Re: UU

Hi Dee,

Hmmm...that's news to me...I've never heard of a UU only being able

to get pregnant by IUI. I'm on my second " natural " pregnancy.

Although, it took a good seven years! But, I also have

endometriosis " issues " . I was under the impression that I only have

half the chance of a " normal " woman conceiving with the anomaly

because only one ovary and tube are connected. (My endo adds to my

conception difficulties.)

I'm sure the other ladies can provide much more input than I--since

I have no experience with injectables, etc.

Dee,

I'm still trying to figure out why your doctor went straight to IUI?

I have a right UU and I got pregnant with my son the 1st month I

tried. I went on to lose him at 24 weeks though. I didn't know about

my uterus until after I had him. You shouldn't have any fertility

problems BECAUSE of your MA. Don't get me wrong, we can definitley

still have problems just like anybody else. Is your one tube open? I

don't understand why you aren't trying naturally. Best of luck to

you.

1 loss @ 24 weeks ~ Right UU
