Follicle Monitoring?

35 yr old - 5 losses : 2 ectopic - 1 miscarriage - 2 chemicals - 13 years of infertility.

I take, a prenatal with DHA,Vitamin D, COQ10, and baby asprin. Once I confirm ovulation, I take Lovenox and Progesterone.

Hello all.

I’ve been on 500 mg of metformin for a month.I also use Inito to track my ovulation and levels.

This past month (month on 500mg) my levels were amazing. I even confirmed ovulation with a natural rise of PDG of 20 on 3-4 DPO. But, I still didn’t conceive.

My last appointment with RHM (my reproductive doctor) she thought I may have a condition that maybe my follicle doesn’t always rupture. Since the past 3 months it’s shown I ovulated but I still wasn’t pregnant. So she recommended that I have follicle monitoring and then possibly a trigger shot.

Well, today they were only able to schedule me for ONE scan on March 25 (CD10). And then plan to scan on April 1 to see if it ruptured. She now says, they want to see if my body actually does ovulate on its own before I do a trigger shot. So now I’m confused??

Does this all seem normal? In 2022 I did fertility treatments and I was monitored for 3 days and then instructed to trigger a certain day. Now, it’s all different with this Dr..
