I
have been trying for a year to get
pregnant with no luck. After taking birth
control for 10 years, i got married and my
husband and I decieded to try for children
right away. I stopped the birth control
and had one period, for the 6 months
following this i didn't have another
period. Everyone including my Dr. told me
my body was just adjusting to coming off
birth control, but referred me to an
infertility clinic. I went to the
infertility clinic one month later and
they started me on Clomid. I then took
clomid for the last 5 months with ever
increasing doses each month. Each month
went for a blood draw with results saying
I didn't ovulate.
Now I was told the clomid isn't working
for me so they are going to start a
mini-stim on me, and sent me home with
Clomid, Gonal-F, and Novarel. In the mean
time I got a new job at a hospital and had
to have an MMR shot. Which ment I couldn't
try for a baby for at least 4 weeks. So
Dr. put me back on birth control for one
month ( against my will ) then told me to
call when I got my period for directions
on the Mini-stim. So I called today
because I got my period, and was told no
appt's available till May 15th(one more
month)... I cried... I am crying...
another month of birth control to stablize
my ovaries....More provera to force a
period.... I'm so frustrated I want to
give up... my sex life is in the toilet
beacuse my last period lasted 3
weeks(making up for lost time i guess)...
anyone else have such frustration? if so
how did you handle it with out loosing
your mind. I am loosing hope... thanks
for reading my post, if you have any
advice for me please let me know
