TTC Without Children

  • I think i am going to start doing some research for a dr in my area. I have had my thryoid checked but my mom said they didn't find hers at first so I know I need to get it checked again.

    If you've been trying for two years, then you fit the clinical definition of infertility, though that can range from serious (never getting pregnant) to fixable. Your best bet is to go see a doctor with your husband and try to figure out if it's timing, him, or what.

    I wish you all the best. My hubby and I are trying as well, but we just started this month :)


    good luck to you. I am going to try to find a specialist around here and get him to go with me. His reasoning is it's not our time. I think he would be crushed if he found out there was something wrong with either of us.

    If it was years ago get them unchecked. I never had hypothyroidism and then all of a sudden there it was after I lost 30lbs!! I've always had PCOS but it too can be triggered all of a sudden. Not all women with PCOS have cysts.

    Try fertility friend of you haven't already. It helps explain everything in detail and will track thing for you.

    Also don't know how you are with supplements but FertilAid is a wonderful supplement for both men and women. It helps regulate your hormones and provided all tue vitamins your body needs for having a baby. They also have a men's version.

    Yeah, men get all weird if you insinuate something might be wrong with their junk.

    Fertility Friend is WONDERFUL. They have a phone app (and I guess a website) where you can track your cycles to know if/when you're ovulating, etc., and they send you daily emails telling you how to track everything and then understand your charts.

    I have been using mymonthlycycle.com for 2 years and it is the same thing. I also use a feriilty diary app on my phone that tracks bbt opk hpt moods symptoms and periods and a few other things that i don't use like ferning tests fertility monitors cervical position/texture
