Three Cheers for my Ovaries!

I knew they could do it. I waited four full weeks, which in infertility time is roughly equivalent to several decades, and got the payoff I wanted: This morning's ultrasound revealed my dysfunctional but eager ovaries to be cyst-free and ready for some follicular fun. Instructions for tonight: 37.5 IU of Gonal-F; return on Monday for bloodwork and ultrasound.

I hate it when something I didn't want to happen actually turns out to be a good thing, but I think the break has been good for me. I'm back and in fightin' form. Ready to kick some infertility ass.

PS Congratulations and good thoughts go out to Lisa! In addition to being genuinely happy for you, one infertile's success somehow feels like a victory for all of us.
