After eight months of trying to get pregnant, I learned I had 'next to nothing' levels of progesterone and needed to see an infertility specialist.
So, we ponied up and went to a specialist in July, who gave us more in-depth information. Not only do I have no progesterone, but I also don't have any hormones (Kim begs to differ) that contribute to my body naturally ovulating.
In late July, I had to have an HSG dye test, where they inject dye into your uterus to see if there are any abnormalities of organs, which might be contributing to the issue. I had no obvious signs, but the specialist recommended another procedure to be sure, as one of my fallopian tubes looked as if it wasn't working properly.
August came around, and I had a laproscopy, which determined my body favors one tube over the other, but no defects. This was great news, but I had a hard time recovering from the surgery. It took me about two weeks to be back at 100 percent. Poor Kim... he was my God-send!
