Well, I don't have fibroids, at least. I hadn't been sure how to feel at first, because at least it would have been an answer, but Papa Bear had pointed out the possible complications from fibroids and I felt better about not having them. That still leaves no real answers about the extent of my current...experience, though, because it's symptoms beyond what is expected with endo. Best guess is hormone changes, but apparently there's not really much of any research on hormones in people who lose an ovary.
The answer about the fibroids was mostly washed away by the whole nightmare experience of the ultrasound, though. The last time I was lying on that table, I was being told that my baby no longer had a heartbeat. To make it worse, it was the same tech, and she didn't remember that fact until Papa Bear reminded her. She didn't even see in my chart about what happened last year, so she was asking me about why I didn't have a right ovary. At least the doctor said they have 2 ultrasound techs at this point, so if I get that far, I can ask for the other one.
Since I don't have fibroids, getting that far now looks to rest on Clomid. The doctor still wants me to get an HSG to make sure my remaining tube is clear, and it looks like we'll be doing that in September. Provided it's clear (or gets clear from the dye going through), we'll start Clomid after that. One thing we're not sure of is how much of a real LH surge I'm having to even trigger ovulation, since last month I had the line on the OPK get darker than it had been but not darker than the control line. But the doctor said if that's what's wrong, Clomid will help.
He did also say that Clomid tends to make people feel cranky and have less energy. For those who have tried it, what has your experience been?
