I went for my preliminary fertility tests today. Blood tests and two very comfortable *snort* ultrasounds.
I love that I had a very kind and very chatty ultrasound tech, I showed a little bit of knowledge of what he was looking for so he told me what he was doing, and what results he found.
So, I know that I do not have Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)! That my endometrium (uterine lining) is exactly where it should be at this stage in my cycle, and that I have an ok number of follicles growing.
My right overy had 19 follicles, and only 7 on the left. Stoopid left ovary. Google says that that number is below the range of normal, but my nursey mother in law says that there is no normal number really. I'll wait until my appt on wednesday with my Ob/Gyn and see what he thinks. I'll also see what my hormone levels are when I see him.
I'm kindof excited! I was about 90% sure that I would have PCOS. And I definately don't! I also don't have any cysts or fibroids, and my uterine structure is just fine. I'm hoping there's something slightly wrong with my hormone levels or something that can be medically supplemented, and that there's not a problem with Hubby's sperm. I'm not sure if he could take that :p
