TTC after 35

CD1, IUI cycle

Well girls, wish me luck.

AF showed today, so here we go with an injectibles IUI. 

First, I have to pass FSH bloodwork. Last time it was checked, in January, it actually went down a smidge, so I'm hopeful. I'm waiting for a call back from the RE's office, but I assume this will happen tomorrow.

This is the one and only ART proceedure my DH is willing to do, since the docs say our odds are poor. So, it's just going to have to work!

Thanks for listening.

Joyful

 

Re: CD1, IUI cycle

  • As my RE said, you could be in the small percentage it works for - someone's gotta be!  You could be our next success story like Ms. Kario!

    Will you're RE do the IUI regardless of FSH number?  

    Good luck!!!!!!!  I am soooo pulling for you!

     

     

  • Yup, I agree with Franny.  As with all percentages, someone always goes against the odds.  I'm praying that you defy the odds.

    GOOD LUCK!!!

  • Thanks for the thoughts, prayers and positive thinking, my friends!

    Franny - Unfortunately, if my FSH is too high, my RE won't do the IUI. Last time, it had actually gone down a little bit, to 15 from 17.5. I decided not to go ahead with the IUI then because my cycles hadn't quite come back to normal after the m/c, and if this is my one chance w/ IUI, I wanted to feel good about it. All is normal now! 

    What my RE said was if it gets "much over 20" he won't go through with it. Nor will he keep testing for a "better" month to do it. So, I'm hoping it stays at 15 or better. 

    Kiki: Your wedding is just around the corner! You must be SO excited!!

  • Good luck!  I hope, hope, hope this is the one for you!!!

  • GL!  Beware that it's addicting.  I said only one and ended up with three.  I probably would have done two more since it was my first one on injectables.
