Introduction
I am 23 years old and have been married for 3 1/2 years. We have been trying to conceive for 2 years now. We never thought it would be difficult because both of us come from big families with 6 and 5 children in them.

Tests, Procedures, Medical consultations
I have had irregular and heavy periods since I was 14 years. I have had numerous ultrasounds to try and find out why. I just had one recently where the ultrasound technician was rude and very aloof. She did not even introduce herself. I felt so sad afterwards. Her she was sticking something down my vagina and I did not even know her name (she did not even wear a nametag). I am in the healthcare field so I decided then to be very careful of introducing myself and being compassionate towards patients in my practice. My doctors have been helpful, but no one has found anything wrong which is frustrating because I least I would have a diagnosis.

Trying-to-Conceive (TTC) experience
It has become very difficult over the years to see our friends have children so easily - my best friend after 2 months of trying and a friend on BC having a surprise child. Relatives and friends are starting to say to us, "when are you guys going to have kids." We have told no one about our difficulties and I think everyone just assumes that we are still young and in no hurry. It is getting more difficult at that time of the month, not to be extremely disappointed that we are again not pregnant.

Charting Experience
I really like charting with fertility friend. To see all my information there and charted helps me visualize my cycle better. I was always half charting and leaving some things out so the prompts on the screen have been very helpful.
