Going To Fertility Doctor

Hello Ladies!

After trying to conceive for nearly 2 years, my OBGYN urged me to go to a fertility specialist - my first appointment is on Monday. Needless to say, I'm terrified! :unsure: I really have no idea what to expect on my first visit. Please let me know if any of you have been to a fertility doctor and what your experience was on your initial visit.

Many thanks in advance!

I was an egg donor two years ago and my first visit was much like a gyn appointment. I am not sure if this helps or not.

Hi Cherry Tart,

Don't be scared, it's really not that bad. Both my husband and I went and we went over both of our medical histories and some of the tests that results that we had done. Then basically the dr ordered a couple of more tests for the both of us. Once we had completed all the tests they ordered we had another appointment to go over the results. They then went through some of the different fertility options and what they thought our best options were. So far we haven't been able to complete any of the additional treatments. I am hoping that we will be able to get a second opinion this year and then proceed with the procedure they recommend. I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any more questions.

      GLUTEN FREE OCD MEDICATION

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      vitamin D levels in obsessive-compulsive disorder "The number of participants with vitamin D insufficient ... and vitamin D deficiency ... in the OCD group was statistically significantly higher than the control group... and also the number of participants whose vitamin D levels were in the normal range ... in the OCD group was statistically significantly lower than the control group." Low vitamin D iscommon in Celiac Disease patients. Also no lithium in drinking water (bottled water) or in areas with low ground water Lithium contributes to anxiety. Association between naturally occurring lithium in drinking water and suicide rates The EPA calculated a provisional oral reference dose (p-RfD) of 2 μg/kg-day using the Provisional Peer-Reviewed Toxicity Value   https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2023-11/ucmr5-technical-fact-sheet-lithium-in-drinking-water.pdf Should we all take a bit of lithium?! Raising my vitamin D to 80 ng/ml and taking 5 mg a day of Lithium Orotate for a few month helped me.

      Toddler Diagnosis?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      After 3 months without gluten he will have healed and his blood tests will be negative. That does not mean "not celiac, ok to eat wheat, rye and barley again.  It does mean the diet is working.  Many of those recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease are often deficient in vitamin D and other vitamins and minerals.  It's a side effect called Malabsorption.  Get his blood checked for 25(OH)D level to be sure.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yeah, but that's probably not where you want to eat, anyway.

      Anyone try this? No matter what the brand, probiotics have ALWAYS made me break out bad. I am hesitant to try this simply for that fact, but I ordered a 3 month supply. Any input would be appreciated. Wish me luck.

      Gluten free vitamins

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      @llisa, I am curious to know how much vitamin D you are taking and what is your plasma level in nmol/L or ng/ml what the doctor's target 25(OH)D is. Hopefully with the gluten free diet you'll be able to feel better.
