Which tests are the best ones to get. I want to start doing this. I have no idea what it is like or anything like that. I live in the UK now, and when I went to NY in May I went to my OB and he said he would start me on clomid, so I want to go to the dr. here. Frustrated as I don't know any good doctors here. Ugh!!

Re: OPK
What I suggest you do is go to WH Smiths and buy a book called Taking Charge Of Your Fertility. Then go to Boots or Superdrug and get the Cleablue Easy Fertility Monitor, it is about 100 quid and the 3 month supply of sticks to pee on is about 20 quid. Read the book, you will find it very informative and hopefully it will answer some of your questions.
As for Doctors I would just go to Google and see what is available in your area. Good luck

Re: OPK
I use pharmacy name brand OPKs, too. They seem to be sensitive enough for me.
Good luck!

I think that is the one that Professor Robert Winston is at, he was involved with the first ever "test tube baby" Louise Brown. He recently made a very interesting tv series in the UK called "A Child At All Costs" which followed quite a few couples that were doing IVF for different reasons, my Mum & Dad taped the whole series and sent it to me, it was facinating.
