Hi Clowe77,

Thanks for your reply. As I mentioned before, my issue is not fertility at all--I had no problem getting pregnant--went off the pill and was pregnant within the next cycle (unplanned...ugh!).

My issue is PMDD which I have had problems with for over 10 years. Right now I am consulting with a doctor in the States as well as a natural family planning (NFP) instructor as I've been charting my cycles for about 8-9 months now. It is likely that my issue is one with progesterone and I may need to receive a week's worth of hormone supplementation (estrogen, progesterone or HCG, depending on what ratios they find in the bloodtests). These all must be administered after I ovulate--which fortunately for me, I know because I chart my cycles faithfully.

Anyway, I am not really interested in taking any type of synthetic hormones and have been advised that there are natural alternatives out there. So, right now I'm searching for a Reproductive Endocrinologist that can work with the specialists I'm working with here in the States once I return to HK.

Does Dr. Ho have an e mail address I can contact him through that you know of? I would just like to ask him a few basic questions about his approach and explain my situation further so I can decide if he might be the right guy.

Thanks again for the recommendation!
