As im new to the forum (and driving myself crackers with thinking - 'what if this meant this' and 'does this mean that' etc etc) I thought i'd share my story and ask for any comments/opinions (I hope you dont mind me sharing all this)
Im 28 years old been married for 3 years and been not so intentally TTC for all of those three years. (we'd been not trying but not preventing for a couple of years prioir to that also) As nothing had 'happened' last year I was referred to the hospital for tests and was diagnosed with PCOS and endometriosis. I had some ovarian drilling done and some lazer treatment on my endometriosis, I was given 6 months to try again - still no bump!
I was started on 50mg of Clomifene two cycles ago and it didnt cause me to ovulate
The following cycle I was given 100mg of clomifene and my day 21 test showed my progesterone levels as being 137 - which im told indicates that I ovulated last month
I was over the moon to hear this and couldnt contain myself and went straight out to buy a pregnancy test, I was over the moon to get a faint positive, I did lots of reading on the web. the following day I did another test which was negative, subsequent tests have also been negative.
So 2 weeks back I began my third cycle on Clomifene 100mg, I did a OPK on Day 10 (Sunday) and got a positive
(not much 
for me and hubby these last few days i can tell you 
) Anyway I've been trying to follow the SMEP (i think thats how you forumites refer to it) and im hoping and praying that this could be my lucky month. I just feel like it wont ever happen and im becoming increasingly desperate.
Anyway waffle over and im not really sure what im asking but I guess id be interested to know if anyone has been in a similar situation and has any success stories to share.
Please and thank you in advance
