I am undergoing fertility tests. Doc thinks im not oving or if I am its hit and miss. I am now waiting for further blood tests and a dye procedure.
Hubby has to give a sperm sample - should he stop LR for the sample? How long do the effects last? Could he do his sample just before af? I am v confident the issues lie with me x
Yes, you need to have him stop the LR and I think having him take it when he's been off it a while will be best.
You may be surprised about who the issues lie with - we have had several women on here learn that their husband had issues that they had never guessed at.
Thank you. Ill tell him to stop and get him to do the sample in a few weeks.
Do you have advice re a cut off for one attempt? I assume once my tests are completed the next stage will be clomid for me if I am not pg in a few months. I know I'll have a shelf life on that and a baby of either sex is better than no baby. I worry the one attempt isn't enough to get me pg now but maybe it could be if I took clomid x
I know it's hard for people to wrap their minds around, but it is entirely possible and in fact easy to get pregnant from one attempt. Everyone wants to blame it on the one attempt but 99% of the time it is NOT the one attempt.
BEfore you drop one attempt you should drop all other sway tactics and be very sure you are having a well timed attempt. (Such as, not 3 or 4 days before ovulation - not saying you are personally doing that but for the benefit of others out there who may have been) I would have dropped all other sway tactics and give it a couple months beyond that before I start adding attempts.
It's actually harder to get pg with one attempt on Clomid than without it because it changes your CM in a hostile way.
