I have just finished my third round ...Dr. Malpani,<br /><br />I have just finished my third round of clomid, estradiol, and progesterone medications with no success. I am currently seeing an OBGYN who has not monitored me through any of the cycles. I have a history of one ovarian ectopic pregnancy, which was known to have caused scarring. I was also diagnosed with another possible ectopic pregnancy. It was terminated early because my progesterone levels were very low and my HCG levels stopped doubling. My husband and I have been actively trying to conceive for a little over a year with no success. We have had two chemical pregnancies but no further luck. My OBGYN has suggested a laparoscopy as my next treatment. I am concerned that it would just be pointless. Should I be seeing a RE? Would you recommend a lap before recommending IUI or IVF treatments? Also, I am 25 years old and otherwise in great health. I have had a hysterosalpingogram, which showed clear tubes. My husband's sperm analysis came back fine. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. <br /><br />Thanks,<br />B---B---https://www.blogger.com/profile/07577648844916432314noreply@blogger.com
