lyssacOk, I really like my doctor. We don't always agree 100% and he has definite ideas about things, but I really feel like he listens and is supportive.
I went in today to see about starting Clomid....
First of all, the nurse is great, I talked to her the other day about my cycle and about seeing the dr, and she must have written it all down after I left, because they knew what cycle day I was on and everything...
He agreed to start the Clomid and check on my progesterone later, but then changed his mind.
I'm going to take Clomid (50 mg) days 3-7, Estradiol days 8-12, and Progesterone supplements from day 17 through to either menses or week 10 of pregnancy.
He'll check on day 21 to see if I have ovulated, if not he'll up the Clomid for the next cycle. He'll give me 6 months, then its off to the RE.
I'm so glad that he is treating me aggressively, and that he and his staff are so completely supportive. After all of these years being ignored and told that it's "all in your head" or it's my fault because I'm overweight, it is such a blessing to have someone who listens and communicates.
I almost can't wait for this cycle to be over, so that we can do it already... :)
