| A Pregnancy in the Making |
Finally, after so many untoward incidents, I finally met my new OB, Dra. Mae Syki-Young, at Makati Medical Center just this afternoon. True enough, OB is very bubbly, kind, and approachable. She really see to it that her patients will be very comfortable to her and indeed I was in our first meeting.
OB put me on duphaston for 5 days, February 28 to March 4, to induce my period. On my CD 1 to 3, I have to go back to her for follow up check up and to schedule me on a procedure called Hysterosalpingography (HSG).

An HSG is a radiologic procedure to investigate the shape of the uterine cavity and the shape and patency of the fallopian tubes. It is an outpatient procedure, which takes no longer than a half hour. It involves placing an iodine-based dye through the cervix and taking x-rays, primarily, to check whether or not the fallopian tubes are open or blocked.
According to my OB, the procedure alone will costs us P15,000.00 to P18,000.00. Another burden on our budget, isn't it? Whatever this work up entails us, may it be emotionally, physically and financially, DH and I agreed to seriously face this TTC ordeal together just to hold our bundle of joy in God's perfect time.
