Question frustrated

Hi I am currently waiting to see a fertility specialist appox wait 2 months I have been through a laporoscopy and hysteroscopy 6 years ago and they could not find anything. So needless to say labeled as unexplained fertility. I have recently taken drastic measures and ordered the online fertility drug called ovulex, last i knew i was ovulating and am regular with my periods. Can anyone tell me if they have tried this drug? any feedback would be helpful. I guess i am at my wits end do not know where to turn to next. My husband has been checked and his sperm count is still fine, I did quit smoking and my husband too being as though research has stated that smoking really effects the body when trying to get pregnant.I often wondered though if perhaps I ever was pregnant in all these years but It was so early in the cycle that by the time my period came around i had already lost it. Anyone ever heard of this happening?

From what I understand Ovulex is just herbs and vitamens- and in my own experience natural doesn't always mean better. Some natural remedies can actually do more harm than good- and it's best to talk with a doctor first.

I went on a stint where I was going to naturally medicate myself- without the help of a trained professional. I didn't get my period for months and my entire system was out of whack! I would try to wait till my appt- because you may end up being put on hiatus if the natural drugs throw your system out of whack like it did mine.

Red face You are not alone

Absolutely. Infertitlity treatments are full of heartbreaks. I am an OB/GYN, and I just wrote a book for women just like you, and just like me. There is no way not to feel alone and like the most incompetent person in the world. I have tried to capture the humor in the whole process to make the emotional side more predictable. Most fertility patients know everything there is to know about the facts, but are blindsided by the emotions. You can read the first page on www.ticktock.ws. I think reading the whole book will really help you.
