went to see my doctor yesterday about somethingand we were discussing the fact that I am TTC and am currently on day 48 of my cycle with no period happening as yet. I had some wrist pain and was explaining I hadn't taken anything (pain killers)as I was unsure if I could be PG(am charting and had a rise on day 38 indicating ovulation still up fingers crossed )I was 9 DPO yesterday so explained that I had done a preg test and that it was neg (as I knew he'd ask if I could be PG) but that obviously it was probably too early to show up even if I was - to which he replied "oh no pregnancy tests can tell if you are pregnant straight from when you ovulate"
I am pretty sure he's wrong but am now concered as he agreed to give me a blood test (after I pestered ) and am now convinced he knows NOTHING about fertlity (he also said my period is EXACTLY 14 days from ovulation - will not consider any difference even though I chart and know my last cycle was 23 days and my LP was only 9 days. and also said my blood tests for hormone problems can be done on any day (not days 1-3 and 23 as the gyne nurse told me). Also the Gyne nurse said my DH had to have another semen anlysis as the first one (after a vasectomy reversal) can give falsley high levels of sperm and we also need to know morphology/motility. Doctor said his sperm tests were fine but seriously do not trust that he knows what hes talking about after being told the above blatantly untrue stuff.
He is a lovely old man but really doesn't seem to have a clue. Its a single practice so cant use another doctor.
If you've read this far well done! MY point is - should i be reporting this somewhere as it seems highly highly incompetent to me and may well be stopping me from accessing what I need in terms of fertility assessments.
eeeeeekkkk help!
