Hi Catherine,

I'm very sorry to hear your story. I'm in the same situation but my partner doesn't care if I have or not children but I"m diyng for one. Saturday I was very depressed too becuase I was all by myself in my house and I looked around and there was nothing to do, no reason for me to work in life, the house was cold and I felt horrible empty. I understand what you mean. Your husband and you should go to counseling and find a solution to that. I think that having intercourse in more then have somebody pregnant. its cruel to tell you those things when you are going through so much. Don't be sad but have faith because its the only thing. I finished Lupron in January and I got my 2nd period now and I feel normal pain. yes you do have hotflashes but its worse it. After I had lupron i noticed that I may be fertile, don't lose your hope. You should go on Lupron. I know few people that got pregnant after having lupron. You should go to endocrinology-gynecology which are especialist for fertilization. wait for hysterec. don't do it yet. Good luck! Alexandra
