[quote=Anonymous]If you haven't had an initial infertility evaluation, then he'll also probably fully explain the tests they do for both female and male (if applicable) partners and put in the orders for you to get that testing done starting with your next cycle. They likely will include bloodwork and antral follicle count (done by transvaginal ultrasound during morning monitoring hours, which at GW are 7:00-7:45 AM, first come first serve) and an HSG. You'll meet with your assigned nurse after your consult with Dr. F. The nurse will give you instructions on the timing of these tests and probably a handful of other information. The nurse I met with just blew through everything, without writing anything down, leaving me hopelessly confused, so I asked her to stop, backup, and go through it all with me slowly so I could understand each of the steps and what days they needed to happen. So if that happens to you, make sure you speak up loud and clear!

Finally, if you have a partner, take him/her with you if at all possible.[/quote]
