Question Who else has Unexplained Infertility over age 35?

Hi to all!
I'm usually over on the Pregnancy Board, TTC Buddies thread, but often come here to visit and read all your inspiring posts.

I'm 38 and have been diagnosed with Unexplained Infertility. DH is 37. We've had all the pertinent bloodtests and a SA too. I've also had an HSG and an Endometrial Biopsy. Everything seems to be "normal".

It's so incredibly frustrating to be told there's no real reason not to conceive! At the moment I've had to hold off on TTC for 3 months due to the Rubella vaccination, which has been a real pain, as you can imagine!

In May we'll be giving it another shot. Doc says she'll put me on Clomid, although I do ovulate on my own. I have no children and neither does DH, so we're in a bit of a hurry to get pg! We've been married for 2 1/2 years, the exact time we've been TTC.

I do try to keep a positive attitude and am a believer in making things happen. I know I'll never give up! We are already on a list for IUI /IVF, as the National Health here is paying for everything, but the down side is the long waiting lists.

I so admire all of you who are having long and sometimes painful treatments. I really feel for you ladies! We are so lucky to have these boards where we can get information, laughs, vent or whatever.

Does anyone else have a similar situation to mine?

Since last 4yrs i have consulted many obgyn to know my problem.Before that i had very regular periods but since last 4yrs i started skipping 2-3times a year.The docs did various blood test,lap etc and came back with the answer...."everything is fine and within normal range".It was so frustrating not to know my problem and not getting pregnant even after trying for 2yrs.Last month i consulted an RE and after a trans-vaginal u/s he confirmed i had mild pcos.Though all my blood test,lap reports came back normal but i believed that there is definately something wrong with my body as i was not getting pregnant. So after 4 yrs i came to know my problem.
It is really very frustrating not to know your problem .Pl. don't give up hope. Wish u all the best.............
