I went to a fertility specialist who diagnosed me as unexplained infertility. He did say my husband had male factor as well. He gave my husband some vitamins to improve sperm quality and ran a sperm analysis tht showed improvement. He told us to do 2 rounds of Clomid and then when those failed. He told us IVF was his only recommendation. We did two failed rounds and sought out a different physician. The new doctor told me I had stage 3 Endometrisois, and cysts on my right ovary, and a fibroid in my uterine wall. I had surgery to fix all of this, followed by two more IVF and two more FET. So five tries later, the 6th worked. We are pregnant. But we sold our house to afford all this. IVF is not covered by our insurance, but medication is. About 8k-10k each round, and meds are about $3000 each round. FET meds are cheaper for me. We have INSANE debt from our repeated tries and have spent about 70K for all these rounds. We are in the U.S. After all our failures we got smart and quit paying for each one, one at a time. We bought a bulk package for 20K were for 365 days we get as many tries as we can fit into the year. We still pay for the meds. What I feel really made this round work and all the others not, is this round I started Acupunture for infertility two months prior to my embryo transfer. I also bought the book, Boost your fertility by Marilyn Glenville from half-price books. I figured what do I have to loose? I changed my diet and personal products to all natural and organic products. Cut dairy, cut red meat, cut white food (rice, bread, potatoes) and limited sugar and salt. No soda, or cold foods (acupuncture requirement). I really believe this made all the difference for me (and I am not a hippy-dippy all natural kind of girl). But it works, for real!!! Look into it before spending all your money on IVF. I was pregnant within 2-3 months of doing these changes, but it says to give it 6 months. Hope it works for you!!
. I would really appreciate any advice you lovely ladies can give.
Our RE recommended IUI with injectables since my hormones are normal and both tubes are wide open. She'll be refering us for IVF if we have 3 unsuccessful IUI cycles and in the waiting time, will continue with 3 more. We just had our 1st IUI and it failed so will be going in for IUI #2 now. Here in Denmark you get unlimited free IUIs and 3 free IVF tries so don't know anything about costs. We're currently only paying for the hormones.
