I am 25 years old and have been battling infertility for 20 months now. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and my whole thyroid was removed when I was 5 months pregnant with my first son. After my delivery I had radioactive iodine (radiation). My husband and I started trying to concieve almost two years ago and have had no luck. I have had all the appropriate tests and passed with flying colors. I ahve had two round of IUI while using the trigger shot and Femara 5mg. I have two good follices on both cycles. I am wondering if my throid is my problem. I am on Synthroid 150, my docotr keeps my throid at an undetectable level to keep the cancer from coming back. Anyone else have a similar case?
