Re: Fertility doctor question
how long have you been TTC?
are there any known problems on your or your DHs end?
I would take an hour or so and head to borders or someplace and check out some books--- taking charge of your fertility or some of the other ones- I'm sure they have ?s to ask your dr in them and you could just write down the ones you want to ask on a piece of paper. HTH!

Re: Fertility doctor question
Dont be nervous...you'll feel so much better once you go. Like you have a plan of action. Do you have a diagnosis yet? They'll probably start by taking blood from you and maybe doing a sperm analysis on your husband. My main thing is I would ask the doctor "given our situation what is the best route for us to take?" And just ask away from there. Even bring a notepad with you to write stuff down. Thats what I did.

Re: Fertility doctor question
I bumped MrsMessinas thread also...it's a lot easier to get the questions off here as opposed to spending hours at a bookstore.
You can also go to IVFConnections.com if you want further help.
