very sorry about your auntie dear! ((hugs)) to you

MunnzieB · 05/11/2004 22:46

np, well the Dr must know what he's doing. are you able to get a second opinion at all? or have you asked him if there's any other avenues you can explore? try writing down a list of questions you want to ask him and take it on your next app.

SHELY · 05/11/2004 22:54

my next appt. is when he wants to start this clomid, and soon after at ovulation time, he wants to jump right into the insemination. i don't know if i can talk to another doctor before this, i feel like trusting his credentials, but there is so much iam reading about it, that scares me to death!!

MunnzieB · 05/11/2004 23:00

best think i think to do would be to talk to him and of course DH about all of your fears, after all if you're feling it then DH must be feeling at least some of it, after all. then take things from tehre. you know your body,a dn it's no good every one else being sure about something if your not 100% on board with the clomid idea. So talk every thing thru before you commit, (obviously not putting pressure on here but don't think too long as i'm sure all parties will be eager to start the ball rolling)

SHELY · 05/11/2004 23:02

(this is a paragraph that got me worried from a website, on clomid useage)

(One final note on clomiphene ? As I mentioned earlier, it?s generally not a true fertility drug. There are clear indications for it, and if you?re a clomiphene ?candidate? it works quite well. But, if you don?t ?need? this medicine, then it can potentially work against you by preventing you from getting pregnant or causing a miscarriage. If you don?t ?need? clomiphene , it can potentially ?throw a wrench into your works? by interfering with your pituitary hormones, creating poor cervical mucus, thinning out your uterine lining, and creating an environment that?s not conducive to getting or staying pregnant. So, who should not take clomiphene? If you fulfill the following criteria, then you may want to question whether you should be taking this medicine:

Regular menstrual cycles every 26-32 days

Documented or presumed monthly ovulation

Normal peak progesterone blood level seven days after ovulation

Normal luteal phase length

In-phase (normal) endometrial biopsy in the late luteal phase

(if anybody has taken it or knows anything, please advise!! thanks! time for dinner! take care munnzieb w/b when you can!!

MunnzieB · 05/11/2004 23:04

n/p, having not been on it wouldn't know what to say, only logically y would the dr advise it if it wasn't suitable? (lost) take it to him and show him. Take care hon, let me know how you get on. going for some shut eye. Tea, what time is it where u r?

Morning all. Just woke up from a dream in which I got my period, and that always means I am about to get my period. So feeling VERY RATTY . It's definitely a day for chocolate - have just had some with my breakfast!

Shely, I don't know about Clomid, but I can't see how IUI can cause multiple births. IVF does because they usually put in more than one fertilised egg, to up the chances of conception. With insemination, it's just the one egg like you would get if you were doing it the 'normal' way.

Tania2 · 06/11/2004 11:08

Sorry girls just watched Shreak 2 with ds and dh. wont chat long thou as i really need to have an early night if i am to be up a 6am for a shopping tour.
