I recently went couple months ago when I just turn 20, I went since I was having late painful periods and facial hair. Tbh I wish my doctor could of helped me more but since I have my own insurance now I’m getting more support from my new primary doctor now then I was in my early teens.

My husband and I waited 7 months and I’m glad we did. We still aren’t pregnant and have unexplained infertility but we’re already working with an RE so hopefully we’ll receive positive news soon! My advice would be not to wait a year before getting tested. The tests can be long (for example it took my husband a good 1.5 months to get in to see a specialist so he could do his semen analysis.) also, there’s all kinds of tests they do on you (blood work, ultra sounds, HSG, etc.) good luck!!! TTC is so hard! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I went off BC in June 2018 and still hadn’t gotten my period through mid sept so I went to the doctor. They found that my TSH levels were elevated (4.5) and so i started taking thyroid medication. After getting tested again and then going to an endocrinologist, I’m now at 3.7, but need to get it down to 2.5 or below before we should start TTC.....I wish the doctor would have found this earlier so I wouldn’t have blown 10 months just prepping my body before we even start trying.

My husband and I are 5 months into TTC and I just scheduled an OB appointment. I haven't gone in yet. So no verdict. But I decided to go in so early because I have endometriosis, so I know it'll be harder for us to conceive!
