Stupid effing ovaries!

When I want them to work, they're useless... When I want them to stay asleep, they decide to put out follies anyways...grrrrrrr

So, RE put me on BC about 2 months ago to get my TNF up. Now, that it's finally in the normal range, I went in today for an US to get the all clear to start stimming on Friday. Of course, I have to have two follies on the right and one on the left (all between 10-11mm). Starting stimms for IVF Friday is officially out now. :(

Instead, I'm on a "mini stim" to move along these follies, have AF, then June 20th hopefully start for real. DH and I will be trying this weekend since I'll be getting a trigger on Friday or Saturday (after US on Thursday), but with the luck we've had I'm not holding my breath.

Sorry for the vent, just needed to share my frustrations with my fellow 3T ladies.

@sweetpotato123‌ ... Looks like we won't be cycle buddies after all :( I've got everything crossed for you that this is it though!!!!

    That's super frustrating.  Did you talk about a plan for next cycle to keep those fuckers quiet, since apparently birth control isn't enough?

    Yes, once AF makes her appearance, then I'm going to be started on a higher dose BC, but only for a couple of days until my RE starts his office's next round of IVF'ers.


    Thanks for the kind words everyone... Its so stinking hard to be patient!
