Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm in need of some advice or just someone to talk to and to listen to me. I'm not one to talk about my problems or feelings very well, so I apologize if this all sounds a bit garbled
I guess I'd better start from the beginning. I have been with my husband for nearly 12 years and been married for nearly 2 years. We have never used any contraceptives since we've been together and yet we can't seem to fall pregnant. Well we did fall pregnant 8 years ago and lost the baby in the very early stages, as it was an incomplete miscarriage we had to go back to the hospital every 2 weeks until it was all over, during one of the appointments when I had an internal ultrasound scan and there was a cyst on my left ovary but the next time I went back to the hospital again the cyst had disappeared.
Well since then we haven't been able to conceive. and finally about 6 months ago I went to see my GP who sent me for blood tests and a vaginal swab and an ultrasound. Well all my tests came back fine except my blood tests which showed my testosterone levels are slightly low and the GP also sent my husband for a semen analysis which after a few false starts we finally managed to sort that out and he's sperm count came back a bit low as well. Also I saw the GP because I can't have sex as as soon a my husband tried to enter me it hurts.
And now we have been referred to a gynecologist for infertility and my husband has also been referred to a Urologist, well my first gynecologist appointment is in 2 weeks and I don't know what will happen or what the will ask.
