Is this a stupid idea, should I just wait?

So this cycle I had meltdown and tossed out all of my fertility medications, and when it was time for my u/s and trigger, my follies were too small and dr said cycle was a no go and to come in next cycle.

Knowing myself, without a trigger, I will either not ovulate at all and then it will be a month of two before I even start a new cycle. Or, I will ovulate in maybe 3 or 4 weeks, then start normally after that.

My question is, I have refills left at the pharmacy for Provera, since starting TTC I have only needed it the first time to get things going after nearly a year with no period. Should I call in a refill for the Provera so I can get things started a bit faster?

I am already extremely peeved at myself for ruining this cycle, so mad. I just want to start bleeding so I can take my femara without throwing it down the drain and do my IUI so I can hurry up and *fingers crossed*, get a BFP.

Should I wait, even though it could take months since I went and screwed everything up. Should it be my punishment for wasting hundreds of dollars worth of meds? Or should I live and learn, hurry up and try again?

Why won't your doctor give you new meds now? Whenever I go in for u/s and trigger and my follies are too small, my RE immediately starts me on another round of Femara. You may want to ask your doctor why they won't do it. And if they say that no one does that, tell them they need to research the "stair-step protocol". All recent research shows the you don't have to wait for AF to arrive to start on the next round of meds. They can be prescribe immediately.

If your doctor flat our refuses you more meds, you can certainly take the Provera if you want to. At least, I would!

I didn't ask why they didn't want to do more medications, but all he had said was that "given my history he felt it was too late in my cycle take anymore medications at this point". So I didn't question, just went out to the car and cried and felt like a failure. I did in fact just end up calling in the Provera, figured it wasnt going to hurt anything. I have one more pill today and hopefully I start bleeding within the next few days. I can feel some light cramping which I usually get around the last pill day so at least I can be sure its working. If everything is "timed" right and goes according to plan, the last part of my 2ww will be during our trip to Hawaii, and I am so excited to test while we are on vacation (as if that has anything to do with it right?) for some reason I have a feeling this could be it...maybe its because I'm feeling proactive this month, who knows.

Go you taking things into your own hands. I think the Provera sounds like a good idea.
