‘Unexplained’ infertility yet our test results are great. Going for IVF but else can I investigate?

[Decaffe]

Briefly, for whatever reason, I can’t get pregnant.

The plusses
My day 3 and 21 bloods are fine.
My HSG was clear and my tubes are ‘perfect.’
My antral follicle count is good for my age.
My womb appears healthy with good blood flow.
By taking ubiquinol I now regularly ovulate on cd12-13
DH’s most recent sperm tests were phenomenal (after I gave him lots of supplements to get his morphology up).

The possible minuses
I have a small dermoid cyst on one ovary but apparently it would cause more damage to take it out.
I am approaching 40.
Although I have a 15 day luteal phase, sometimes I can start spotting from 10dpo.

We are commencing IVF soon but I am convinced that it won’t work. Something is clearly wrong.

I have never had a conversation with an NHS consultant. A nurse simply reviewed the tests then referred us for IVF.

The IVF consultant was lovely but our meeting was, understandably, all about the IVF process and not about what’s wrong with us.

I want someone to tell me what’s wrong and what we can do about it.

There must be something, they simply haven’t found it yet.

Any ideas please?

Do ask your consultant or gp whoever you see, about progesterone suppositories now you are pregnant if they haven't got you on them already.

That is such good news @Decaffe
Congratulations!!

That's a great update. I posted on the early days of this thread and have always had a question in my mind as to whether endo was the cause of our fertility woes. I'm glad you got answers and a bfp to boot.

@Decaffe & @longingtobe23 massive congratulations to you both, that is fantastic news.

@TheTigerWhoCameToEatMyHusband i haven’t seen anybody yet they won’t see my until past 6 weeks for a scan 🥲
