follistim is here

sjuncfan

My follistim arrived today and is sitting in the fridge waiting to be used tomorrow. It's my first IUI cycle - I just finished clomid days 3-7 (only side effect was one night of a splitting headache). I just thought I'd share - I'm mainly a lurker but it's so nice knowing that there are others going through the same thing.

For background, since I'm not sure I ever shared, we got married in May 07. I went off the nuvaring (after probably 14 years on BC) in October 07. Tried casually for a few months and more actively since about summer 08. Nothing obviously wrong except slightly low morphology (7%), but I'm not KU yet. Hopefully the IUI does the trick. I just turned 37.

Thanks for the support!

Good luck to you:)

We're having a consultation with SGF tomorrow to talk about IVF vs IUI...we're hoping IUI is a decent possibility for us as well:)

Best of luck with your first IUI!  I hope it takes just this one.
