Well we are back from our short trip to Toronto, and the end result was not what we expected but still good news. We met with probably the nicest Doctor I have ever met and I work in a hospital. He is a reproductive specialist that works at TCART, and he spent 3 hours with us explaining all the processes and options available to us. J got an ultrasound to check her ovaries and uterus, everything looks good except there was something odd with her left tube. He wants J to have a hysterosalpngogram or Sonohystergram to ensure that both tubes are open. After we spoke about all the options, the Doc suggested that we start with IUI instead of going straight to IVF. He said that because J's uterus is looking good, and because she is still young it would be good to try this first. Next cycle J needs to get blood work on day 3, and if everything looks good with that and if her left tube isnt blocked then we are good to try the cycle after that. For the first try we are going to travel back to Ontario, we are going to use Letrozole for egg stimulation and we will have to be in Ontario for 4 days for the IUI. We picked out possible sperm donors last night, we decided to go through Xytex because they have a good list of Canadian ccompliant donors. We are well on our way, I dont think I will ever be more excited for J's period to come....I am counting down the days
Sounds like it was a great trip!!! Good luck with the countdown to AF showing herself!!!
