Third IUI with three follicles

Swest519

Ok ladies so I'm looking for some encouragement. Long story short, I've done four rounds of clomid without any luck. Moved to injectables and trigger shots. I've had 2 unsuccessful IUI's. Last month I was supposed to have my third IUI but husband had to leave for work and so we could only do timed intercourse and no IUI, which again was unsuccessful. Had another round of injectables with a trigger and IUI this week. Had 3 mature follicles. Has anyone had luck on their third IUI with three follicles?!? Husbands count and motility is perfect (the doctor even joked about hanging the results on the refrigerator). I'm getting so discouraged.

Hi Swest519,

So you're on your 2 week wait! That's incredibly exciting. I wish I could report a happy and similar outcome, but not quite yet. I'm on my second IUI (Thursday), also with three mature follicles. Do you have a blood test date yet? Does your RE have any concerns about multiples?
Hope you're hanging in there, taking care of yourself, and that your heart remains full. There are so many beautiful journeys on this site - I hope you feel yours is one of them.

I had success on my third IUI (i did two  IVF's first, i know backwards) but anyway. I had 7 follicles and got pregnant with twins. Lost one at 11 weeks and have a healthy 20 month old. I have DOR so I knew all 7 of my eggs were not good so thats why we went for that. I am in the process of my 6th fertility treament as we speak, IUI #4 and just cancelled it today and am doing timed intercourse. I only have 1 egg and I just dont want to waste the money with only one egg, i know the odds. So timed intercourse on Thursday and then back to stimming in two weeks. UGH this process. Good luck

Thanks for your kind words. I go next Friday! I just genuinely don't think it
Worked but yes they said be prepared for the chances of multiples. I've always joked about having twins, they run in my family, and my husband is
A twin so we will see.

Hello! My husband and I just had our 5th iui. The first three I took clomid, the 4th and 5th we added fsh injections and trigger shot. The 4th iui I had 4 mature follicles and this 5th one I had 3 possibly a 4th. I'm in my TWW and have my blood pregnancy test Monday 7/6. I'm feeling anxious and scared that it's never going to happen but I'm trying to stay hopeful. That's all we can do is sit back and not over analyze anything and try to relax. Way easier said then done though! Try to stay positive as hard as it is, and if it fails look forward to the next cycle for another chance! Best of luck to you

Hello ladies! Just a word of hope to all.. We have been trying for a while now. We went through 3rounds of IUI w/ tamoxifen w/ no success. We then started blood work to check glucose and found that may be part of the problem. We were gearing up to start our first IVF treatment and in the meantime got our BFP (all natural, by total surprise) on 6-10-15. First u/s looked "normal" but too early for heartbeat so we are scheduled for 2nd u/s on weds.pleas keep us in your prayers
