Femara Friends!

[wildchic]

Karen- I haven't posted in a while, but have you done iui yet? Pre-seed is lovely! Although it never worked for us. We still use it occasionally. I hope you get a bfp before moving on to a donor!

I don't ovulate on my own at all, but with Femara I have been ovulating every month. We have done 6 iuis. the 4th was our one and only pregnancy, ended at 8 weeks becuase it was ectopic. The last one left a very sour taste in our mouth so we aren't too keen on trying again with the same clinic. Also, we don't think it is worth the cost as DH doesn't have any sperm issues.

Ok ladies, tomorrow I start my first round... Do you all prefer to take your femara in the morning or in the evening? Mr dr didn't tell me what time of day to take it, just to take it 5-9

 

[TonyaG]

My clinic always said to take meds after 8pm, but I think that is because after having bloods/scans they can adjust meds if needed.

Good luck!

 

[Miskas mommy]

Thanks Tonya. I am not having any bloods or scans, our insurance won't cover fertility issues.. So we are just hoping the femara does it's job.

Are you on metformin

 

[karenh]

Yes, ER 1000 morning and evening. Also, glipizide. I was diagnosed with diabetes in June.

 

[MKHewson]

Metformin was the trick for my pregnancies. Let's hope that combo in does the same for

I've been on it for years. Hasn't helped yet. Just got a positive opk so DH and I were trying to dtd, and he brother and sister in law came over. Ugh! Something always comes up.
