Yeast should have little to no impact on fertility...You would count the first month as the first attempt you BD to ttc...
When 2 start counting after a reversal?
April 04, 2008
Dr Q.. I had my reversal in Oct and the fertility doc told me to wait a month be4 I started TTC. So do I count from Nov? Nov to Dec would be one month. Or do I start counting from the day after the reversal? I am wondering b/c I want to try the HSG to see if my tubes are block but I have to wait 6 months be4 fertility doc will do anything. Thanks so much!
Angelfish.. I am doing the same thing as u. I am nto counting cd or dpo. I am not using the OPK's this month either. I am going to get the dye ran in my tubes next month to see if they are open if I dont fall preggo this month. I jsut want to make sure that they are open. GL with TTC this month and I hope that everything works out for u too. Keeping u in my prayers and u keep me posted.
Tina.. my doc said for me to wait 6 months be4 I get check to see if they were still open. I had it done it Oct so I guess I will start counting in Nov. I assume that is right. I think that next month will be 6 months. Angelfish, I am still TTC but not thinking or chating anything. Is that what ur doing?
Tina, I dont have to wait 6 month to start tring. I have to wait 6 months to go back so he can check to see if my tubes are still open. LOL! I had 5 cm on one side and I think 7 on the other. Doc gave me a 60 to 70 % of conceiving but I am starting to wonder know that it has almost been 6 months and 5 months of TTC.
Tina, my doc gave me a 80 to 90 % chance of getting preggo the 1st three months after the reversal then it went too 60 to 70 % after that. I am hoping that everything is good inside me since i have not had anything since my chemical in Dec. Just to let u know.. progesterone can give u the same signs as beign preggo. I hate the progesterone be4 AF even though u get it when ur preggo too but it can make u think that ur preggo and ur not. I am good. Just waiting to see if this was our month or not. How r u doing? I still have some discomfort where my scar is too. I think that it is normal tho.
Tina I know it is hard...we expect things to happen so fast but our bodies don't work like that. That is what we were hoping for ourselves a year ago and still nothing after 2 chemicals. But getting on this site and doing research and going to the dr we have a male factor. Plus my age is not helping us at all. We have gone to another dr and getting some hope and have an appt on May 15th with a dr's that specialists in testicles.
What I would do is talk with you dr and see if the tubes are ok. You have a good % but if looks like you are just in the first mth of ttc...tell me if I'm wrong. Plus get another opinion in your situation...it's your body.
Now with a healthy couple with no issues under 35 have a 20% to 25% chance to get preggo. The experts do say if under 35 give it a year without any success you need to see a dr and over 35 give it 6mths with no success. But your situation is different.
I'm over 35 and not on meds and we have sperm issues. I would speak to you dr about that pain you are having and getting some meds to help you with egg production (clomid or Letrozole (Femara)or even Injectable Gonadotropins). Plus when was your dh sperm check? Because his sperm levels can change every day and every mth. If it is over 10 mil you can do a IUI which could help increase you chances of pregnancy . Maybe get the dh on a mult-vitamin and you too (don't forget the folic acid). Now it will take at least 3 mths to get the vitamins to get into your systems. Acupuncture can help also...look into that!!!

I am sorry to hear that Tina. Just make sure that the HCG level is back to normal be u test again this month. Sometimes the pregnancy chemical can take awhile to get out of ur system. I hope that this month works out for u. Try the every other night thing and see if that works for u. I would ask DH to slow down on the drinking as it can damage the spermies. Good Luck to u hun.
Tina,
You can ovulate anytime during the mth that is very normal. Did you test last mth (OPK)? If you did when did you get your +OPK because you normally ovulate within 12 to 36 hrs after a +OPK.
I would say yes the dh needs to cut out drinking until you get preggo because it can hurt his sperm. How much is he drinking? It does take up to 3 mths for new sperm. So what were his results of the last Sperm test. Because his counts can and do go up and down daily and monthly. Get him on multi-vitamins and working out for the both of you!!!!
Yes there are risk the older you get with preggo and your chances of getting and staying preggo decrease. That is why I suggested for you to speak with your dr about fertility meds. I will be going on them myself after my dh's situation is sorted. It is not impossible but it will help your eggs to be stronger.
Do you know if it was a miscarriage last month? If you didn't take a hpt or beta and it was BFN you probable were not preggo:((((....like I said before your changes being a healthy couple under 35 years old is 20% to 25% every cycle even with perfect timing. being in the age that you and I are those numbers do decrease. I don't mean to alarm you I just want you to be aware of that.
The things you were feeling is progesterone and many woman think that we are preggo but progesterone does mimic preggo signs but without a +HPT or +beta and you got your period the chances that you were preggo this past mth was slim.
Keep up the fight Tina and visit your dr or just ring him and request the meds...it will help you. Sending you loads of ***babydust***
