Referral to the fertility specialist?

admin — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 22:41:31 +0000

I went to the doctor today with my husband, we’ve ben trying for 1 year, 1 month and got the results of our tests, my husbands sperm count is 200 with 50% motility, which seems to be ok, and they’re not sure whether I am ovulating, I had progesterone level of 10, but they arranged the test a bit early in m ycycle, so I have to go for a later one. I already knew I had PCOS, so she has put in a referral for us to go the the specialist, on the NHS. I’m pleased as I asked specifically to see a different doctor, and she seemed on the ball and very helpful, the complete opposite to the other doctor we were seeing- who actually couldn’t say the word ‘sex’ in front of me!!!!!! , but I would really like a bit of a clue as to what the fertility doctor might do, ask, talk about etc. Please would love any advice, tips or whatever…

Thank you
well, I’ve got all my dates since we started trying, so I’ll remember to take them!

I’ve looked up the government health website and done various interbet searches. But I don’t really want to have to go out of the country (eg. Spain) or go with a fertility clinic I don’t know anyhting about. I’d like to go through the NHS.

Has anyone else done this and do you have any advice for me?

having been ttc for 13 months with secondary unexplained infertility I have an appointment with fertility expert tuesday in london UK.

what advice do people have who have been through this kind of appointment, ie, have had private tests done and no problems with me: what should I be asking the NHS to do now? ie specific tests etc.

please only answer if you have a good understanding if this.
