DH and I have been TTC # 2 for 12 months now, I am 35 and DH is 38. My cycles have been pretty regular ranging from 28 to one of 35 days. I had blood tests done incl the progesterone surge on CD21 and get the results back on Wed.
Today I had a pelvic u/s to check for cysts and to make sure everything is okay but it isn't. Turns out my ovaries are not doing much and I didn't O this month. There are no pollups or cysts so that is good. I have been in denial that there could be anything wrong and even told the Dr/Songographer that I haven't been charting so I think it is just timing that is wrong. The look in her eyes said it all "yeah right, then why are you here?". I was told that if I lose 5kg, that would probably do it. I am about 20kgs overweight and started the CSIRO diet last week with results already. DH said that it is good that I am not O because my eggs are being saved. I have 3 cousins with early menopause and I am really starting to get worried.
So I am shattered that there is a problem but only have myself to blame with my weight. Do you think they will start me on fertility treatment now or weight to see what happens when I lose weight? We really wanted our kids close together but we are so grateful we have Amy and I know we are very lucky. DH is freaking out of even the thought of fertility drugs which have a chance of ending in multiples...but I'm sure he would get used to it
