Being referred to fertility clinic

[NatMoz]

I'm really sorry as this is all new to me and I don't understand the fertility lingo.

In a nutshell, I've been told that my hormones are low for the process of telling the brain to get my eggs ovulating each month.

I asked the doctor what was considered 'normal' and where am I in comparison and he wouldn't answer me directly...

Husband's fertility is fine.

Literally feel rubbish right now. Didn't think it would happen to me.

The other thing is he did say the only other option is that I'm already pregnant. I'm confident I'm not but have to take the test anyway before we proceed.

Sorry to be a whinge. I didn't think it would happen to me 😓

I have no clue what happens next at the fertility clinic

I'm sorry you've had bad news, OP. Fertility problems suck

It's not ideal that you might not be able to get pregnant without intervention and I know how worrying it is, but there are reasons to be positive! I have unexplained infertility, which basically means there's no way to fix it. I spent many years trying all kinds of batshit crap to fix my broken self and being paranoid about every aspect of my lifestyle. Really, IVF is the only option for me, despite everything apparently working as it should.

Having identified an issue, there maybe treatments that work before you get to that point. I know it's shit, and you're allowed to be upset, but at this early stage there's still reason to be hopeful.

How long have you been trying?

7 months so far. I know it doesn't sound like long but I also have cysts on my ovaries so I suspected I may face complications. To top it off I have also found out I didn't get the promotion I wanted earlier 😓😓😓.

I don't want to be melodramatic but probably the most disappointing day of 2021 so far
