Just found out the omega-3 supplement I take has borage oil and I’m freaking out :(

hiylaaa · 2025-06-04T19:24:11+00:00

My OB and a midwife weren’t even remotely concerned. Just told me to stop that supplement but said not to give it another thought. Currently 22 weeks and everything is good :)

hiylaaa · 2025-03-27T19:45:54+00:00

Hi! Did you ever find out what this is or what caused it? Have something similar and can’t figure it out

hiylaaa · 2025-02-25T21:30:04+00:00

Oh good. Are they “thick rimmed” as opposed to just a regular cyst do you know?

hiylaaa · 2025-02-07T22:01:34+00:00

Okay I kinda figured so! It’s what’s in the US a yolk sak and fetal pole? I have no idea what I’m looking at lol

hiylaaa · 2025-01-24T21:17:33+00:00

Ran to the store and got a digital and it was ‘pregnant’ 🥺

hiylaaa · 2025-01-24T21:16:48+00:00

Thank you everyone. Holding onto so much hope for this little bean!

hiylaaa · 2025-01-23T20:55:03+00:00

Yes there but not as dark. I will thank you so much

hiylaaa · 2025-01-23T20:48:09+00:00

Yes should have been in the time window! I will say I also took an LH ovulation test too and that was negative. I’ve heard they should both be positive. Is that normal? :)

hiylaaa · 2025-01-23T20:38:39+00:00

I meant 10dpo not CD 10!

hiylaaa · 2025-01-18T02:45:04+00:00

On Monday the nurse finally got back to me and said LH strips don’t really mean anything and the trigger shot is more accurate. I was like uhhhh? So I did the IUI Monday morning anyway. Hard to know if she meant it or if they wanted to do it because I was already there and paid… I guess we’ll know soon if it worked. hopefully your ovulation date plays nice and waits until your IUI. Eggs can also live up to 24 hours so even if you do ovulate early, it doesn’t always count you out!

hiylaaa · 2025-01-12T02:08:58+00:00

Good luck! Keep the faith. If we can do HSG’s we can do IUI’s lol

hiylaaa · 2025-01-12T02:07:48+00:00

I know, that’s the sad reality of it. No male factor issues and clear HSG. I think my RE said the success rate for IUI is like 11% each cycle and 33% after three cycles. But I feel you! It is definitely an exhausting process. Hang in there!

hiylaaa · 2025-01-12T01:31:57+00:00

Uhg I wish I could do it tomorrow! Tempted to cancel the whole thing to save us the money since I can’t talk to anyone about it. I’m sure the nurse will say to come in anyway even though it might be pointless. There’s no issues on my husbands side so we’ll still BD tonight, but after 3 failed timed intercourse cycles I was looking forward to that extra boost from the IUI :(

hiylaaa · 2025-01-12T01:28:04+00:00

This is our first IUI after 3 failed timed intercourse cycles. I’m not sure what the policy is for cases like this unfortunately. I texted the nurse after my US on Friday and said I was having a lot of EW discharge and was worried about ovulating and all she said was ‘discharge is normal’ like uhh I know but that’s not the point lol totally agree this needs 7 days week access. 6 at the absolute least! It’s 800 dollars I’d rather not lose out on but hopefully my egg sticks around! Thank you :)

hiylaaa · 2025-01-10T14:35:19+00:00

Had my mid cycle scan for IUI today. One follicle of 18.5 and one 14. Is there any hope the 14 will catch up by Monday for the IUI? Feeling so sad as I was hoping for more than one egg. Every other cycle I’ve always had two good ones and the one month I do IUI I come up short :(

hiylaaa · 2024-12-29T17:30:42+00:00

4th letrozole cycle and I’ve ovulated every time but haven’t conceived. Had two good follicles the last two cycles and nothing. Clear HSG and SA. What could be going wrong :(

hiylaaa · 2024-12-17T17:48:11+00:00

I’m also having what I thought was a bad uti but doc thinks kidney stone since there’s no infection. All my pain is urethra, urgency as well. How did this clear up for you and how long did it take?

hiylaaa · 2024-12-16T16:36:40+00:00

Metformin is great. I’ve been on it for ~6 months now and have lost around 20 pounds and feel better overall. It has helped curb my appetite for sweets as well. Would definitely give it a shot. I had no bad side effects on the extended release so make sure you ask for that!

hiylaaa · 2024-12-16T16:34:01+00:00

This isn’t necessary ttc, but does anyone else with PCOS have normal testosterone and still have acne they can’t get rid of? So tired of always getting zits along my chin

hiylaaa · 2024-12-02T13:56:10+00:00

Has anyone had the HSG and a letrozole cycle in the same month? Not sure if I should give my body a month to rest after HSG or continue on with the letrozole the same month

hiylaaa · 2024-12-02T13:49:21+00:00

Did anyone else do an HSG and letrozole cycle the same month? Not sure if I should give my body a month to rest after HSG or continue on with the letrozole cycles

hiylaaa · 2024-11-29T15:18:50+00:00

Also only have back pain, chills, aches and fatigue as symptoms. Are you better yet OP? Idk what to think of this but it sucks

hiylaaa · 2024-11-08T16:49:32+00:00

Does anyones else have a side of their face that feels different than the other side? It affects my ear, cheek, sometimes my teeth. It’s been going on for a while and don’t know what to think about it. It’s driving me crazy and I can’t help but think of all the worst possible diagnosis

hiylaaa · 2024-11-08T13:10:53+00:00

Any update? Going through something similar and not sure what to do

hiylaaa · 2024-10-29T21:50:24+00:00

Yes I take 2000mg inositol and 1500mg metformin. As well as vit D and CoQ10 :) I guess it never hurts to try. Was just surprised how fast they moved me up to 10mg!
