UNEXPLAINED INFERTILITY SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Modern Science can make artificial limbs for Pete's sake, but they can't figure out why I can't have a BABY???

AAARRRRGGG.

OK, I am done.

oh jeez girl i know what you mean...they can't tell you why but they can give you drugs can't they lol...good luck

Just wish I knew they were the right drugs.

I think I want to do a post-coital. Convinced it is a CM issue. But that's because that's all that's left.

I totally am with you here. I make eggs, I ovulate, my husband has super sperm and yet month after month we get bfn...I don't get it and if they could just tell me why I would be able to deal with this so much better.

[dylansmommy]

i wonder how much of this could come from environmental and other outside influences...the hormones in your food and milk the pesticides in your fruit and vegetables...the additives they put in plastics like bpa and pthalates...i've seen studies that say about milk and the hormones found in some of it can affect reproductive health and that bpa is an endocrine blocker and that definitely affects fertility....beginning to wonder ....

I have switched to some organic stuff...especially milk. I have a hard time giving up my water bottles, but I guess that is next. Why is this so darn difficult for us and so darn easy for other people???!!

I am here as well and I totally hear you! It's the most frustrating thing EVER! I've gotten many things ruled out, but it's still unknown. And my doctor isn't even hopeful about IVF, though I'd like to be. He does feel it will work but it just may take more time. It's just not fair to have to keep waiting and waiting and failing. I am so sorry.

I was in your unexplained infertility group before January. I switched REs, had more blood tests (all normal) and a repeat fluid u/s. It was that fluid u/s that gave us the answer (even though I had 2 of those previously). I had a large uterine polyp. The following day, I had a hysteroscopy the following day and not only did I have that one polyp, but one side of my uterus was covered in small polyps that couldn't be seen on u/s. My RE didn't think that would be the cause of my lack of getting pregnant, he thought polyps would just keep me from staying pregnant. But everyone I've spoken to about polyps since then have said that they've gotten preg immediately after their polyps were removed. I went through with IVF anyway and now expecting a little girl.

It's so frustrating to not know why. Hopefully everyone in this category will get an answer and a little bundle of joy. My suggestion if you don't feel like you are getting the answers you want, try another Dr. I know I didn't have all the blood tests with the first RE and some REs have different medications protocols that might work better for you. Hopefully your explanation is as easy to fix as mine was.

Hi Michelle! Congrats on your !! Looks like you're in the home stretch.

I actually had a polyp removed in December of 2008. All attempts since then have resulted in , so I do not think that is the reason for me.
