wish you all the best on your journey. goodluck

    Hi

    Just wanted to say hi. I have just joined aswell, but as yet i don't know what my issues are. I go for a laparoscopy and hysteroscopy tomorrow.

    Would like to start posting, but just seems hard to just jump in when so many people seem to have connections already

    Hi Kez 19

    This is my first ever post on one of these sites. We all need to start somewhere don't we!

    I read your post & thought maybe we could exchange 'notes' and get input from others. I had lap & hysteroscopy done in May last year after TTC for about 7 years. They discovered that my tubes were blocked - hydrosalpinx. My FS has suggested now that I have both tubes removed, which is scheduled for April, then try IVF. I must admit that I was not all fussed after the first lap on ever having it done again, but I guess time heals doesn't it... I also have dwindling egg supplies due to my age (37) so that will be the next bridge to cross!

    How do you feel after your procedure?

    Hi girls
    I know it can be a bit daunting at first, but newcomers are always warmly welcomed. The best thing is to just dive in and introduce yourself in the threads - before long you'll have your own connections.
    Why not start with our LT TTC & AC chatter thread here.
    Anyone who has been trying to conceive long-term, or who is undergoing (or considering) assisted conception is welcome to join in.
    All the best~

    Hi Pearl Girl,
    Yeah, it'd be great to share some notes with someone.

    I was quite freaked out about going for the lap & hyst as i've never been in hospital before and my husband was away in Melbourne for the whole week. After fasting from 7 am, admitting at 12, then not going in till 5 pm, my experience wasn't that bad. My pain waking from the anasethetic was about a 5/10 and they gave me some morphine. But i had no cramping, bleeding was pretty much non-existent and very minimal shoulder tip pain. The stomach is quite tender getting in and out of bed and chairs, but i was quite stocked with my experience considering what some other women experience and the possible side effects / complications.
    However, i don't go back to my doctor until the 12th to hear the results. I also had hydrotubation and an endometrial biopsy, so hopefully they will have an idea of what's going on. I'm only just starting to realise how awful it can all be by reading some of the posts about what women go through to try and be mothers.

    I'm 31 this year and we've been trying (well off contraceptives) for about the last 4 & 1/2 years. I can't imagine what the extra pressure is like being 37 (there's enough being 30)? Good to talk to you and hope we can keep track. Please fill me in more on your experiences.
    Kez..

    Red face supseptate uterus

    Hi there,

    been TTC for three years now, had a few early misscarriges . . . found out from scans I had a supseptate uterus. Went for the lap and dye test last friday, my experince is not too good ! pain and bleeding Good news is my septum was removed and tubes and overies look fine

    i am planning to keep updating on my progress of TTC, there does not seem to be much online about success after procedures ! just pains of the before.

    Going to get my stiches out later on, keep you updated ! hope your journey is going well ? xxxx
