I'm in another natural cycle. We aren't cycling until August, which is frustrating but also kind of nice to be not taking shots, not going to tons of appts. I'll be ready to go by August though...too much time has passed already! QOTW: St. John; I'd rent a big house with a pool and a chef and driver and charter a boat for a day or two to pop around.

Weird insurance/HSA question for you all (I tried googling this and couldn't find anything helpful, and I thought maybe one of you might have experience with this):
My HCG trigger shot is ordered through an online pharmacy. If I pay "out of pocket" the cost is ~$100, but if I go through my insurance, the cost is almost triple (but at least then the amount spent goes towards my yearly deductible).
Last IUI, I did the higher cost option so it would go towards my deductible, and I paid through my HSA. This cycle, I don't currently have enough money in my HSA to cover the high cost option through insurance, so I will need to pay "out of pocket," since I have to pay for the prescription tomorrow, before I would be putting more money into the HSA.
My question is, can I still use my HSA account money for the prescription if I'm paying "out of pocket"? Do I have to go through insurance if I want to use my HSA? This is my first year with a high deductible plan and an HSA, and I don't really understand all of the rules.
Thanks in advance.
Speaking as an insurance broker, yes you can use your HSA card for the HCG even though it's not run through your insurance. As long as it's an HSA eligible expense (which that is), then you can use the HSA card regardless of insurance plan usage. In fact, little known tidbit, even if you end up losing/dropping your high deductible health plan at some point, the funds remaining in your HSA (which roll over year to year) can still be used for qualified medical expenses. You just wouldn't be able to contribute to one if you're not on a HDHP.
wannabmama and thechickencoop, I ended up testing yesterday. BFN. It's only 10DPO, which I know is early, but I am still pretty crushed. I won't test again until Saturday, if necessary.

I hope it's just too early (it IS too early ) try to stay positive!

AFM, looking st the tail-end of my TWW. Trying not to pay too much attention to my chart (Rama is not helping) because I know, a "pretty" chart don't mean shit. But after all this time, it's hard to not board the crazy train. I have my own suite there by now. Hysteroscopy is still scheduled for 7/7 unless, by some miracle, I am KU. AF is supposed to start today and I have been having cramps off and on for a few days but temps are still up. We'll see...
QOTW - Japan. Or Mexico, to visit MH's family. Or somewhere tropic. (I think I need a vacation)

Hi ladies! I'm out of town, so I'll have to tag you all later this week when I have my laptop. Just wanted to send hugs and good vibes to you all:)
In currently in the TWW of a natural cycle. FF is confused on my O date, so we shall see when cd1 happens.
I was supposed to go with IUI #3 next cycle, but it serverly clashes with me going out of town in July. I think I'll ask the RE if I can go on BC until I get back so I don't have to wait another full cycle again. Has anyone done that before?

kawaiikitsune, OMG crossing all the things for you!!
snakefisherbub, I know it sucks that things are going to take time, but I really like what you're saying about your new RE. For some reason, I find "She said she hasn't quite figured me out yet but she will." to be calming. Best of luck to you!!

I'm headed back to the gyn tomorrow because i've reached new levels of discomfort and pain. I'm finally getting a referral to the RE. I can't take this anymore.
I've been beyond bloated for weeks and finally reached my breaking point on Monday when I gasped as I looked in the bathroom mirror at work. I'm sharing a picture from Monday because the bloat is out of control.

Hey I have a dumb question...anyone that's used Crinone, or I guess any progesterone suppository, have you ever used a menstrual cup to...keep the mess at bay?
It wasn't that bad last cycle but I'm just paranoid of staining/leaking and whatnot.

I don't use a menstral cup but I've never had issues with Crinone staining even if it leaks a bit. And if it leaks it's not more than the amount I get with CM. What helps is moving around for like 20 mins after applying. I notice days I sit all day that I have more leakage than when I'm up moving around doing my regular work routine.

So i'm back from the dr's. The doctor has decided to treat me as an endo patient. He prescribed prometrium for the ten days to see if it helps alleviate pain, and shrink any potential cysts. I have to go for another ultrasound this week, and see him again on the 5th. He also requested records from my old gyn so he can review the results of my last lap. He is concerned they missed something or possibly didn't do biopsies.
I'm holding off on getting the RE referral for just a little longer to see what happens in the next few weeks.
