Hi and Welcome to the board.

First off let me just say that the fact that you DID respond to clomid is awesome. Some women do and some women don't. Those of us that didn't respond to clomid had to move onto injectables. While its nice that you're pretty much guaranteed to ovulate on the injectable it is extremely expensive if insurance doesn't cover.

If you're not comfortable doing the HSG test just yet I wouldn't worry about it. I was told by my first Dr. before moving to an RE that if I responded to clomid she wanted to me to try it 6 times at the dosage that worked for us. So if I were you I would give the clomid a few more chances if you even need to. Clomid basically makes you ovulate like you would if you didn't have issues. And many "normal" couples have to try 6 months to a year before conceiving
.
If you do get to the point that you get the HSG, try not to let it worry you too much. There are so many horror stories out there about it and I swear some people just like to scare the heck out of others. When I had mine I honestly felt nothing during the procedure, I was actually shocked when the Dr. said we were done and I could get up. I was a nervous wreck before and then in just a few seconds it was over. I know it can be painful for some but it can also be completely painless too. I will say that I did have some cramping after the procedure as I was walking out to my vehicle but it was nothing unbearable.

As far as the emotional aspect of this whole thing it completely normal to feel upset, sad, angry, depressed, however you need to feel don't let anyone tell you to feel differently. Of course you're going to feel disappointed and sad when you get your hopes up and then not get the news you were hoping for. We've all been there and its fine. Its almost impossible not to get your hopes up. Trust me, I've been there plenty of times. I've had high hopes only to result in negatives, I've had a m/c, I've had a chemical pregnancy and no matter how many times you go through it, it still hurts. Just take time for yourself so you can get mentally and physically ready to keep trying if that's what you and your dh decide to do.

Good luck!View Thread
