I had no idea i had fertility problems. After 3 yrs ttc, dh decided to check if he had a problem. We found out he had low count/low motility, diagnosed with varicocelle. When we moved to Toronto, he started to look for treatment, and we decided to check a fertility clinic looking for a urologist for him. The fertility dr. put him in a waiting list for surgery, but also prescribed me a list of tests.
First ultrasound showed PCOS, quite mild but he put me on metformin and sent me to hsg. Hsg showed scar tissue in my tubes, slight blockage in one tube, total blockage on the other one. Btw, the hsg was the worst pain i've ever had!
Next, i was sent to laparoscopy. That was just a week ago... It just so happened that one of my tubes was already opened, 100%, but it was misdiagnosed in the hsg due to muscle contractions. Anyway, everything was cleared and we are ready to the next step.
Because dh's boys will take about 3 months to (maybe) increase the count and quality, we will be trying a iui on my next cycle.
