Thank you for your attention Dr. Wang.

I wanted to clarify your point below:

>Your history is a bit confusing - I don't understand why you would have
>HSG's if you are already going through IVF. I don't know why you would
>have 3 HSG's. You should have had laparoscopy so that the doc could get
>a direct view of your tubes and pelvis and treat things if possible.

I started infertility work in 96. I had HSG and Lap that year, both came back clear. At the end of 96, I got pg with clomid/IUI cycle which I misscarried at 11 week.

Did some more Clomid/IUI and on my first injectable/IUI cycle, RN found unusual view (dialated tube?) during ultrasound. Had HSG which came back clear. My FSH by them was 11 and we decided to move to the different RE to do IVF. Had 3 unsuccessful cycles.

Before starting 4th IVF cycle, a resident found possible dialated tube during ultrasound. My RE did HSG to make sure. My tubes are clear. He concluded that it culd be an enlarged vein (we did not do any doppler). Had 2 more unsccessful IVF(I did have more morer than 3 quality embryos returned).

Right now, I am on the process of doing Clomid challenge test with a ObGyn Dr. During the ultrasound, RN again found this enlarged tube(?). She said that she would disscuss this with Dr to see if we need to worry about it or not. I am doing CCT to decide that I should be moving on to Donor Egg or not. However, if this enlarged tube has something to do with my unsuccessful IVF cycles. I will face the same result.

You mentioned that "the thickened tube shouldn't be related to the hydro. " Does that mean one can have a thickened tube without having hydro? If so, would that be something needs medical attention especially in order to achieve pregnancy? What other possibility youo would see in the situation like this?

I really appreciate your input.
