I'm 28 years old. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for over 2 1/2 years. No pregnancies. I went through several rounds of Clomid (50mg) and Premarin, with no success. I am now currently waiting for surgery. My right fallopian tube was diagnosed as a large hydrosalpinx, with cysts on both ovaries. (The hyrdosalpinx is a closed fallopian tube that is dilated and filled with fluid.) The fluids inside the tube are toxic and they are spilling back into my uterus, creating a toxic environment for the egg and sperm. Nothing can survive in that atmosphere....Embryos can't develop because the sperm and egg don't even get a chance to meet. The surgery I am going to have is called a Salpingectomy. The surgery is approximately 2 hours long with 3 different incisions. They will be removing my right fallopian tube completely. After the surgery is complete, I will be left with just my left fallopian tube and left ovary to try and conceive with. The fertility specialist believe that I may also have to get back on the fertility medications after surgery in order to continue trying to conceive.
So that is where I am today, now let's start where it all began....
