New to this Online Support
Hello there,
I just got set up on this tonight and am not sure all the details about how to use it. I guess I was just looking for some support. My husband and I have been trying for over 3 years. We are currently about to attempt another frozen embryo transfer. We have done IVF 2 times and 2 frozen transfers with no luck.
Thanks,
Faith

Hi Jen,
Thanks for your reply. I notice that your bio info says you have hypothyroidism. I do too. Does it have anything to do with infertility? I thought that it didn't, and my doctor didn't think so either, but am curious when I saw it there.
Faith.

Hi Faith,

Welcome to the group!! You must be pretty tech savvy, as you did your first post very well. Any other specific questions, about even forum stuff, we're happy to help.

When I started, I would do "search" (see options across the top) and then type in any words that have to do with questions, or things on your mind.

You're not alone. No matter what you're feeling, you're not alone.

Kathryn

Thanks again! I have learned some interesting things about Hypothyroidism that I plan to ask our nurse about tomorrow. I have my ultrasound tomorrow to determine when (later this week) our frozen embryo transfer will be. So I will ask them about Hypothyroidism in my case - I didn't know there was any connection.
