If I do decide to go ahead with a cycle, it will likely be in the spring, because of my schedule and some financial issues. I will post back when I am ready, as I'd like to keep someone company, and would like some company too!

Hi,

I know what you mean with having a cycle buddy. I USED to have a cycle buddy but when she became pregnant she decided this board was NOT for her anymore! Oh, I have her e-mail addy in case I want too keep in touch. I'm really upset about it.

Where is my 100% support?

So are you saying this is the board is only for "hopefuls" ?
Ha, only kidding. I'm happy for your old buddy, but I imagine she has a lot of other things on her mind at the moment.
I visit this board now and then just to check in, and I sort of like it that there is no pressure on me right now. I"m not too sure how 'nice" I'd be if I were going through all the emotions of a procedure, including dealing my dh and family and all that.

Though I am reluctant to admit it, I'm the sort who when I get nervous belong locked in a room until it's over.

Hi.
I'm also waiting a couple of months more:just enough to have four months of DHEA intake (I sarted on December 22).
By now, I don't note any changes in my body or my mind.... I don't know if I've to have a major dose of DHEA. I take 75 mg per day.
Any suggestion about that?

Yes: according all I've read, it has to be 4 months in advanced at least to improve the egg quality-quantity

Yes, DHEA is sold over the counter, I believe it is used by athletes, not sure if it's a steriod of something. The real issue regarding use as an infertility drug is doseage. I have seen where some individuals have posted that they use it per the over the counter dosage, but I don't know how that compares to the doseage prescribed by infertility clinics.
