Forum: General Infertility

Anybody out there use this clinic/doctor? I've had 2 unsuccessful cycles (1BFN, 1MC) and we're looking for a new place relatively close but less expensive than our current ER. Their website looks great, but that can be deceiving. I'd be going to Rochester office. I did send them an email and they...

I have never had long visits from AF and recently (past 4-6 months or so) they have only been about 12 hours long and blood is very dark. RE and GYN didn't seem concerned. Any ideas on this, or thoughts of what I could do to lengthen blood flow...?

Ok, my other thread has all the background etc. I just wanted to get some fresh eyes and experiences. I am 10 dpo after having shot of GonalF and triggered hCG. I have been having continuous mild cramping. Also, sometimes when I get up from laying or sitting down it almost feel like a muscle...

So I tested today to get a negative. I am so p*****off about it. My body is covered in acne, face, back shoulders, painful cystic ones. I am ashamed to go in public. I have been enduring pain from cramps and can not control my emotions and being overly forgetful. And what is my reward for punishing...

I know this might be a stupid question, but I get a period maybe once a year if that and I was wondering if it is possible to still ovulate but not have a period. thanks in advance

Hi...I'm Brad. 30 y/o. Lots of info here and trying to learn all of the acronyms and resources this place has to offer. Sorry if this is long. My wife-to-be (32) and I have been TTC for two years no luck. She had a child extremely young (pregger at 13...birth at 14). I have none from a prior...

Hello! I'm new to the forum, looking for some insight/advice. I went off BC in Feb 2011 and have not had a period on my own since. I've had 3 on provera over the past 8 months. I was just diagnosed with HA just recently during our first visit with the RE. I'm on my first round of clomid to see if I...

HI there, I have been TTC for 2 years and have PCOS I am just starting my 6th round of Clomid and first time doing an IUI. I take my first injection of Follistim tonight. Is there a "buddy" group for a cycle like mine? Thanks!

Ok, so first of all Baby Dust, and hope for sticky beans for everyone!!! Ok so here goes... this is my 7th IVF, first with the new RE. Retrieval date of Jan 8, transfer of (2) 8 cell embryos on Jan 11, I had a bit of brownish red bleeding on the 22nd and 23rd of January. AF was due on the 23rd...

Has anyone read the book "Making Babies" by Sami David. If so, what did you think? I am debating whether or not to buy it.

So at the age of 19 I was about to get in the shower when I saw something in the mirror, upon looking down I saw a drop of yellowish white fluid on my nipple. I was not, at the time, sexually active. I might have started lactating sooner than that but was not aware. From that time forward and to...

I go for my IUI #2 on Thursday. I'm did Clomid days 3-7 50 mg for my first IUI and it didn't work. Same dose for this one and it took WAY longer for the follies to grow. I was at 15mm (x2) on Sunday so they scheduled the IUI for Thursday. Anyone else on a similar cycle? I get anxious about when to...

I am currently going to try my first IVF with IVFMD. Seeing if anyone else is doing IVF :) Good luck and baby dust!!

Hey you all... I'm Liz and I decided to post here because I have questions that no medical professional can seem to answer. I am 22. I'm not yet married so am not yet trying to conceive but I want to be a mommy more than anything. I almost never get my period and no one can really tell what is...

Hi, I'm curious if anyone is using Dr. Sami David in NYC? After an unhappy initial work-up with a different RE, I have switched to Dr. David and so far am pretty happy. He's really open to exploring NK issues, all immune issues and possible infections and he's conservative in his approaches...

I've been battling ohss now for 2 weeks. This is my second time in the hospital. I had 1 1/2 liters of fluid takin out of my left lung the other day, and a crazy 4 1/2 liters drained out of my stomach yesterday. I can't tell you the relief I felt after it was all out! I'm told that it will most...
