. Let me introduce myself, my name is Jen. I'm 26 and my DH is 29 and we have been TTC for 7 years now. After testing for 4 years we were told two years ago that IVF with ICSI was our only hope for having a child together. It took us those two years to prepare for this journey.
I have an-ovulitory syndrome with some tube damage with clubbing on my left tube. DH has vericosile that has caused a low sperm count.
We started the IVF process at the end of May. The first step for us was the consultation. We also have done the mandatory IVF class. DH had his seamen analysis last week with not so good results but will be testing again. If the results come back the same he will need to have a Testicular Biopsy. Today I had my SIS/Trial Transfer with not so good results too. They couldn't find my left ovary (it could be adhered to my colon, this has happened before) and only found 5 eggs in my right ovary. I was hoping for better results. Now I have to go back for another SIS/TT this time taking Magnesium Citrate to empty my colon the night before.
I'm here to meet other women going through this process and am willing to talk about it. Because my DH and I have decided not to tell our family we are dong this I really don't have any one to talk to. I'm hoping this message board will be a good support system. I had no idea what kind of emotional roller coaster we were going to be put through doing this.
