My DH and I are on our 13th cycle TTC. I had a chemical last month so this month we were unassisted and just used timed intercourse. Over the past year I have done a combination of IUI and femara (I last month was our 6th IUI) as well as femara/Clomid and times intercourse. We have been diagnosed with unexplained infertility as all appears to be working properly for DH and I.
I asked my doctor today about using injectables for our next round of IUI and he said we could do that but it would only increase my chance of conception by 1% (at the same time increasing my chance of twins by 50 and trip by 16). I know he is the medical expert but I find it hard to believe. Even at 1% Im still thinking it may be worth it to at least try (since I have been unsuccessful with everything else). I guess what Im looking for is advice, stories for those who experienced something similar? Or those who went from meds+iui to injectables and Iui and if you got pregnant how long did it take.
Sorry so long!
