Hi, I'm 23 and have been trying to get pregnant for about 2 years now. Since I first started my period (i was about 13 years old) They have been irregular until I was about 15 years old and I completely stopped having periods. I went to numerous doctors and was told it was normal. I was tested (blood test) for polycystic overy syndrome a couple times and was told I did not have this. Back in Sept of 04 I went to the doctor for help with getting pregant, I was then refered to a gyno who was sure I had polycystic even before he done any test. He then preformed a transvaginal ultrasound wich confirmed it. He also found I had endometrial Hyperplasia and cyst in my uterus. I had a D&C (which I also found out i had a unicornuate uterus (half a uterus)) and was then sceduled for a diagnostic Laparoscopy. I had to get blood test done first and the results came back positive for pregnancy though the level was low. I had blood test done once a week for the next few weeks, the levels went up but not like they should have. The dr said it was not growing right or it was growing in one of my tubes. This was very hard to hear. We went ahead with the laparoscopy (the preganacy ended up terminating its self) and found it was not in my tube. Its been a week since that was done and right now I have to take medication for 5 days to have my period. On the 5th day of my period I am to start Clomid. The instruction paper I was given says to take a teaspoon of Robitussin twice a day on the 4th thru 7th day after the last clomid and to have intercourse on the 5th and 7th day. The reason for this long story (sorry about the length) is I was wondering if anyone might have any of the same diagnosis as me and if so are you or were pregnant, if so is/was there any complications, and if any one might know the reason for taking Robitussin?
