Introduction
Hey all.
I've posted a couple times on the infertility and TTC forums - just wanted to formally introduce myself...
Name: Jocelyn (36)
DH: Tony (just turned 40)
TTC: not very long - we just got married in Feb 2014 and started trying on our honeymoon. I was on BCPs before the wedding because my estrogen levels are naturally low and my GYN was concerned about my bone health
RE: Dr Cohen at NSUH
Dx: I have "hypoestrogenism of undetermined origin." Basically, I don't ovulate on my own naturally - haven't had a "period" in over 5 years. The doc isn't sure why - I used to compete in fitness competitions back in my 20's and I would get my body fat down super low - its possible that my hormones never quite returned to normal, even though my body fat did...
Methods used: Did an IUI back in May (with Clomid, 50mg) - Dr Cohen couldn't get the magic stuff up there due to scar tissue around my cervix from a LEEP done a decade ago. So, I had a hysteroscopy in June which took care of that.
We did our second IUI (with clomid) yesterday and it went off without a hitch!! Beginning the dreaded TWW now.
Just to rant - this freaking Clomid has made me break out all over my chin and now its migrating to my jaw. I just want to put my shirt over my head and hide - haven't felt like this since I was 19!!. Bleh!!

Wishing you luck!!!!!!!! The 2ww is %)#*%)$* awful. 
Edited to add that clomid was pretty awful too. The heat flashes and constant sweating one minute and then being cold the next was awful. Bleh! Good luck!!!
