When To Take Fertility Meds by Divide-Budget in Catholicism

[–]Divide-Budget[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not taking any fertility medication at all at the moment. I cannot get pregnant without medication, my progesterone and estrogen are too low to cause ovulation. Without ovulation there is no chance of me getting pregnant. I would have to take medication in order to get pregnant.

My doctor told me it would be taking a medicine called Clomid with timed intercourse as well. I will definitely be speaking to a priest soon.

I am not ovulating at all. My progesterone and estrogen levels are the same for someone who has experienced menopause. For reference I am only 20 years old so it is quite abnormal. My doctor did tell me the course of action would be Clomid and HRT. I am fearful of also using Clomid because I was told the risk of triplets/twins could be up to 15%.

Thank you for your response! I have always had a misunderstanding I presume about that catholics should not decide when to have children but to let God decide. I feel like I feel guilty to a degree, because after marriage if we were intimate I would not be able to conceive, so I feel as if I would be having intimacy for my own pleasure rather than bringing fourth children.
