So much has happened in the last few weeks but I feel like we are taking one step forward and two steps back. 

I started Provera nearly a month ago now thinking that Af would arrive within a few days of trying and we would be able to start Clomid by the end of the month. Of course, keeping with my body's unwillingness to cooperate, the Provera did not work at all. No spotting, no AF. My OB now has me taking BCP in hopes of inducing AF. I have sadly accepted the fact that there is no longer any possible way of finding out we are pregnant this year. 

We also got the results of Dh's SA and they were not great. We had assumed that the results would be fine considering how easy it was for us to get pregnant last time. Unfortunately the results came back with 7% morphology. According to the lab tech's notes, they consider 0-5% infertile, 6-12 % subfertile and above 12% to be normal. I am starting to feel like this is a bad joke.  Dh is going to redo the test in December to make sure it is accurate. 

In light of the aforementioned revelations, my OB has announced that he really can't help me anymore and offered me a referral to an RE clinic in the city. I was in such a daze at his office that I said I would go on the BCP and think about it. I have decided I might as well book the consultation as there is currently a 2 month wait just for that initial appointment. 

So, I am starting my BCP tonight and I am not particularly impressed with that!
