It has been 4 months since my last post
So in the past four months, what has been happening?? A whole lot of nothing. I had my RE appointment. And then a battery of tests. During this time we have been told I am positive for MTHFR double gene mutation. Which means I am heterozygous MTHFR? I think. My C677 and A1298 genes are the ones affected. I also found out that I have low progesterone. My eggs are fine for somebody my age. They tested my prolactin level and thought I had a pituitary tumor. So had an MRI. It was negative. No tumor. But my slightly elevated prolactin level is being treated even though I had no symptoms what so ever. My level was 28 normal high is 18. So I'm taking Dostinex 0.5mg 2 times a week. I'm on Metformin 3 times a day at a max dose of 1500mg a day. I take Folgard 2.2 mg x 2 and Prenatal Vitamin with DHA x1. After ovulation I must take baby aspirin and progesterone. We were given the okay to try for a baby this past month. And we failed. No pregnancy. We have never tried and not gotten pregnant so I'm freaked out. Now I can't get pregnant and can't carry a baby. Anyway, my period only last 2 days and spotted off and on for 3. So they want me to come in and do a blood HCG. I know I'm not pregnant. I'm concerned I have cysts though. Anyway just rambling. I am going to try to keep this updated a bit more now that we are TTC.
