First Fertility Appointment

Hello,

I have my first fertility appointment on May 6 and I’m an anxious wreck. The doctor had us do a bunch of testing prior to the initial appointment which I appreciate as it’s much more effect. I also had an HSG exam which came back as normal, no blocked tubes. I have PCOS, very irregular periods, don’t ovulate and insulin resistance. I was also just diagnosed with Hashimotos a few weeks ago.

My family doctor prescribed two rounds of clomid 50mg in Jan and Feb but I did not ovulate, however pretty sure I developed cysts the first cycle because of the cramping I had. I told my doctor I was not interested in taking fertility medications unmonitored because it was just creating more stress than anything at which point he referred me to a fertility specialist. I’m hoping re puts me on letrozole instead as that seems to have higher success rate than clomid.

I’m currently taking the following supplements:

Balance-Alani nu

Pre-natal- Alani nu

Synthroid- 50mg

Evening primrose oil- cd1-14

I’ve been taking Balance for just over 1 month now and I had spotting April 5-10, and then started spotting again April 16. Very light, only when I wiped but from April 22 to today it’s heavier with some clots. I think this is the myo-inositol in Balance which is causing some hormonal changes.

Will keep you updated as I progress 😊 please pray for me!
