TTC - Trying to Conceive 2017

grumpet,

I heard that if you are TTC, your TSH level should be under 1.5. My is 2.3 without meds, worried if it's too high for ttc women.
Iodine helps with hypothyroidism.

2.3 is definitely within normal. american thyroid assoc recommends below 2.5 tsh for pregnancy.

optimal is ard 1 tsh, according to the book i recommended and my doc. she wanted mine below 2, but i have a history of thyroid issue. i supposed 1.5 is pretty good too since it is a range.

https://www.endocrineweb.com/conditions/hypothyroidism/hypothyroidism-diagnosis

If u do not have any problem and symptoms presented, u shld not be overly worried. just my thots.

if u are very concerned, have symptoms .... then u shld run full panel, including free T3/T4/thyroid antibodies Tpo and one other test. there is also less common, reverse T3 test (expensive -sent to US labs). cos TSH alone is insufficient.

i am more wondering why u are taking iodine salt, and not iodine, and is tcm helping with yr tsh ?

Just sharing, There are supplements that help support thyroid glands... like Thorne Thyrocsin. im taking it. i take 1 cap only.
stop taking when pregnant.

Hi there, don't see any pic posted.
are u on CD15 (15 from last menses) or DPO15 (15 day past ovulation)?
 
Hi ladies, I'm so glad I found this thread. I've been feeling so down and lonely because nobody around me understands how difficult it is to conceive! I've been ttc nearly a year now. Had a chemical pregnancy in may and no good news since.

I've started letrozole 2.5mg 1 cycle after the chemical and surprisingly brought my ovulation from cd21 to cd16. I've also just started seeing Dr. Tan Siew Buoy from NTU tcm clinic. I had my hsg, ultrasound, egg reserves checked among other blood tests done at cd20. All came back normal except i wasnt ovulating by cd20. But no blood tests done at cd2/3 like I've seen in earlier posts to check for estrogen. Is estrogen levels test necessary or a common procedure? Hubby also did his sperm analysis. There weren't any problems with him.

I've been tracking my bbt for over 10 cycles now accompanied with digital opk. I've also tried giving my hubby folic acid, maca, tongkat ali and myself vitamin b complex, fertility supplements and vitex now I've stopped them all and just rely on letrozole and tcm concoctions.

Sorry for the mouthful! Thanks for reading!

Have you tried using First response? It's quite hard to find,only a few sellers selling it on carousell. It gave me a positive before clearblue. Good luck!

hello kehroll,
it can be quite a crazy journey and agree lonely at times, but always stay positive. im not familiar with letrozole, is that for ovulation like clomid?
one of the obgyn i saw thinks i shld start fertility drugs soon, due to my age but im not ready, ttc naturally first.

I'm in my 2WW now, going insane every month ard this time. I'm not sure if i ovulated this month, opk was not conclusive.

I have just done hormone tests which includes estrogen (estradoil), progesterone and a few others. This is usually refer to as the CD21 test. CD20 shld be the same??
But i read this applies to women who are regular and 28 day cycle. i am abt 32 day, after googling like crazy... some said shld be done ard 7 dpo (progesterone peak ard there) and double checked w my doc, i was told to take my blood test on CD23 or CD24 instead. I prob O ard CD16-18 based on my bbt.

these tests are done for few reasons, including to check if u ovulated and whether the hormones are balanced or not.

I didnt do any CD2/3 hormone tests before as well. I think this may be required if yr period is not regular, they may take hormones over different phases thruout yr cycle.

Hello grumpet, thank you for your kind words it's nice to have support here.

yup letrozole is an equivalent of clomid but with lesser side effects I read. My gyn suggested clomid initially and I wasnt happy so she prescribed letrozole instead. I'd have liked it if I didn't have to take the fertility drugs. Put on 2kg on the lowest dose of letrozole alr.

Yup it applies to women with regular 28 day cycles so my blood tests were shifted to CD25 just nice on the cycle that was nearly 50 days long so they concluded that I didn't ovulate at all. it really drove me insane that cycle. I think I spent about 70 bucks just on all sorts of pregnancy tests alone lol

I go gaga during the 2ww as well esp because my LP is usually 12 days long. During my last cycle, it went up to 14 days! Never happened before. Not sure if it's due to the tcm meds or letrozole.

Baby dust to you!
 
So whats your next step? :) baby dust to you!
Hmmm... idk as well. My gyn said to try letrozole for 3 cycles. I just started my 2nd cycle. Hoping for a miracle. She told me to go for another ultrasound to monitor my tiny 2mm cyst. I read fertility drugs really messes with the cysts.

I'm quite convinced my lining is too thin for implantation because my period is almost non existent so I've been doing 2mins of bridge pose and child pose every night to increase blood flow to my pelvis.

Great to have this forum support :) will read up on letrozole.

$70 on tests only, that's super cheap. HSG or one of the scans already costs me that. I have spent easily $2.5 k maybe more, and some are subsidized rates excluding consultations, over 3yrs TTC :( most of it due to recurrent preg loss. :( :(

I thot LP12 is ok?

Yea, I did some of those yoga poses too, like putting the feet up against the wall. haven't done it in a while. mostly I do Pilates for endometriosis/ fibroids.

What other "crazy" things do u ladies do?

There's so many for me, like castor oil packs... quite messy, only do in follicular phase. then there is holding legs up after BD for 15min... and there was this video I saw by an acupuncturist (TTC over 40+ that said she hugged a warm water bottle down there after sex) cos some warmth (not too much) helps the sperm swim faster ... lol . I tried that once only, my hubby was like it's not winter here.

My gync gave me 3 cycle of letrozole to try naturally too while waiting for my 2nd fresh ivf in oct. Hopefully can get pregnant using letrozole. =) Stopped all my cold drinks and drink red date longan tea. Took supplements too. Jia you

Lol you misread I think. I spent over 70 bucks on pregnancy tests in that cycle. I've also spent about 2k on all the tests, gyn visits, tcm, supplements, opk, impulsive pregnancy tests, all that.

I'm also worried about recurring chemical pregnancy. And thought I should hurry visit a gyn specializing in recurring loss just in case the min I get a BFP.

Hmmm 12-14 days long is normal I think. But I was convinced I had a LP defect because I had fertile cm before period starts which is one of the symptoms. And there were 2 cycles when my LP fell to 11 days. Maybe lacking in progesterone after ovulation. But after letrozole last cycle with tcm med, I noticed it became normal.

I'm thinking of looking into doing fertility massages but they're very expensive if you get a professional. Theres some help on diy. Gonna look into using menstrual cups to lock the sperm in after BD too. Lol. I also put my legs against the wall with double pillows and hurt my neck Cus it's too steep but whatever helps!

I wonder if stopping cold drinks helps though. Cus few friends of mine BD on their honeymoon with a couple of beers and vola. I also tried to inject some romance with wine and some jazz music and got a BFP that cycle but turned into a chemical few days later. Lol. Good luck to you!!
 
Hi kehroll, yr situation is almost same as mine. Just that we have been trying to conceive for almost 4 years with no news at all. I went kkh for checkup last 2 years. I also ovulate late (ard cd 20) and doc just simply say I'm not ovulating. Didn't trying want to explain to me that because I didn't ovulate by cd 20. I couldn't believe I didn't ovulate because i test positive with digital opk and do bbt.

We have also try lots of supplements (from folic acid, maca, tongkat ali, blackmores conceive well, boil Chinese herbs, fertility supplements) also didn't work. I also bought complex b and vitex. Also not working as well.

I'm thinking to try tian yuan xiang chicken Essence for conceiving since it is opened in spore soon. Next mth, I will be visiting Dr Tan Siew Buoy for my 1st appt. Looking forward :)
Hi angel, did kkh recommend fertility treatments? I also went to kkh after we failed to conceive in 6 months. Wanted to do some tests to rule either one of us out as the cause. Everyone tells me we're young so shouldn't be difficult. But I see my older colleagues all get pregnant and give birth 1 by 1. I'm still here trying

Yeah I don't believe I didn't ovulate also just that my ovulation came 16 days too late that cycle they wanted to do the blood test. Although my opk stated I'd ovulate around cd20 like usual, my real ovulation was only about cd36 lol.

I heard real reviews from my 2 sis in law who were both ivf cases. They got pregnant after seeing dr tan for about a year. So good luck!!

hmmm interesting ... menstrual cup can do that ?!

i was looking for first response hpt, couldn't find it. just bought the "predictor brand" supposed to be sensitive 6 days b4 period. hope it's works!

Hi grumpet, I think my most crazy thing now is learning qigong. Haha ...

haha ... i took 12 lessons of qigong too, found it quite calming but too slow for me. i was quite stressed.

where can u find prof fertility massage? I just do simple ones "mayan self massage" that i find in baby making book.
 
Hi Kehroll,

Just to let you know, we went to kkh for checkup and choose Dr THH as our doc. I think I'm quite disappointed with him. He is too busy and don't have the time to consult me. His only suggestion is doing ivf. I suggest clomid and give hb vitamins as I wanted to try natural and not ready for any fertility treatment & mental stress. Because I do not have confidence that just one try and it will be succeed. I have 2 colleagues do not have fertility problem and yet they went through abt 10 times ivf procedure. Well ... they earned much and they can afford it. So I decide to go for tcm treatment. I change 2 tcm. Dr Tan Siew Buoy is my 3rd tcm doc.

Hopefully it works for us. I always believe that choosing a tcm dr that suitable for us need 缘份 :)

Looks like quite a few of u went to see Dr Tan SB. Hope her treatment works for u. I think I wasnt fated to see her or tcm. made appt to see her, long wait but something kept preventing me from going, like travelling, not well, etc. . other tcm sensei all didnt go well.

only thing i did last few months was doing acupuncture at my womb / abdomen area and tcm powder that my friend passed to me to "strengthen the uterus" but last mth had the most painful period and almost fainted. so I've stopped.

if yr colleagues hv no fertility problem then they wouldnt have needed ivf . maybe undiagnosed.

It supposedly acts as a "stopper" I guess lol. I read some fertility sites recommend it.
 
Oh!!! My LP also short. Mostly is 11 days only. If my cycle is weak, it will be shorter than that. If my cycle is good, it can be 13 days. Every mth is like up & down.
It is a defect I think. 14 days is supposed to be the norm. But I've read about ladies getting pregnant with 10 days LP even. I guess the 14 days is to give your fertilized egg extra days to implant ba.

Wow qi gong is really next level I can't imagine myself doing anything slower than yoga. Yoga itself is pretty torturous to me!

My other gyn says losing 5% fat may help for my case. I'm not overweight but I'm almost there I think lol.

Im seeing dr liu shuling at clinic D kkh. Pretty comfortable with her. She will address the concerns and attentive.

Those of you BBT, and fairly regular can try using Natural Cycles app and Fertility Friend. I'm using free version.

NC is a paid app, but they let u trial it for 1 months. They have some algorithm to calculate yr ovulation etc, but dont track CM. So if u already have past few months cycle bbt info on hand, u can key in 2-3 months and it will calculate for u. Much clearer on my stats, like Ov ard CD18/19+/- 2days and coverline, which i cannot figure out .

I was using period calendar tracker for a long time, but it's not so good for TTC.

Overall i prefer fertility friend, more info for free version. altho NC 's interface is cleaner, prettier. I didnt try Ovia.

but hubby was tired and I fell ill on CD 10 so we bd on CD 11.
today at CD 12, OPK is showing positive.

i don't know when i should bd now :p
cuz i wonder how fast will the sperm reproduce.
and also try so many months until i also blur :p

i know in the end it all goes down to lady luck.
but do let me know what u think.

hi hi,
Just do IT ,! lol ... asap .

if hubby's sperm has no problem, daily BD is fine. otherwise, like low sperm count, it is recommended every other day.

Since u BD one day before O, there is already a chance u can get pregnant.
Egg survived only abt 24 hrs, and the sperms up to 3-5 days inside u.

if all goes well, success rate is only like 25-30% ... so I'll say do it! Happy baby dancing :)

Last tcm that I visit is at marine parade. It also a long queue & waiting time. I'm ok to wait as I feel my body is good when I took Chinese medicine. And the tcm dr say my body suitable for Chinese treatment. I change it because the medicine doesn't suit my hb Heath.

I also try acupuncture before. Though it is gd but I dun like needle poke on my body.

Yea. My colleagues are diagnosed with unexplained fertility.

Oh i actually went to see him too. William at Marine Parade, No long queue at 10am. Ban Choon Chan med hall. But he couldnt diagnose me cos I haven't got my menses yet after mc. he was a bit nagging, how am I supposed to know tt but said my pulse seems healthy and it will be hard to drag my hubby there after tt session. so we never went back, cos I feel must agree as a couple.
Heard he may be retiring (unverified)

Then drink some ginger tea / red date longan tea etc if possible. I drink red date tea almost daily.
 
Dr Chan's English name is called William? I didn't know it. Haha.. Ya. He is a bit nagging. Everytime I go to see him, he always assure me I will pregnant if I drink his medicine. Give me hope & disappointment every mth. After that I decide not to see him because he always out of town and didn't inform. Waste my trip and I also find that he also a bit no 'xin' to see his patient nowadays.

oh opps, haha i'm not sure but my friend referred him as that if i remember correctly. yea 'xin' (heart) is very important. Was looking for a doc..obgyn etc that I'm comfortable with and have 'xin' .

I dont feel much Qi these days ... so tired and dizzy these few days after getting up from bed. anyways i only took basic classes.
you must be very good now in yr qigong
 
Then drink some ginger tea / red date longan tea etc if possible. I drink red date tea almost daily.
good idea !
actually i thought of it but then i was so busy i forgot about it
(busy i meant busy at home and at work :p ...i know ironically i am here at this webpage haha)

i work for a fast paced company in the sense that almost everything i do has a deadline.
and almost everything i do affects our company's ISO certification
when job volume is at its peak, i dont even have time to check my mobile phone
u might ask me to change my job but colleagues are good, benefits are good.
so i am staying put for now :p

so anyone still able to make red date longan tea despite busy schedule ?

we still need to wash the red date and longan beforehand right ?
 
Hi Ladies
I am on my 2 week wait now.
Did my first IUI on 3rd July.
Blood test is tom.
I couldnt resist the temptation to test hence used the clear blue pregnancy test on 16dpiui and tested negative. Did anyone fail home kit test and tested positive on blood test? Quite anxious here.

GOOD LUCK!! please keep updating !
 
Any recommendations for fertility specialist? I kept having chemical pregnancies. Hope to find out what's going on. TIA

I am currently with Dr SF Loh of Thomson Fertility Centre.
I have not started any treatments with him yet as he suggest us to try naturally.
He has got good reviews and often appears on TV.
Although he did forget I had lap surgery with him o.0
maybe because i venture thru and forth his 2 clinics

if you are looking for specialist who you recommend you what to eat...what supps to take, I don't think Dr Loh practices that.
unless he did tests on you and realise you need some medication to help you along.

An acquaintance of mine got pregnant with Dr Ann Tan @ Paragon
but the same acquaintance told me that Dr Ann is more of a cold person
 
Hi ladies,

I am back to this thread after ard 3.5years..now trying (but not really active) for #3. My #1 came after 7years of marriage! But surprisingly #2 came quite fast.. now #3 I have a feeling it's gonna be hard again...haiz... I am now on my 2ww.. and the feeling is damn sian..haha..
 
Guess the clear blue pregnancy test is really accurate. Failed my first IUI.

Any ideas how to prepare the body before the 2nd IUI? I wonder why doctors dont recommend IVF straight. Age js catching up. I will be 35 next year.
you can tell your doctor about your concerns. at least that is what we are doing now with our doctor.
