Femara twice in one cycle?

[Ltruns33]

Hey ladies! I have a question!

Ok, today was cd 12 u/s day. I am technically cd 13 today, expecting to trigger tonight and do iui Wednesday. My lining looked great, 10 (mm?). anyways, my right had NO follicles and my left has a tiny follie, like barely 10mm. They are putting me on a second round of femara in the same cycle to boost follie production. What? I asked the nurse if it would throw my body off, and she said no. I said, so your body doesn't know CD it just knows hormones? She said, well..basically!

Anyways, i go back in a week after 5 days of femara again to see how the follies look. I can't help but think this cycle is a bust! They say they have done this before often, that sometimes your cycle just needs a boost. I googled like crazy and have found a few threads that showed their RE's doing the same thing. I trust my RE, and I know he's way qualified for his job, but I can't help but scratch my head over this!

I did call a little bit after I left and asked for more explanation but until then, any ideas?

Wonder how this worked out for you? I'm currently taking a second dose as well

I took a second dose on one of my rounds. Definitely made my follicles grow but still didn't do the trick for me. Be prepared to have them up your dosage next month though.
