Thanks for listening...

Long story short, after my miscarriage in Jan, I've been having the hardest time concieving and its breaking my heart!!!

Doctor says not to worry just to keep trying...

Ugh, I am, I just want to cry in her arms saying "I am, I am."

I know you friends on here know what its like to be me...

Here is just a couple of questions that might help me analyize my situation a little better.

1. How is a short luteal phase corrected?
2. Whats the ratio with Clomid working and Clomid cause hyper stimulation?
3. Is the average dosage for Clomid 100mg?
4. Having gotten pregnant, then miscarriage, does it mean I have somewhat of a better chance concieving in the future?
5. Taking Provera and it actually kinda correcting my cycles, does that give better chance for concieving and tracking my cycles?

Please help me with these questions, I feel like I'm losing hope and really scared and depressed about it all.

" I am sorry you are having a difficult time. I can only answer a couple of your questions. I don't know what the ratio of using clomid and it causing hyperstimulation is, I know that I have used it during two cycles and have gotten pregnant both times. I used 50mg and produced 3 follicles, resulting in a twin pregnancy and I used 100mg and it resulted in 5 follicles resulting in a single baby. I am not sure if m/cing gives you a better chance of conceiving, it does let you know that you are able to get pregnant. I have heard that you are more fertile the first few months after a miscarriage. I haven't used provera and know very little about it. I know how difficult this is but try to stay positive... if you have any further questions, please feel free to email me. I will answer them the best I can. "

" I'm sorry, I dont know the answers to your questions. I just wanted to say that I also miscarried in Jan. and haven't been able to get pregnant since. I know it's heartbreaking and frustrating, but hang in there. It's not unusual to have to try for a few months before you finally get pregnant. "

" Hi AJ, I was in the same situation you are. In my case the short luteal phase was corrected by taking Prometrium (progesterone) 200mg twice a day. I was on clomid for 7 months, but Im not sure what the ratio is, and I can't remember what dose I was on. I found out that I was pregnant in March and then miscarried this month, but I have a uterine fibroid that might have contributed. The doctor told me that I have to wait for 2 normal cycles before I can start trying again. And, from what I have read, one miscarriage does not affect your chance of getting pregnant and having a normal pregnancy. If you have had more than 2 miscarriages is when I think they say it might be a problem. When I was on clomid I used to have very regular cycles, so hopefully that will help you. "
