    codemonkey: TTC#1 since Oct 2010. I'm 33, DH is 31. Possible problems on both sides, just started investigations into why it's taking so long.

    Thanks code - that's perfect! Do you have FS dates or anything as yet? If I recall correctly you are at the 'coaxing DH to get a SA stage'.

    We should probably have a list here somewhere as to what people are up to. Doesn't need updating like everyday like the one of the TTC thread, but perhaps something to keep an eye on where people are.

    What do you all think? Do you want to let me know some basic info - like age, ttc#1/2, and a brief update on what you have done, and what you are planning. Like 'researching adoption','IVF ICSI cycle 2 planned'. Include what hasn't worked only if you want, no need to empahsise what hasn't worked!! But at the same time, it can be helpful for others to know who to ask for advice.
    Great idea, and good to refresh where everyone is and where they've come from :)

    Quick question - Clomid. I have heard that they won't generally prescribe this for women who have PCOS or have Ovarian problems in past. Surely that can't be right as i would have thought LOTS of women with reproductive issues would have taken it and experienced thos problems.

    It makes me even more depressed :cool:
