Fingers crossed
That my Prolactin level comes out to be ok. If so then the Dr. said I can use FertilAid. Which will hopefully bring on AF or get me a BFP.

I didn't know what it was till today lol. It is a hormone to do with our pituitary gland. The nurse said that it will determine if I'm "fertile" or not. We shall see!!

Sorry for bombarding with questions, but I seem to learn something new about fertility and TTC every day

prolactin is the hormone that the body produces when you are breastfeeding. from what i remember offhand its what causes nursing women to not get AF, but still ovulate. If you have high prolactin and aren't nursing it can be a fertility issue and also cause anovulation because i think (dont quote me on this one) it can suppress FSH.

How do you know to check for that? Are there symptoms? Again, I apologize for crashing this thread with my own questions, but I've never heard of this.

Don't be sorry. Its true...we do all learn from each others stories/experiences. It all started the other day when someone posted about FertilAid. Since I haven't gotten AF since February I did some research and felt that this may help bring on AF or at least get me ovulating before having to take Provera. My DH was a little nervous about me starting something without speaking with the Dr. Sooooo I called the Dr. and she said that its fine for me to take FertilAid as long as my Prolactin level is normal. If it isn't normal than I have to take a medicine to regulate it. If it is normal than she said I can try it out and hope for AF.
