Infertility Reviews

I always had a fear I was infertile so started trying for a baby with little optimism. After a year of trying I went with my husband to the doctors. My husband was sent for a sperm count which came back fine . I got some blood tests as I did have some symptoms of PCOS but that came back clear. The doctor said that he wouldn't do anything ...  Read the complete review

So when I was getting older and in relationships, the natural thing was children. The relationships ended and it often made me think during the time I was ...  Read the complete review

Jeez, I had to think for a while there, try to come up with an intro to this 'opinion'. Y'know what though, I couldn't.

Maybe ...  Read the complete review

I’ve been researching Chlamydia and ...  Read the complete review

My periods were never regular, from the time I had my very first one. Sometimes I would go 6 months between each one. The doctors always put it down to stress - stress of growing up, stress of exams, stress of loosing my mum and later stress of getting married. Another thing that troubled me during my adolescence was the excess dark hair ...  Read the complete review

I wished I had not given it up and it only took me 4 months to realise this but it was still too late... I was 13 and I was the best swimmer for my age group in my county.

Infertility is a very difficult topic to write an opinion on, as you know nothing of the person reading it. I just wanted to share my experience with the FAM-Fertility Awareness Method. I have been charting for 3 months now, and I'm totally addicted to it. To get started, go out and buy a copy of Toni Weschlers 'Taking ...  Read the complete review

My husband and I decided to try for a baby from the end of 1996 with no luck. We presumed that by the time we got married I would be a few months pregnant, nothing more than a few months mind, as I still wanted to be able to fly on holiday. We flew to The Dominican Republic and got married in September 1997, still not pregnant. Every ...  Read the complete review
