My Journey
July 09, 2008
Married - Aug 2006
TTC - Since Aug 2006
Finally decided to explore infertility issues in Dec 2007.
May 2007 - 1st appt with RE.
Me - Blood work, HSG - great results
DH - Full SA - great results
I've always had normal 28 day cycles and assumed I ovulated as I get ovary pains and CM. Dr. confirmed I do ovulate.
July 2008 - Diagnosed as 'Unexplained Infertility'
Currently - trying to figure out what to do next

ok, I don't know if you saw my last post but, I have had very little spotting. I am used to very heavy bleeding, and being in a lot of pain! We haven't had sex since my HSG so I know I'm not preggo, so now I'm just wondering if my cycle is off this month and is that going to put me back another month with ovulation????? I'm confused, and feeling impatient!!!! lol
Hi!!! I feel your pain!! I'm in the same situation as you. I've been married since june of 04 and have been trying to concieve sine Jan of 07. Unexplained fertility as well. Husband got tested in march and everything ok. Hormones checked-good!! Ovulate on my own, day 12 of every cycle, cycle 29-30days long.(never missed a period in my life). Had post coil test-good! Had pelvic ultra sound-good!! and just this month had HSG test- tubes nice and clear!! I'm hoping this will be the month. I'm wondering if stress has a lot to do with not getting pregnant. I'm a nurse and am very stressed almost everyday. Trying to find a new job in the same field that is less stressful. Do you find your job to be stressful??? Best of luck!!! Baby Dust!!!!!!!
Hey jules! Hopefully this IS your month & mine too! We are just putting all faith in the Lord and that my tubes just needed a little dusting and cleaning ;) My job is EXTREMELY stressful! I work for a company that does vocational training with mentally disabled adults. I am also wondering if the stress and physical management of my job is causing a damper on our fertility. Good point Jules and I wish the best of luck to you and your husband too!!!!!
Hi All, I thought I would post an update as it has been awhile. DH results came back from the SFA and all is good with him. The doctor says we are both fine (as far as she can tell without doing the laproscopic procedure) and she doesn't want to do that as it may create more scar tissue. She really wants us to go straight to IVF, without trying anything else first, which I don't agree with. So I convinced her to let me try Chlomid for a few months although I ovulate normally on my own. So I started days 3-7 this month with 100mg. Today is CD 12 so we are BDing like crazy :) I hope the Chlomid gives me that 'boost' I need, but after 3 months of Chlomid, we will go straight to IVF. Let me know what you think! Thanks.
