Hi,

So I have been posting congrats and hugs here and answering IUI questions on this board.

We had 5 failed IUIs and are doing a natural IUI to fulfill the insurance requirement. We are unexplained and 32. (info in siggy)

I should get AF around August 12th and then begin IVF. My RE does cycles every 2 months and said I would be doing retrival/transfer in the beginning of September. Does that seem right? How long did you stim for before retrieval? Does everyone take BC pills before starting? Just trying to figure out a time frame because I'm a teacher and go back to work in September.

I have my IVF consult tomorrow. Are there any important questions I should ask? Any advice is much appreciated. I have been trying to research everything IVF related but I feel like there is so much to learn.

Thanks and good luck to you all!

***SIGGY WARNING***

DX: Unexplained

6 Failed IUIs (Clomid and Gonal F).

IVF #1 began August 2013- BC, 4 days of Estrace, stimmed with Gonal F and Menopur, Ganirelix, 9R 5M 5F, Medrol and Doxycycline, 5 day transfer of 2 early blastocysts- good quality, Progesterone, Estrace, and baby aspirin, BETA on 9/20 BFN, IVF #2 began September 2013, stimming with Gonal F (higher dose) and Menopur, Ganirelix, 18R 14M 9F with ICSI, 5 day transfer of 2 BBs one was starting to hatch, 2 frosties: 1 BB and 1 AC, BETA on 10/21, BFN BETA was a 5- chemical

Getting some more testing and trying to figure out what the issue is before FET in December, started acupuncture on 11/10, RLP and some other BW nothing major to report except slightly high Prolactin. Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg. Endo biopsy=negative. WTF is wrong with us???

12/18/13 FET of 1 BB and 1 AC. Hoping for a miracle. Beta 12/26 Low BETA-8 2nd BETA 5- chemical

After 3 failed transfers IDK where to go from here. Still no real answers as to why this isn't working. Getting a second opinion in February and looking into immune testing.
