    Hey, I'm new on this forum and this is probably one of my first ones on this or any other forum. I usually like to read what people have to say and look at them describing their experiences has made me want to reach out and share mine as well. I want to share my experiences will the inability to have children. That, essentially, I am infertile. I only found out about my condition, some time after i got married. I was not expecting to hear such negatively, life altering news that early on in my married life. A year after I got married, my husband and I tried having children and half a year into it, we came up short. So, after begining to worry a bit, we went to the doctors to check up our situation and to put to rest the reasons why we were unable to conceive. And so we did, after having to give a couple of tests. The doctors informed us that I was unable to conceive. The issue lay in the lining of my uterus and that, it was so thin that the pregnancy would be lost before the egg could take. So, it goes without saying that I was devastated. As was my husband, who was the most helpful in all of this. He helped me keep it together. We went for alternative methods soon after and we found ourselves in an IVF related clinic. Right now, I am awaiting the go ahead from the doctors. They will tell us if I am viable enough for the egg collection process. I am very worried and very nervous. I hope it turns out alright. Anyway, thanks for reading!

    Hello hun! I'm so sorry you faced infertility. It so nice to see you didn't give up! I think this's great idea to go to fertility clinic. I hope fertility specialists will help you to become a mother. I had 3 miscarriages. Doctors advised us to turn to surrogacy. We're currently in our journey. I'm so glad my dh and I kept going and now we are on our way to become parents. Good luck dear!

    hi mandy, you can find a lot of women here fighting the same battles on different battlefields. Do not worry you are not alone. Although I was not diagnosed with infertility fate had it written for me. I was born my first child until I got in an accident. The accident damaged all my internal organs and due to the baby, i was carrying all my reproductive organs had been damaged beyond repair. I woke up 9 days later and for the past 4 to 6 months I always contemplate not waking up at all. I have found hope once again through these surrogacy programs and clinics and I am currently hopeful to try them out. wish me luck.

    hello there!I am sure that must have tried all the tests there and then moved to surrogacy.One of my friends was facing the same issues of infertility and was unable to bear a child for many years but finally, she was able to extend her family, she took resort to surrogacy as well and now she has two really beautiful daughters.From her experience, i would suggest you to look for the best clinics out there and to choose the most reasonable one which supplies most of the facilities and you must look all over the world for them.

    Hi mandy! I am so sorry for all your troubles. I m so glad to see that you're still standing straight and strong. I was also a victim of infertility, but Surrogacy helped me during this time, and the support of my partner and family made it all easy for me. Don't worry hon! everything will be fine. You will get pregnant and you will have a perfect family too! Good luck!

    Hey Mandygleeson! I hope you're doing great. Going for IVF was a great decision as it will allow you to get pregnant much more easily. By easy I mean there would be more chance. As your lining it thin previously it was difficult for an embryo to develop on its own. However, now through IVF, the procedure will be done in the lab. The embryo will be placed right in the uterus. Best of luck. I hope the treatment works out in the first time. Just be positive! Maint a healthy life and hope for the best. Do keep us updated.

    Hey Mandygleeson! Hope you are doing great.
    I am sorry to know about your infertility. It is really a life changing thing. It shatters you completely. The dream of being a mum, is the dream you begin to see when you are a young girl. Knowing that your dream cannot be fulfilled is heart wracking.
    But I am glad to hear that you have a supporting partner. In such a situation you need support. And you had that. Its awesome.
    You will soon be mum. You will have a perfect family.
    Don't be nervous. You will have a happy ending.
    Wish you lots of luck.
    Stay blessed.

    he there! infertility indeed is very depressing.Getting to know about it sooner or later breaks you apart and a person feels as such the life has ended for them.i ma myself infertile and I had to go through a lot after I got to know about it.First, my HUSBAND had a shock and he tried a lot to make me feel better and feel like it does not matter.I went to yoga, meditation etc type of stuff to cope up with my mental health it helped a little bit.After that, the family pressure kicked ina nd seriously hat was disappointing at how rude people could be even of your family.But my DH supported me throughout and now he has suggested a new option of surrogacy to me and we are very much excited to look into it.A friend of mine also guided me about it as she has gone through it two times.We are getting to know more and more day by day and now I am getting better mentally as well.As my long lost dream of having a family is going to fulfill really soon and I am going to feel better day by day.The main thing you must remember is that never lose hope.If a door closes many more open up.May your door open soon.
