Proxeed woman

[Purplewitch18]

We saw the fertillity dr for the first time today. Things are worse than i thought. My tubes are ‘wavy’ but open, and i have half the eggs left i should for my age, im 39. I have a child who is 4, she said my tubes have probably got worse with age which is why im not catching this time. Its been 18 months. She said best chance is ive but since we cant afford ivf to keep trying and take proxeed.

I got home and threw all my ovulation and pregnancy tests away as in my head now i cant take any more. She didnt say i cant get pregnant but its obvious my time is limited and the chances are very slim.

My other half wants to try with the proxeed, but i cant see the point.

Am i right in giving up? Dont even know how i feel i just dont want this cloud hanging over me anymore its to mentally and emotionally destroying.

I'm sorry to hear this, hun. God loves you poor thing you've been through quite a lengthy time waiting..That's tough to face. I've never experienced using proxeed. but since ivf is out of the question for you, i'd give this a try. as this was your dr's advice, none the one taken out of the blue. Your dr must know the field, right? I did some research on it. It's said Proxeed Women works by:

Supporting normal hormonal activity. Maintaining the quality of eggs. Encouraging fertilisation, healthy cell division and the implantation of the fertilised egg. To me sounds: why not to try! I think I know why you've taken all your OPKs away. I believe it will help to keep sane not looking t those sticks at least for some time.

I believe you didn't give up. Neither you are giving up. this is just some tough moment you're currently having. You might need some time to recover emotionally and then proceed with trying. I believe you're still capable to do it!! All my positive thoughts going you way Xx

Thankyou so much for your lovely reply 😘, and youre right, a couple of days later and im doing everything i can to improve egg health, and health over all. Ive even cut out all foods and products with chemical and gone all natural. Ivf may not be impossible for us now also. But we have decided to try for a few months and then look into it. Friday was a soul destroying day, but now i realise there are things i can do xx
