Hi everyone
TTC DC2. We were really lucky with DS and conceived first cycle. This time round not so lucky and just started cycle 9. I'm 36. I have mild endo diagnosed in 2005.
I have a first GP appointment in the morning... what should I expect?

Not a lot...

Bloods on cd 2-5 of your cycle for lutenising hormone, follicle stimulating hormone and maybe some other hormones. Different bloods for 7 days after ovulation to test your progesterone level. They might arrange for a scan. Oh and they will tell you to have your dh arrange a sperm analysis through his gp as well.

They also may tell you to keep trying and do nothing (that was always my experience).

Thanks. I guess if I go expecting not very much I can't be disappointed if they say go away! (But probably still will be!)

Hi @Pambo81 sorry to hear you've been having problems too.
My GP was really good... she has booked me in for some blood tests and told me to get DH to have a sperm analysis.
I've waited 6 weeks to see her as she specialises in women's health... don't know if you have anyone like that?
