I am 22, you probably all know me by now. I've been TTC since last march/05, before that i was with my husband since i was 17 and never used protection and never got pregnant. I always though there's something wrong with me cuz i've never been preg. His sperm was check twice last year and has low motility, my hsg dye test came back clear. I had a u/sound done when i was 18 and came back good. I wonder then why am i not pregnant? I saw my dr. a couple weeks ago and she's suppose to call me to set up IUI's. she wants to do the first 3 month naturally without meds, then if that doesn't work do the next 3 months with clomid. i am anxious to get her call. i'm thinking i should just call her and find out what's going on. I geuss i just need some buddies through all this. anybody going through the same thing?

hi andy, thanks for joining. sorry about your m/c. did they put you on fertility meds to make you ovulate yet or at least suggested it? IUI's- where they wait till your going to Ovulate then take sperm,(my husbands), wash it, take out the best, put a catheder up inside my cervix and push the sperm up there. it guess it gives them a better chance to make it to the egg incase my c/m is hostile or they just can't make the trip. you can read about it up above under medical options. i think it's the intruaterin insemination or something like that.

oh, i just read, the catheder is put up inside your uterus not your cervix. i am really hoping this works for us. everyday more and more women are dropping pregnant, and it makes me upset about why i'm not yet. a lady i work with just found out that her 21 year old is going to make her a grandma here shortly. she just got off drugs and is going to court for check fraud/drug charges, and now she's pregant. and here i do everything by the book for over a year and i can't fall pregnant. i just don't get it anymore.

: ) no... I haven´t had any meds.... Just a sperm exam that was ( according to the doctor very good) since it came out 98% alive 98% mobile ... and an u/s that said that I wasn´t ovulating ... but that was 3 days ago ... I hada blood test done for my FSH , LH and E2 and on CD21 I will have another one of progesterone ... then on june 6 , I have an appt to check those exams and to determine WHAT TO DO NEXT .... :)

it is strange how god works. i heard he doesn't punish you but i feel like i'm being punished. my dr. only took my blood for a rare disease, and that was about a year ago. i forget what it was called. but i don't have. they've never checked my hormone's, although once i start IUI's, they are going to test afterwards to see if i ovulated. i hope your appt. goes good on the sixth. i left an appt with my dr. yesterday to call me to set up these IUI's soon so we don't miss this month, but she hasn't called me back yet.

thanks mandi, i love that name by the way. is it short for miranda? HAPPY BIRTHDAY. i will be 23 this august. good luck on clomid. i hope these IUI"s help. I hear you have a better chance on clomid cuz there's more eggs to work with in some cases. we'll see how it goes. thanks for your support.

: ) I hope she calls you soon ... (it´s really frustrating to lose a month ) , I know it since I know this month I feel like $%"!(/? since I know I can´t get pregnant ( because of the not ovulatin thing ) so I know its a waste of time ... My apt on will be on CD 22 so I´m hoping my gyn gives me something so that next month I could even try...

andy, march for me was like that. i didn't detect o on time, so i figured i didn't o. i then got frustrated and starting charting my temps. i now know that i did o but two weeks late which made my cycle that month like 45 days. which i'm always 28. so it was bad month for me.

Hey everyone, well i've been trying for the past 7 months but i just recently went to my OB and she prescribe me provera and metformin. But we are waiting to see if all the test results come back negative ( including a PG test) Havent had my AF since 3/10 then spotted 16 days later. she's just making sure everything is okay with me before she puts me on the meds. i hope it happens soon,

pm, sounds like u could be pregnant. wouldn't that be awsome?! are those fertility meds to get you Ovulating? the only one my dr. ever talked about is chlomid. but since i O on my own, she doesn't want to take any the first three months of IUI's. thanks for joining. let's keep the support coming in.

welcome pm ¡! ¡! ...I really hope you are pregnant !!!!!!! I don´t know if O late is what is hapening to me or if I´m not O at all... I had an u/s CD14 and no sign of O ... Yesterday (CD16) i took an O monitor an nagative ... I really don´t know if this month won´t be a 28 day period ( which I am normally ) ...

andy, you should start charting temps every morning before you get out of bed. it might help to pin point when o happened. my dr. said that this method isn't reliable but i think she is wrong because so far it has worked for me. and lots of women on these threads use this method. might help....
