Tanya's Story

Well like any other young woman I got married and wanted to start a family. I found out after I got married that I had polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Fast forward about two years and my son was born. Now I'm 29 soon to be 30 the end of this month and the baby bug bit again. I so want to have another child. I came to Penn Fertility Care in hopes of good news.

Today I got a mix. Yesterday I had a HSG test and just received the results, both of my tubes are open and everything else looks good with the exception of a little scar tissue in my left tube. I will go for an insemination in the next few weeks and I'm currently taking clomid.

Hopefully this will work because I just can't afford IVF with the price being so high and my insurance won't cover it. No need to say that my spirits in spite of the good side of things are very low. But in the mean time I've been doing a lot of praying.
