Quote From: helpme_plzI get really surprised when women tell me that their doctors won't do any tests until they've been trying a year. My husband and I started trying in April. I think it took 40+ days for my first cycle after I got off the pill (and I had to take Provera to even start). I called my dr. to let them know that I wasn't starting and they did a blood test right away. He said that anything over 36 days is abnormal. They fould out that I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) which means I don't ovulate. They started me on Clomid right away. I'm not pregnant yet, but still hoping. They are starting me on a new drug this cycle! I hate to "self-diagnose" but maybe you need a second opinion. I think that some doctors forget that it's your life and it's important to you. Also, I'm surprised they weren't more agressive since you are in your 30s (not that it's old by any means!!!), but my doctor has really stressed that the younger the better. I hope this helps.
