I enjoy being informed.<br /><br />I, too, love a good plan and it sounds like you have one!

I only did clomid without IUI or an initial HSG but my insurance didn't cover any infertility, so just my short/relatively minor bout with infertility drugs ended up costing at least a couple thousand bucks and was super unpredictable. Also UCSF rules. <br />(this is Melanie)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15802671575466772925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700054424832774619.post-17999949982704627612012-01-22T12:59:03.728-08:002012-01-22T12:59:03.728-08:00That is SO COOL that you guys are going to be invo...That is SO COOL that you guys are going to be involved in that study! Can't wait to hear more about it. It really surprises me that, for the over 35 bunch, you are officially considered 'infertile' after six months of trying. That is a big freaking stamp to be labeled with, I say. It sounds like you really have fantastic doctors, which is just perfect for the kind of journey you've found yourselves on - I'm kinda jealous about your awesome doctors (though that is weird... and probably entirely inappropriate [so I'll throw in an extra RA! RA! for how awesome you are just in case, haha]... it is just SO HARD to find good doctors here who spend the time with me that I need, explain stuff in a way that assumes intelligence... and oh how I wish there could be someone to draw diagrams!).<br /><br />And no surprises, skinny legs, that your thyroid levels are a teeny weeny schmeeny bit high ;) You're gonna be stretch-marked and poppy-outy-belly-buttoned in no time!Johannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04084112704041213350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700054424832774619.post-25033645281291573302012-01-20T23:27:06.749-08:002012-01-20T23:27:06.749-08:00Lots of details there.

Visit dr in feb 2011, she says lose weight, and they might have to do surgery as next step after that. Jan 2012 haven't lost weight, worried about going back because she'll just say to lose weight. Need to lose weight?<br /><br />Glad your progressing along this plan, the trial sounds like a good deal!!Jaime Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09929321189864249791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700054424832774619.post-9468004340379779262012-01-18T13:07:36.933-08:002012-01-18T13:07:36.933-08:00holy cow! that's alot of stuff to do but i gue...holy cow! that's alot of stuff to do but i guess its one step at a time.

It was actually one of the first tests my doc ordered. They also will check again before I start IUI (because of the study, they recheck a lot of things).sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13310905438413460018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700054424832774619.post-15568304395280430622012-01-18T09:01:21.260-08:002012-01-18T09:01:21.260-08:00Sounds like a plan, and I love a plan.

By fluke mine was checked and was found to be really low, so my doc put me on progesterone (and eventually even some estrogen) to help me get prego and then "maintain" the pregnancy. Just wanted to throw that out there. :)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956700684778929125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700054424832774619.post-25360331727129974892012-01-17T20:03:19.034-08:002012-01-17T20:03:19.034-08:00Wow!

I want to say yay that everything checks out good with your girly bits and the sperm, but I suppose it's also frustrating to not know what the cause is. <br /><br />How lucky that you qualified for the study! I'd be excited about that, too. You're helping other people!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08972578479645431280noreply@blogger.com
