Momofadane just because my doctors say that doesn't mean your doctor believes the same thing. I hope your FS has better news to calm your mind. Remind me what meds u have done and how many cycles each? You will have a baby soon. Just because something didn't work for me doesn't mean it won't happen for u.

I don't know why I just assumed you could stay on the meds until you for a BFP. Thats a bummer there is a time limit. I will see what my FS says. For me and my DH we haven't been trying too long, but because of our situation (I learned with our first daughter) it requires medication. The will only be my second month of Femera, HCG trigger, progesterone. And this time will be the first IUI. Still waiting for AF to arrive, darn progesterone!
 
It always takes my body 5 days after I stopped my progesterone to get af.. ugh. Tick tock tick tock... your MD may agree with you or at least let you try with orals until they see decline or problems.

OK thank you!! You're so knowledgeable :)
Then patiently I await :coffee:
 
My doctor doesn't have a time limit with medication but he does like to be more agrees when something doesn't work after 2 Months. He said our best odds were 3 iuis. He would recommend a 4th if we hadn't tried injections if we hadn't done them before. But these girls are right all doctors are different!

I usually start af 2 days after stopped progesterone

My appointment today was a bust. Scan was pretty painful. Didn't realize they would be enlarging and flushing my uterus today! During the scan they found a polyp. So now I will be having surgery next week. ..sometimes it feels like one thing after another...

OMG you poor thing. Im so sorry, you have gone through so much. I will be thinking about you. Wishing you the best of luck through everything.

AF arrived today so I am calling my FS to let them know we will be doing the IUI this month. its a nurse that calls me so I dont know if she will be able to answer by questions.

How is everyone else doing?
 
Waiting- I hope you are feeling better. Do you know what day your surgery is?

Momofadane- did you get your medications and start them?
 
I'm still trolling around. :) I went in for my hsg and my tubes are clear so that was a big plus. After that I was told I can either continue with femara or start the track for an ivf but iui wouldn't give me any better chances. That was the one I was hoping to try so the news wasn't fun. I ended up triggering last Thursday so now I'm really just waiting. How are things going for you?
 
Hi ladies!
Can't remember if I posted in here too....
I got a pos opk 2 days ago, and believe I ovulated yesterday.
I'm sure so baffled, that means I ovulated on day 13! I have NEVER ovulated this early! Even when I was on the meds!

Still not sure if cysts can cause my body to think it's ready to ovulate, or if I can even ovulate if I have cysts!
 
Holly what are you going to do? Does your MD do the ivf or do you have to go somewhere else?
 
Hey there!!! Yeah Im on CD6 and day 4 on Femara. I go in on Saturday morning to get a US. Depending on how that goes they will let me know if I can do a IUI.

How is everything going with you??! What day are you on?
 
Hi everyone. I'm using clomid this cycle but not femara. No other active IUI threads on the boards so I hope I can join you!


Today is CD12 of our second IUI. My first cycle was a success but we lost our little one after a missed miscarriage. I think that was the worst thing that has happened. I've known grief but never grief like that.

Today I had my ultrasound - one big follie at 16mm. Going to go back for another scan on Thursday to see if she is 20mm and ready to trigger yet!

Being back on this rollercoaster is terrifying. We only have two tries left to get this right. My fingers are crossed!
 
Welcome Amigone!
Im so sorry to hear about your loss, I just couldn't imagine. Wishing you lots of baby dust you will see a BFP soon!! This is definitely a roller coaster, and I haven't had to deal with a loss. These forums make me a little less insane, knowing I'm not the only one!
 
In my experience the frustration and heartbreak of an infertility journey spanning 7 years was nothing compared to the frustration and heartbreak of a loss. I say this only regarding my own journey -- each one's is different. Fortunately (such as it is) my loss happened naturally, at home, no medical procedures and we were able to honour our little one's remains with presentation of a stuffed panda bear (that's a big thing in my and my wife's families) and cremation. We made the best of a really rotten situation. I was off work two months to get myself back together, and now I am mostly okay. Except the fear that it will happen again, but there's no reason to expect that.

Where are you in your cycle?
 
Right now we're going to stick with just the femara to see how that goes while I battle insurance. They apparently require a preauthorization before seeing a fertility doctor but no one told me that and I obviously didn't get it. I really hope I'm just misunderstanding them though because it says if I don't get that they could cut my benefits up to 50%.

Awe Im so so sorry. At least you and you're wife were able to make the best out of something so devestating. Wishing you the best of luck!

I am on CD7. I feel like this month will take forever!! Hopefully al will go as planned for you and the IUI will be done Thursday :)

UGH!!! Gotta love insurance! Hopefully they can figure it out for you.
Our insurance will not cover IVF, and we dont have 20K hanging around, so I am hoping IUI will work for us.
 
Amigone welcome! Sorry that you are back to the ttc boards again after a horrible loss. I am glad you so strong and brave to go through the battle again. I had an early miscarriage in January 2014 and then ectopic in December 2014 both were hard but I can't imagine your loss. Thoughts to you and your family.

Holly- sorry about your insurance hold up. As soon as I made a fertility appt they start contacting my insurance to find out my benefits. I don't have any infertility benefits but it takes 3 months to get approval and scheduled anyways. I hope you find out very soon. Maybe femara will give you more eggs and dh sperm won't have to work too hard.
 
Momofadane I will be thinking of you and throwing lots of baby dust to you on Saturday for some nice plump healthy follicules.
