Sorry about your bruise. Next time if they are hurting you tell them and have him be more gentle. I had a doc once who squeezed my ovaries too tight. When I complained he said "that what guys feel like when kicked in the groin" Did I need to know that? Take care girl and keep on trucking. |

Darlene, try not to blame yourself for your infertility. You do not know why yet and you cant alwlays blame it on obesity since alot of obese women get pregnant. I realize that it is hard not to do. I hated it when I was told mine was unexplained infertility. Now it is because my eggs are caput but it was so frustrating not knowing what to do to make myself get pg. We all wonder what we could do different to make a pg happen. We would stand on our heads and eat worms if it would help. It is not your fault that you are infertile. take care of yourself and keep in touch. Be gentle with yourself my freind. We are here for you. |

Darlene.... you sound like you have thyroid issues. tell you doctor to run a complete thyroid panel on you (not just TSH)... TSH can be normal, but your thyroid could still be out of whack. They need to check for thyroid antibodies, T3 and T4.... Hypothyroidism is known to cause infertility. YOu have to be really firm with your doctor, though, because most will only look at the TSH and refuse to do anything else. |

I just called another doctors office. He was refered to me by a friend who has PCOS, he is an OBGYN and she really liked him, he works with infertility. He is covered by my insurance, and they said he is accepting new patients. I left a voice mail for the assistant there to call me back so I can set an appointment. |

Well, the OBGYN cant see me till 05/20... |

Darlene.... it sucks to have to wait for a doctor. But make good use of the time. Get a copy of your test results and do your own research so you can ask the doc good questions. This will help save time in the long run. There are many factors that affect infertility.... your thyroid is one of them, so make sure they do a full panel. Also.... when it's time to test hubby's sperm, they make a special condom he can use and then you can take it to the doctor's office yourself... provided you live close enough. |

Hi Darlene - TTc is right that thyroid problems can cause facial hair and period problems. I have older female patients that suddenly grow beards and have their thyroids checked out. I am with you. I hate to wait. |
