I’ve always had this terrible fear that I was not going to be able to have kids. I don’t have any basis for this fear other than the fact that I’m almost 33 with no children yet. I went to the doctor and had blood work done the day after I ovulated to see if I had in fact ovulated.

I had, but it was low, it was only a 7 and to have a “successful” ovulation, it needs to be at least an 11. I have the option of getting clomid whenever I want to begin the process.

It’s comforting in a way because now I know that it’s fixable, I’m not stuck wondering “will I ever?”

If he had said “yeah you’re ovulating at a high rate” then I would have no idea what was going wrong. Where else was my body failing me?

Turns out I just need more estrogen.
