Guest guest Posted October 9, 1999 Report Share Posted October 9, 1999 dear Krista I went to the doctor on thursday afternoon. I told him all my problems with AF, and about us wanting to ttc. again soon, so he did an internal (YUCK!!) aswell as a sonar. Nothing abnormal showed up, so he reconed that my body is just tired of all the artificial hormones. I have always had problems with AF and the pill. He suggested that I come off the pill now. He prescribes some antibiotics just incase there is an infection somewhere that he couldn't pick up, and some other stuff called Pixicam. It apparently cleans out your uterus and tubes, incase there is any underlying endometriosis or scarring that would cause the constant bleeding. It also just ups your chances of conceiving, as it prepares your insides for pregnancy. He prescribed prenatal vitamins as well, for the folic acid. Then he said that we should use a spermicidal jelly for the next 2 months or so, untill we want to ttc. and also to give my body a chance to heal itself. If the bleeding won't stop by the end of next week, then he wants me to go for a HSG., otherwise he said to try for about 8 months, and if nothing happens, then he will do a HSG. as well as some other tests, and then we would have to start thinking of taking another course of action like stims. or such. My chances of getting pregnant again easily is very slim, which is why he doesn't want to leave us for too long before looking further into it. Anyway, I felt quite good about the meeting, he was very sympathetic, and answered all my questions, so I feel positive about the future, and very excited about ttc. again. We will see what happens. I am just glad to be stopping the bcp's after all these years. the dh. also seems to be excited about the prospects. Now I just have to fugure out a way to make myself wait till December. Let me know what you think of the appointment. take care Sonja >From: KCHERUB@... >Reply-To: ectopicpregnancyegroups >To: ectopicpregnancyegroups >Subject: Re: my story >Date: Thu, 7 Oct 1999 08:36:05 EDT > >Sonja, > >Did someone already answer this: Pelvic Inflammatory Disease.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 1999 Report Share Posted October 9, 1999 Sonja, I must tell you that your doctor sounds like a very wonderful, to the point, and knowledgeable person. I can imagine how confident you must feel to have a " plan " . I totally agree with his recommendations, and it seems that you are, too! It is the doctors who leave open-ended questions that worry me! Thankfully, your doctor is NOT like that! Take care, Krista Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
