So thought that I would update you ladies and tell you that my beta came back at 356 today! My clinic considers anything over 5 a positive test so they were extremely pleased with my numbers!! They scheduled me for next Monday for more bloodworm and an ultrasound! I can't wait!! Keeping my fingers crossed all continues to go well but it looks like I will be sticking around this board!!!

PAIF/SAIF Welcome!
Dx : DOR
IUI #1 (Follistim switched over to Menopur injections) - BFN
Attempted IUI #2 (Menopur injections only cycle) better response on the Menopur then the Follistim combination treatment cycle however my cycle was still canceled due to my eggs not maturing and follicles not growing enough on a high dose of Menopur (Re said I could try a cycle of comid + ovidrel for an IUI) for my second IUI( praying this works for us)
Clomid + Ovidrel protocol worked still a BFN as a result
Attempted cycle Clomid + Ovidrel protocol for IUI # 3 (Unable to do this cycle due to a cyst)
IUI # 3 Clomid+ Ovidrel protocol - BFP Beta #1 752 Beta #2 1536 Beta #3 3797
EDD 10/27/14
