Game Plan

Ah relief.... We have a game plan! I am one who has to know the plans and not knowing where we were going with our treatment was driving me insane! So I met with Dr. Williams ( Infertility specialist) today and we developed a plan. One that I am in control of and one that I am very pleased with.

Of course, Just like Dr Olah (My OBGYN) Dr Williams is very happy with all of our test results. Which is kinda frustrating! I am thankful things have came out good but just wish we could see the reason why we cant conceive. My HSG from last week, looked great so with that, my odds of conceiving are higher for the next 3 months. Sometimes there are buildups the xray doesn't detect that the dye clears, it can enhance ovulation, and make the uterus more acceptable for implantation. Our goal is that this will happen in the 3 months for us.

If not pregnant after the post HSG 3 months then around Thanksgiving I will be starting clomid for 3 months. Even though I am ovulating, Clomid will still raise my chance of conceiving. (Currently a 10% chance, but with Clomid around a 20%-30%) We will try those 3 months and if still not pregnant will go back and discuss our next steps. Right now those next steps will be to decide whether to have exploratory laparoscopy or Artificial insemination.

We are praying hard that either the 3 months of HSG increased fertility will work or the 3 months of clomid. We thank you all for your thoughts and prayers for us as we go through our journey with secondary infertility.
