trying for a combined 8 months, questions

Jarheadwed · #1 January 26th, 2009, 06:21 PM

My DH and I have been ttc since August when he got home from Iraq, and for two months before he left, so combined 8.

My current issues are:
-I have had 4 bacterial infections in the past few months, most of which the treatments stretched halfway into my ovulation time (I am just starting to chart, before I was using an ovulation calendar)
-My period for the past two months have been two days late and both started, stopped for a day, and restarted- does that have anything to do with anything?
-I have a tipped uterus- can that affect anything?

I am waiting for my lovely military health coverage to switch into my new area so I can get a referral to see a gyno, but has anyone experienced any of the above and have any ideas?

My period has always stopped and started and my uterus is also tipped! IDK what they matter though!

First off,

I'm glad you found us! I hope your stay here is a short one though!
I'm not really sure how the infections affect things or about the strange AF, but I do know that some of my friends have gotten pregnant with a tipped uterus, so I wouldn't worry about that one!!! Hopefully you can get in and see your Dr soon!

Welcome!!

I would think it very well could be meds/infections but its hard to say for sure.

I hope you can get into see the doc soon!

Welcome. I have a tilted uterus too, my doctor said it wouldn't hurt conception at all. Depending upon which way yours is tipped, some BD positions may be better than others though in terms of getting the sperm to where they need to go. Good luck!
