Thank you for the link and your thoughts. The RE I saw said that birth control pills are contraindicated for fibroid containment. Plus, the last time I was on BCPs, I was getting migraines with aura. Not good. Anything else you can suggest? Additionally, this RE would prescribe HCG shots, believing that the HGC will boost my natural progesterone production. I guess they've had good results with it. I'm wondering if I should start on some herbals too, like partridge berry? Hi Sharon. Thank you for the link and your thoughts.

I’m wondering if I should start on some herbals too, like partridge berry?

I saw your comment on Bellies and Babies blogsite. I like your blog very much. I am going to link yours to mine. I hope you get some resolution to the infertility issue. The progesterone defect is a particularly troublesome thing, but at least you can take progesterone. The fibroid is another matter. You just have to weigh the risks as you know them. But be reassured many many women have babies every day and they have fibroids.Only once in my career (11yrs as a CNM, and 5 yrs as an L&D nurse) where I watched a woman who had a fibroid grow so much the baby basically got pushed out at 21 wks. Yet so many women have come through my care that have gone on to have fine healthy term babies. So the odds are on your side that you should be ok. I have one CNM friend who tells patients in your situation to try 3 months of birth control pills and then stop and attempt pregnancy. I have to say I worked with this CNM 6 years and more times then not the patient would get pregnant. I can't answer why, but I am just throwing that out there. Good luck.
