Karen's Story
I am 26 years-old and have a 5-year-old son. I started trying to conceive for our second child at the end of June 2008. I got a [positive result] BFP on 7/17/08, but 8/4/08 an ultrasound showed it was ectopic. I’ve been trying to conceive since and nothing.
I used over the counter ovulation predictor kits, regularly took my temperature, and used a microscope all at the same time to detect ovulation, and only detected it once in December 2008. I can’t find any doctors who want to really help me quicker.
In October of 2009 I will be getting laparoscopy done if I’m not pregnant by then. I really feel I should get a hysterosalpingogram (HSG) done first because of the ectopic pregnancy. It’s one of those instinct feelings. So I’m currently looking for an HSG to be done. I have three sources I have to call yet and if they won’t help I’m done trying to conceive until the summer is over. This makes me very sad.
