TTC app (6 months in)

Does anyone else get really anxious before doctors appointments? I now do even if it has nothing to do with ends. I sometimes just feel like i shouldn't be there or i'm taking up time i shouldn't be - i think this is left over from the many times i have been told this. I have a great new doctor who has dealt with me since i was diagnosed (after 8 years and lots of great advice on this forum). I got married in December but we started TTC 6 months ago. My partner went into the doctors this week to get info for his fertility testing as we took a sperm count test from online and it said it was irregular. I know these can be wrong but i knew we needed to be sure he was fine first.

I have my appointment to discuss whats next for myself in about half an hour and it probably doesn't help that I've had a bad pain day and that i got the announcement that my sister had her second child half an hour ago, but I feel so anxious and emotional. I'm really worried about being put on loads of hormones and going through all the prodding and pain again. Is there anyone who has been for this initial appointment? How did it go? What happened? do you get a referral or go through your GP to begin with.

Ugh, anyway, I am wishing you all a no pain day today and hope you're saving your spoons for something fun!

I hope ur appt went well, i know how hard it is and how emotional it can be.

We were referred to a fertility clinic thru gynaecologist after ttc for 1yr and then being diagnosed with endometriosis.

They were really nice & helpful and will go thru everything with u x
