We’ve been ttc for 6 months… I haven’t had a period for 3.
He thinks its his little men with "problems" as well as my messed up hormones (which the doctor won’t treat… he put me on the pill a couple of months ago before I start fertility treatment to regulate my hormones a bit, but he says I can’t start it til my next period, which I haven’t had).
My amazing fiance doesn’t moan about the struggle we’re having doing this, he says he loves me no matter what, but when we go out and see teenage mothers, or indeed any family with young children, I can see the hurt in his eyes, and the guilt is eating me up inside, as well as my inner hatred for myself.
I’m constantly getting cramps, but my GP just put it down to IBS and gave me pills. These cramps arise every two weeksish, but sometimes I get the odd twinge. My breasts sometimes get sore but not on a regular basis. I’m going to push the fact that I want a scan to see whether I’ve got ovarian cysts or cancer (worst case scenario), next time I go to GP, but he’ll probably just laugh it off like he usually does.
Btw, I really admire all the lovely people that have been trying for ages and never give up, you guys are the inspiration for me continuing this and not just throwing the towel in and giving up :)
Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with my man problems over this (I’m sure it’s not his little men, his father had 5 kids no problem lol), and natural ways of ttc, and increasing chances of ovulation? I have a balanced diet… although i sometimes have too much dairy products. I’m not overweight though, and I don’t have any other major health problems, other than my lack of periods… which runs in the family… but my mother and grandmother never had periods so irregular as mine.
I’m more relaxed about it now than I was, and I’ve stopped worrying so much, but I don’t want us to suffer any more trauma over this.
Help? :)
