Hi all,
Some of you might have seen me from a different PCOS related thread. Current info: 28 years old, TTC #1 with husband since november 2016 (so 2yrs 5mo approx), I've never been pregnant once, not so much as a sniff of a second line on a test. I have PCOS, normal tubes (seen on laparoscopy as an HSG attempt ended in tears!), am overweight (BMI about 29 at present, was 32 when started so I'm counting that as a win, but still trying to lose weight). Had 7 cycles of clomid, first couple were 50mg with limited results, increased up to 100mg but got loads of cysts so had to decrease down again. Mixed results, some months good follicles, some months nothing, did regulate cycles a bit but alas no pregnancy.
Have been NHS up to now, but have decided to bite the bullet and go privately. First appt 3rd may. Not sure what to expect next. Wondering what people's next steps were after clomid? Injections? IVF? Joining a convent? (joking- mostly- although at this point I've had more sex than I ever wanted to in my whole life!!!)
Also, can I just vent and say how completely rubbish this whole situation is. Infertility is never something I thought I'd be faced with in life- both my mum and MIL got pregnant just from winking at their husbands, if all accounts to be believed. Some friends are now pregnant with their second in the time I've been trying for one. I know a lot of you ladies have been trying a lot longer than me, and I just want to say, kudos to you.
Anyone who has any info re: next steps for clomid, or just fancies a whinge, I'd be delighted to hear from you! :)
