What are your reasons for not being able to conceive a baby? Have you been diagnosed with PCOS? Endo? Male factor? Blocked tubes? Do you have ovulatory issues?
What have you gone through to fix it? Meds? Surgery? At least there is something that can be done to try to fix whatever the issue is, right?
I happen to be one of those "lucky" ones that have been fallen into the "unexplained infertility" category. What does that really mean? I've done all the blood tests, HSG, SHG, a laparoscopy and a few hysteroscopies. Sure, I have had a few polyps removed. Everything checked out fine since then. I hear "there is no reason why you can't get pregnant". Still, I've had 4 failed IUIs. And still no baby.
Of course I've heard the occasional "you're still healthy and young, you've got time". Really? I am 36 now, you really think I have that much time? Maybe 36 is "still young" for IVF, but I had hope that I would not have to get to this point.
It's just so frustrating that it seems that no one can explain why I can't get pregnant. AT ALL! All these years of trying I have NEVER had a BFP. Not once. EVER.
Never had a miscarriage, which I am grateful for because I don't know how I could handle it. I know some of you ladies have gone through this painful experience, and I can't even imagine how strong you are.
It really saddens me to think that I cannot even get pregnant. What is wrong with my body? God created our bodies so that we can have babies and have families. And no one can explain to me why. Only God knows.
So ladies, I'd appreciate if you would share what your cause of IF is, and if fixing the issue has helped you conceive. Or if you are "lucky" like me and fall into the "unexplained" group.
