The Trials and Tribulations of Trying to Conceive when its just not happening (12m+)

Primmer

Cd2 here and feeling awful, af is really painful and heavy which is unusual for me. Why after all these years of trying unsuccessfully does it still hurt so much when af appears. Think I need to accept that I have come to the end of the line and I am never going to be a mum:o

Hello all

I might be late to the game with this but for those with unexplained fertility new research came out in nov about the cause related to damaged DNA in sperm.

There's a test that can be carried out, and apparently if damage is found they recommend ICSI rather than IVF

Hey ladies,

Sorry to not read back, but thought I would drop by to say today was operation day and I am now hopefully starting my proper recovery.

Doc says we can go back to TTC in 6 months.. its silly that that is my big focus! But I think we need some happy things to aim for now.

The drugs here are fun as usual. Hope everyone's well.
Blog I'll update the blog in a moment, although I seem to have been in touch with so many people already!

Hi T2D,

I'm amazed you're well enough to write. That's great news. I hope you recover quickly.
