Emoticon Unhappy confused about RE and OBGYN, Clomid issue.

Im confused.
I went to see my RE September 17th, he said for me to go off of Clomid, that my OBGYN was premature to prescribe it and that I clearly showed back in my cycle in May-July that I was ovulating. I went to see my OBGYN yesturday to get my results from my Progesterone and he was impressed,e ven sent me for a beta which came back negative I knew all that.

Both doctors are having a discrepency on what is the best treatment for me.

Now my OBGYN said by looking at my chart IF i did ovulate at the time that the RE thinks I did, which was cd 32 (june 20) I should of shown a positive test after or had gotten my period after. Or I could of had a weak ovulation or was gearing up to ovulate but didnt. Well I clearly showed I wasnt pregnant, I had a bloodtest done, I even done pregnancy tests, all negative. Then I was prescribed Provera back July 16. My RE thinks I had my OWN surge on or befor July 13, and that the Provera was unneeded. Well because I wasnt doing OPKs, I was given the Provera and cus my cycle was as long as it was at that point. My OBGYN was impressed with how well the Provera made my period come and gave me Clomid. To help give me a boost, since I am not ovulating very well on my own or at all. My results following the 2 cycles of Clomid showed very good progress. I have been ovulating on my own etc. With the exception of being or not being pregnant back in August time.

I told my OBGYN that my RE told me in September to get me off of Clomid and to take a break until I get my HSG test done and to not worry if Im ovulating or not, to just take it as it is. My OBGYN got very upset , called my RE to get the letter that was apparently sent out to him to stop me on Clomid, (he never got it) the lack of communication has me so pissed.

My OBGYN sent me for a BETA cus he wasnt convinced I wasnt pregnant, my flow wasnt as bad etc. I laughed and cried that he isnt beleiving me. I laughed cus my tests clearly showed I wasnt adn that I had to go to a lab to get pricked again for no freaking reason. But he wasnt convinced cus of my surge results. Results came back today, negative. DUH.

Well my OBGYN called and talked to him, and the RE said for me to decide if I want to be on Clomid or not. He isnt too keen on prescribing it that soon after a procedure said I should wait BUT also says it isnt that bad to be on it, but their are some sideeffects that come with it. But wants me to go for the HSG in December/January time anyways. He told my OBGYN that he wants him (OBGYN)to be in charge and if it shows Im not getting pregnant on any treatment he chooses that I go see him to see what my fertility problem is. Until then I should do what this doctor says.

What Im mainly concerned, confused about is that my OBGYN said I can listen to my RE and go off of Clomid till around xmas time and after my HSG or I can take the Clomid and still get the HSG done around the end of the year. He said after this cycle if Im not pregnant he will change treatment and try something else.

I just feel pulled between two doctors. Why would the RE say one thing and now change his mind? is it he now sees my annovulatory cycle or is it that he feels I should do this to prove I cant get pregnant or what? Is it a mistake I be listening to my OBGYN?

I beleive I should take the Clomid. I even told both my RE and OBGYN that I felt it was needed. I sort of new it was, and was upset when I was told to get off of it. I only heard of what Clomid does and what its for, and my cycles being totally off like they have been since around November last year clearly indicates something needs to be done. Had period November, february,march,april,may(early23d after last cycle) end of July, end of august, and beginning october. that is 7-8 cycles in a year. Clearly something is wrong, or maybe not. Im not too certain if their is something wrong, cus befor November I was getting my period, not sure if it was ovulation doing it or what. My doctors think MAYBE me being sick In december time caused me to be late, but they cant be too certain about that cus It was just a stomach bug type infection. Then the doctor thinks I could of been late in May due to my surgery, which my OBGYN says shouldnt be a factor cus alot of women he deals with has their period after.
I just dont know what to do, Im am lost. I feel that if I go back on Clomid I could cause myself problems, I feel that I should just get new doctors in general. Even tho my RE says this OBGYN I have is one of the best irregardless of age,t hat he is known to be very good. I coudl get a new doctor but I could be stuck on a waiting list. I guess I will wait till the end of the year to decide what I want to do, in the mean time guess Im back on Clomid.
Is it bad to start it cd 6, my OBGYN said it isnt.

i feel Im leaving something out, if I am, I will post to this thread. Sorry. Im just so upset, I feel to scream, punch something. I hate this, i hate that they cant talk amogst each other, that one is saying one thing another saying one thing, but yet they both want to work together to help me get pregnant.
