Hi everyone. I am 37, I have an 8 year old daughter from a previous relationship. Met my DH and we married last July. He has no children at all
I'd had the mirena coil in for 5 years which was removed in Sept, but following irregular periods (which I had put down to being post coil) we only started TTC Dec.
However my AF has been very irregular since then cycle days 29, 14, 29, 60 - I skipped March completely ! And I keep experiencing abdominal pain, tiredness and nausea so GP referred me to a gynae (luckily I get free private through work so seen quickly).
Abnomality found in uterus on ultrasound - have a hysteroscopy and lapaoscopy tomorrow, although cons does not think this is serious and suspects a fibroid (had these twice before) or a polyp. Cons also took loads of bloods, for which I received the results yesterday and feel I have just been hit with a bat as I had a CD4 FSH of 25.8 !! All other tests were totally normal - L H and estrogen levels were spot on. Cons is "hoping" it is just a glitch - but I suspect he is just holding off the worse. I am not really sure what the normal levels of LH/estrogen with the high FSH level means - am new to all this and only just realising how high that is for a CD4 test.
Anyway have to go back for more bloods on CD21 and also CD2 of my next cycle (assuming my next one turns up) ! In the vain hope its a one off. Not too hopeful as I recently discovered my Mum had menopause at 36. I don't have too many other symptoms apart from the tired/nausea stuff. But no flushes, sweats etc nothing
Finding it a bit hard to talk about at the moment. My Mum and MIL don't really know what to say - I probably wouldn't either in their position. Oh apart from the obligatory "well you have one already". Doesn't help when DH has none.
Anyway still trying to get my head around all this but any help would be much appreciated
