Default Anyone been to Fertility Clinc at Royal Alexandra Hospital in Edmonton, Alberta????

Hi,
I am new to Soul Cysters and I was wondering if anyone has been to the Fertility Clinic at Royal Alexandra Hospital in Edmonton. I would love to hear about your experiences. I am to see Dr. Mortan at the end of March. I am 28 and have PCOS. My husband and I have been ttc for about 2.5 years now. I have tried clomid at 50 and 100mg doses and did not ovulate. Now I am on metformin 1500mg and clomid 150mg.

Any info anyone could share, would be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Hey there, sorry this post is so late...I don't get on here often these days. I do see there is time before you appointment still!

I just wanted to share my experience at the clinic in Edmonton. I also see Dr Motan. I just love him he is great. We first went there in summer of 06 after my DH was dx with a male factor (I do have pcos) Our first appt was basically talking about what tests we needed to do and possible treatments. He also did a tvu and a pap for me.

Our course of treatment ended up being clomid/trigger/iui. My cycles were monitored by tvu. I did get pregnant on our first cycle but the pregnancy ended up being non-viable. As bad as that experience was Dr M and the nurses at the clinic were wonderful. I couldn't have asked for better people to get me through that.

After my "recovery" time we did our second clomid cycle. It was bfn but Dr M had noticed my lining was just barely acceptable and suggested it was due to clomid and maybe we should move on for the next cycle.

Our third iui was with gonal f and iui. That was the winner. My DS is now 16 months and I have recently (Jan) seen dr M about ttc#2. I got back on metformin had another hsg dh another s/a and we are a go to start treatment whenever we are ready.

If you have any specific questions please let me know!
