Hi, my name is Natalie. I am taking clomid and had my 1st IUI done. I got my period today, right on schedule. Pretty bummed. Strange thing is that my period in brown. Maybe thats from the meds? Was wondering what the average round of IUI cycles does to take to get pregnant.
Re: 1st IUI Treatment
Sorry to hear your first IUI didn't work out. I remember how difficult that can be. I'm not sure anyone here will really be able to answer your question, though. All the ladies here have been through IUIs and moved on to IVF when the IUIs failed. Most moved on after 3 - 6 failed IUIs. Maybe you'll find more folks to talk to in your stage of IF treatment in the Trouble TTC board, and success stories are more likely in one of the currently pregnant boards.
Good luck! I hope your IF journey is short. Take care!
