Hi everyone!

I'm Annie, and we're TTC'ing our second. (Our DD, Alma is 2.5) We've been trying since May of last year, which isn't too terribly long, but I have a pretty severe LPD, so we've been doing acupuncture, herbals and progesterone supplements since a couple of months before we started TTC.

Our first go-round we saw a RE that took one look at my charts and prescribed me progesterone supplements. We were able to conceive on our first cycle on the supplements, so that was the extent of our experience with one! This time around, we decided to try a more natural approach as my LPD wasn't as bad as it was a couple years prior. My ND was able to lengthen my LP to the point where I was able to get pregnant without the supplements, but through a ridiculous series of events (that I'd really rather not get into, as I'm still very angry about it) I was not able to get a prescription for progesterone and lost the baby.

I saw my GP and got a prescription for progesterone to continue to TTC, but he told me that once my Rx ran out, that he would refer me to another RE. (I lived in a different city last time) BFN this cycle and I stop the progesterone tommorow, so I have an appointment on Wednesday for a referral. I'm nervous about it, since I really don't know what to expect! The last one told me that the next step would be Clomid, but I'm not sure what the next one will say. I think I'm going to request an HSG as well, since both times I conceived I O'd on the right side, but nearly always O on the left??? (Like, the only time I O'd on the right since my PPAF was when I conceived.) That concerns me a little bit, I've got to say.

Alright, so that was ALOT longer than I had planned Sorry for the ramble! I'll probably have lots of questions for you ladies in the coming months, especially once I have my first RE appointment!

hi muffin. Welcome to ttcma. You were always so helpful to me on ttc board. Thank you. I have found my home here on ttcma and I am sure these ladies wealth of knowledge will help you too. I remember your bfp for a few days and you didn't get your progesterone in time. I am so sorry that happened to you. I hope that you can see another bfp very soon and hold your healthy baby in your arms. I am glad you are hanging out with us. Hopefully your stay is short like Ms. Nina :-)

welcome to the group! i hope you have a great appt with the new RE and develop a gameplan for your next cycle...i'm also on progesterone supplementation and after doing 1 unmedicated cycle my RE also recommended trying Clomid + Ovidrel, which is what we tried this current cycle.

Wishing you the very best & hopefully a quick path to a BFP here!
