Stay: did the doctor say you can't start stims without AF? When I did IVF and took BCPy clinic said I may or may not get AF and we would proceed either way. I know it is so annoying when there are setbacks like cysts and AF not showing up, but these doctors make sure everything is perfect before proceeding. IVF is a huge investment and you want to know that everything is set before going forward. You'll get there and you are in hoo hands.
Orchid, Barbkins, Chris: I'm so sorry to hear about failed IUIs. This thread has been such a great support for those going through LTTTC and assisted conception. But it seems at the height of or frustration, one of these treatments finally work. I'll never know why one day it just finally works, but it does. And it will for you. It's the not knowing when which is the hard part. All the women in here have been in the same situation at one point of another, myself included. But we are seeing some BFPs roll in and even a couple babies!
Something that always made me feel better during all my fails was that my SIL went through 3 years LTTTC and 4 IUIs. She had a support group like this online and eventually every single lady got a bfp. Some just took longer than others.
the only answer I get is "everything looks great" It's obviously not "great" I spoke to the nurse today and she did give me somewhat of an answer she said I have a luteal phase defect. My progesterone drops quickly after ovulation.
