New and Urologist?

[Paige, CPM]

Hi Ladies!

I think it is time to bust out the reading on infertility! It's been fun in the sack but no bb for over a year and I am getting up there in age (35). I am surrounded by pregnancy and babies and it is becoming challenging.

I called dh's doc to find out about seeing another pract for SA, they said go ahead. I was thinking Urologist, but I noticed you all kept mentioning RE (a practitioner?) in your posts about male-factor. What is RE? I just can't get my mind around it...I am sure I will be saying duh as I read your reply!

We are southcoast MA but can go to BOS easy...any suggestions on great practitioners?

Any suggestions on best on-line sources to start my reading on infertility?

I have done charting and everything seems pretty ok with me, I'm very regular, w/ CM on time and all. We have both done guaif and I have even done, don't laugh, vaginal baking soda wash (for PH). I hate all the high maintenance! And yet, it has become obvious that we have to start doing more! :

I have no health insurance though so we thought we'd start with him, as he has coverage.

TIA for your suggestions! Paige
