This is all very new to me - just joined Mumsnet, reading lots of posts from amazing people but to be honest I'm trying to work through the jargon.
Thought I would share our story and see what help and advice you might have for us. No children and no pregnancies.
Saw fertility specialists at Countess of Chester back in July 2014, after some initial tests found that the issues weren't as expect with me (age 40) but with my husband (extremely low count with slow mobility). Only option was ICSI.
AMH = 3.14
Oct 2014 - Started on DHEA (3x25mg a day)
Jan 2015 - got agreement for one funded ICSI treatment
24th May - Norethisterone 5mgs x 3 a day
8th June - first scan and scratch ??
10th June - ??Tomorrow?? Start me menopur injections (5 pots across 2 injections)
14th June - Sunday - add Cetrotide injection to the menopur and DHEA
15th June - Monday - 2nd scan planned
18th June - Thursday - 3rd scan planned
24th June - egg collection planned
To support all of this I've been having acupuncture and my husband had one reflexology session ..... Anything to help!!
It's fair to say that I'm hormonal, nervous and scared but equally trying to think positively and be excited about what the future holds.
For now I'm focused on the injections tomorrow morning, mixing them looks easy.... Injecting myself ??!!!!
Any help advice or guidance appreciated x
