Hi! I was glancing through the message boards and was pleasantly surprised to find this one! I've been hanging out a little on TTCAL, not knowing this one existed until recently. Just a little about us. We've been TTC for 3 years. DH was diagnosed with azoospermia almost 2 years ago. Last December we were advised to move onto adoption or donor sperm after DH had microdissection, and they still found nothing. January we chose an open donor. Our second IUI, we got our first BFP March 24th, but unfortunately miscarried April 14th. After 2 more failed IUIs and a 3 month break, we are finally starting back up!

    Thank you ladies! I'm impatiently waiting for AF! I'm trying to go into this cycle with no expectations, just positivity...hopefully. Last IUI, I was almost sure it worked because symptoms and progesterone levels resembled that of my BFP so the BFN knocked me down along with a cyst on my ovary that put into my treatment break.

    My base ultrasound is Monday morning. I'm not sure what meds they plan to put me on this cycle. I'll find out then. Last cycle I used Clomid and Ovidrel.
