    About Me

    I am 38 years old, and me and my husband have been trying to have another baby for about 9 years now! I have 2 children and I guess I am in the group of those who suffer from secondary infertility! We have 2 beautiful children and didn't have a problem getting pregnant with either of them, but since they messed with my thyroid, I haven't been able to conceive again. It is very frustrating, but we keep on trying! I won't give up!

    • Close Infertility, Secondary

      I am now 38 years old and me and my husband have been trying to conceive another child for about 8 years now. We have 2 children already, and are in the "Secondary Infertility" group. They diagnosed me with a thyroid disorder shortly after the birth of our 2nd child and since then, we haven't been able to conceive. It is frustrating because the doctors can't seem to figure out what the problem is. I have had various treatments, but so far no luck. Any ideas?

      Treatments

      Clomid Somewhat Helpful
      I had a great ovulation cycle, but no pregnancy resulted.
      hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) Somewhat Helpful
      I had great follicles, great uterine lining, but did not result in a pregnancy.
      Ovulation Predictor Kit Working / Worked
    • Open Hypothyroidism

      I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism about 11 years ago and they gave me the radioactive iodine. I then became hypothyroid and have been taking meds ever since. However, the frustrating part for me is that since then, I have not been able to conceive. I have been through various fertility treatments, but so far nothing has worked. Has anyone out there had a similar problem? If so, is there anything I or the doctors may be overlooking that may help me conceive? I am feeling frustrated!

      Treatments

      Cytomel Working / Worked
      seems to work, but sometimes my heart rate seems a little funny. Not sure if this is the cause, but it seemed to start when I started taking this.
      Synthroid Working / Worked
      Works, but seems to work better in combination with cytomel.
    • Open Hyperhidrosis

      I suffered from hyperhydrosis since I was a kid, but never realized exactly what I had until I went to see a doctor as an adult. I have had surgery for this which has helped my right hand. It is my dominant hand and no longer sweats at all. However, I do have a problem now with sweating in other places at times.

    • Open Breast Cancer

      For the past year I have had 3 mammograms due to finding lumps in my breasts. With the first 2 mammograms I had to also have an ultrasound and fine needle aspiration. Both came back negative for cancer. Now I have the lumps again and they have ordered a biopsy on my right side and a fine needle aspiration on my left. I'm a little scared.
