Red face New to Forum

Hi guys,
I am new to this and really just looking for some support on this journey of TTC. My husband (30 years old) and I (25 years old) started trying to concieve a year ago. I have had two miscarriages and I have recently been diagnosed with PCOS. I was put on Metformin, Femera, and a week ago my husband injected me with my first Ovidrel shot. I got my progesterone levels today and they were at a 19 (which I guess is ok considering I was at a 6 on a cycle without these meds) I am praying I will be pregnant soon and hope you all will be as well. All of this can be overwhealming! to you all!

This forum is a great place to get support and hear from other women going through the same thing. Just knowing you're not alone in this is immensely comforting!

Good luck to you!

Failed First Cycle

Well I got a yesterday, I am a little down. Tomorrow I go in for my next ultrasound to see if I can start my second round of Femara/Ovidrel. Thanks for welcoming me, I am excited to have somewhere I can talk about these cycles as they happen. Here's hoping we will all be soon!

Hey I am new as well and my DH and I have also been TTC for about a year now. I am glad there are ppl to go through this with because everybody I am close to can get pregnant so easily.... it really gets me down. (In my previous relationship we were TTC for 5 years) SO... anyway. I am here with you!

I have PCOS too so I know how frustrating it can be. It seems all my friends have already gotten pregnant as well and without a problem. I am happy for them but a little jealous as well. Good luck and keep me updated on your progress.

Hi! I'm so glad that there are some other people going through the same stuff. What kind of treatment plan are you on right now?

Well soo far I am just on metformin.... we have been trying for a year...we arent actually getting married until september 12... but we know we want kids and I knew I would have trouble because of trying before in another relationship.... so we didnt want to NOT try....After the wedding we are going to be more aggressive about testing/treatment. My doctor wants to put me on clomid next... but we want to get my "DH" tested before I am put on that.

I feel more comfy...

Whenever I come on here and I hear from you guys, it really reassures me that there is still good in people. TTC is not easy at all and like Channy said, everybody Im close seems to have no prob getting preggers. Oh well I know that God will never put more on me that I can bear, so Im persevering, isnt that what we're all doing? RE said my HSG, bloodwork and vag ultrasound were fine, 18 follicles on each ovary and a small fibroid that he's not worried about but wants a saline ultrasound to get a petter look at. We're going to take an injection class and the ultrasound on Day 3 and start our first clomid cycle in September. Thanks for u guys being honest cos it really helps me deal with this. Praying for you all everyday.:grouphug:
