I was wondering what all you have tried and what you are planning on trying?


I Charted my temps and CM for several months, and finally had to take clomid.

[KrissyJ]

I did the same thing as you and now Im seeing a specialist because Im not oing healthy eggs!

[rollopodio]

i just recently started temping and i'm not sure what the future holds.

[kegohn]

I've charted my temps and CM and I'm on my third cycle using a CP Monitor. If it doesn't happen this or next cycle our next step is SA for DH and then after that I'm not quite sure what the future will hold.

[Can't Wait]

We have tried several differnet things with no success. I have done temping & opk's for a very long time now. We have been seeing a RE for approx. the last year. I was on Clomid for 6 cycles & 3 cycles of injectibles with hcg shots & IUI. DH & I have both been through all the testing & everything comes back normal so it is getting very hard for both of us. This will either bring us closer together or rip our marriage apart. I'm hoping it will bring us closer & we will be able to share our life with a baby very soon.

Good luck to every one!!!

We have tried all sorts in the 21mths we have been ttc

Opks, preseed, ovulation scope etc.
My DB has 20% motility sperm so our chances are not great.
He has been taking a zinc supplement and i have been drinkin green tea...YUCK!

I have charted my temps, taken Vitex, B-6 and used Natural Progesterone Cream. Found out it was the wrong cream. The Vitex only dried up the breast milk...good thing. The B-6 I still take for queasiness. I have used OPKs.

I had a little blood work done. DH had a SA. I had something like a HSG. All came back normal.

I am still charting and now on Clomid. When we BD we use a pillow during and after under my butt and hips.

I am taking Chasteberry (Vitex) 3xday. How long did you take it before you stopped? Just wondering how much of this Herbal stuff is too much. Sarsaparilla, Black Cocosh, Magnolia Bark, Etc Etc.

The last time I became pg while taking Estroven and now I am trying that again along with a few other things that I have researched. I've never taken an Herb in capsule form before in my life.... until now that I'm TTC!

I'm also using Pre-Seed, OPK, BBT but this is only my first month TTC.

(I tried to get pg for 16yrs before it happened accidently while taking Estroven .. works naturally to level hormones)

Good Luck to everyone!

I found out I'm going through premature ovarian failure. I've had my FSH tested three time (50, 20 and 18) and I've seen two fertility doctors. I'm planning to undergo IVF using an egg donor later this year.

We have been charting since december (two long cycles) using OPK's, just started trying PreSeed, taking prenatals, DH takes multivitamins, zinc and vitamin C, had a HSG done, DH had SA done, had lots of bloodwork done.

All tests and SA came back normal. HSG is normal. Starting Clomid next cycle unless a miracle happens this cycle.

TTC for 10 months

I have been off of the pill since Sept. 2004. (I have VERY regular 26 day cycles with O on day 13-14) I have been using OPKs but have only been charting for 4 months. We use preSeed and I have been on prenatals since Dec. 2004. My husband has had a SA and I have had an HSG which both came back normal. At the end of next month, I have a consult with my doctor on what to do next. I have been racking my brain wondering what that "next step" might be. Any guesses?

TTC since January 2005 and have no patience left!!!!

Have you had your Cervical Mucus checked? I have heard they can do a test with it and your DH's sperm to make sure that it is compatible and that the balance of your stuff is not killing his. Your doctor also might be willing to trying insemination since you have been trying so long if you are interested in that. They can wash your DH's sperm for the most concentrated and best swimmers and then implant it in your uterus.

Have you stopped temping? I has trying to stalk your chart. I am at about the same place in my cycle as you and I had my HSG this cycle too so I hope that helps us and you as they say that it can drastically increase your chances of getting pregnant for a cycle or two after you have it done.

Before our m/c we tried the "let's just let it happen approach." I tried taking B6 but it didnt seem to do anything for me. As of this month, I've started BBT, opk, and taking Fertility Blend. My cycles tend to be on the shorter side - 21 to 24 days. Today I'm on CD 24, not sure if my cycle is just running longer this time, if the FB is affecting it or maybe will be BFP? Guess I will find out in the week to come.

[BobbiC]

I have had bloodwork, ultrasound, hips in the air after BD. DH had s/a. (get results on Friday). Taking multi vits.
If DH s/a comes back norm then doc will send me to specialist and hoping they will let me try clomid for a cycle or two.
Thinking of trying ovulex, just recently read up on this.
Any thoughts on this drug ladies? Do you know of anyone successful taking it?

Hi Everyone !!!!

I'm just dropping in. I understand first hand how frusterating TTC is and how how emotional drained you can get . We tried for almost 24 months before I got pregnant. I temped and watched my CM. We tried Sawpalimeto, Flax seed oil and Evening prime rose oil. Davy was taking Vitamin C, Zinc, Vitamin E, Multivitamin. Finally I took Soy (175mg) and kept taking my multivitamin my last cycle that we got pregnant. Thank God. I want to WISH YOU ALL GOOD LUCK. I pray you all see your BFP's very soon in the near future. Don't give up your dream pray they come true....
