Okay, I am back. I finally took a leap of faith and went to a specialist. I guess I was reluctant because it is like finally admitting that something is wrong. He was very nice and was in the office for like two hours. He gave me all of my options and at the moment we are starting kind of light. I am back on Metformin and of all things birth control?!?!?! Apparently he is very convinced that I do have PCOS but he is not worried. He put me on birth control to have me actually start my period. He wants to do a few more tests like taking X-rays of my tubes but I am having to wait until after June 1st. I had to up my insurance to something better because that one visit cost me like $200 and all he did was do some ultra sounds and drew blood. So, I feel like maybe this is my year and he will find the magic potion to get me pregnant. I know everyone says I am still young and have plenty of time but I really saw myself with a baby before I turned thirty. Here is to hoping the 2009 is the year for babies!!!!!!!!

Good for you. I've been trying to work up the courage to call my RE too. But everytime I get close I say to myself "I'll just try one more cycle" I guess I've got the same issue that you had. That being that once I go to the specialist it's like admitting that there really is something wrong. I'm also concerned because once I get the diagnosis of infertility (on paper) my insurance won't pay for any treatments. I've been diagnosed with unexplained infertility but for now my OB/GYN has kept it off paper to allow me further testing.


Anyway...just wanted to said congrats on going to the RE and I'm sure you're BFP is coming soon!
