    we did 2 TI and 3 IUI cycles before moving to IVF....   (we're MFI)
    Brought to you by IVF, ICSI, limited fert, and oocyte cryopreservation.
    Because we're fancy like that.

    We did 3 attempts but I only had 2 actual IUIs.  My first attempt was cancelled b/c I did not respond to meds at all.

    We did 2.  Everything was perfect during our IUI, so we were getting frustrated.  We are blessed b/c our insurance covers IVF so we moved on.  My RE speculates that my eggs aren't making their way to my uterus, so IUI's were not going to solve that.

    3 IUIs, and now on to IVF.

    However, my RE gave me the option of doing more IUIs if I wanted, instead of moving to IVF...but I'd rather take the "aggressive" route!
