So...not even really sure where to begin. I have one DD aged 3 and we are 15 months into dealing with secondary infertility (MFI discovered through sperm analysis). Investigations on my side have been vague so far. Only LH, FSH and oestradiol tested and told they were normal. Referred for an internal scan in October but still no appointment- guessing because I'm in London and NHS waiting times ridiculous. So safe to say I'm feeling stressed and worried. I'm 37 in a few weeks and husband in late 40s. Desperately pining for a second child and it's taking its toll on our relationship too. Doing all the right things to maximise chances. Tried sperm meets egg, BD every other day, he's cut out booze, smoothies with fruit, green veg and nuts etc. Work stress and working from home major factors but those are harder to control.
All of this aside, my cycles are getting stranger too and I'm worried it's because of my age. I've noticed that I start getting EWCM from CD 7, then by CD8 I have LOADS, libido through the roof etc - all the usual signs. Then from CD9 it starts suddenly tapering off but my peak (confirmed with BBT as well as LH testing) is almost always on CD14 so im confused. My last three luteal phases have been 12, 15 and 9 days. We know we have a definite fertility issue on my husband's side that we are working on but I just wondered if what I've described above sounds like a cause for concern/worth investigating too? Waiting for the latest set of my husband's SA results to come through in the post before contacting the GP and asking if there's anything else that can be done for us. But I imagine there's not much so thought I'd ask here as we've spent a few hundred on private tests so far.
Thanks so much if you've read this far.
