Four medicated cycles, all failed.
Now I'm officially moving on to the next step. Surgery.
It's scheduled for December 1.
I don't know exactly what will happen. I don't see the Dr. for the pre-op appointment until next Monday. I have a ton of questions for him that day.
- How big is my septum?
- Will you be able to remove it all with one surgery?
- What is the difference between a septum and a bicornate uterus?
- Is there a difference in treatment?
- How do you know it's a septum and not bicornate?
- Will you do an HSG at the same time?
- Will I see you before/after the surgery?
- How long can D stay with me before the surgery?
- Does it matter when in my cycle the surgery is done?
- Is there any potential that I will lose a tube or that the tubes become blocked because of the surgery?
- What can I expect in terms of recovery?
- What pain killers will I be given?
- How long will I be off work?
- Will I have a balloon inserted? How long will it be there?
- Will I need to be on estrogen or progesterone after?
- When will we be able to start to TTC?
- Will any pregnancy I have after this be automatically considered high risk?
- What are the risks during pregnancy as a result of the surgery?
- What will my first cycle after surgery be like?
- Will we do any drug treatments right away?
- How any timed cycles will we do before moving to IUI?
- Is it possible to build up a resistance to Femara? It worked great in cycle 1, then cycle 2 was long and no ovidrel, cycle 3 was upped to 5mg and was short, cycle 4 is also at 5mg and is long...
- From the research I've done, septum's are often associated with recurrent losses, since I have never had a pregnancy or a loss, what are my chances that this will solve my problem and actually get me pregnant?
- In each of the 3 cycles that I did a trigger shot my period came exactly 11 days after the injection leaving me with an LP of 10 days max. Is that long enough? Should I be on a progesterone supplement after the surgery?
When I have some answers to these questions, I will come back and share them.
For now, I'm catching up on the Twilight Saga in preparation for Breaking Dawn on Friday!
