Update-saw RE yesterday-now we have a plan!

We will be doing injectables w/IUI

We met with the RE (after waiting for an hour) to discuss our plan. Since I did not respond well on Clomid or Femara (I only had one good egg for all those meds), he suggested Menopur. I am not sure what dosage or how many vials yet because I am required to take an injection class first. That is scheduled for 1/27. Then after that, I will call once AF comes, and get a baseline u/s on CD3. Then, the RE will order the Menopur. Then on CD 8, I will go in for another u/s to see how well I am responding to the injections and see whether or not I need to increase my meds. Then around CD11-14, I will go in for the HcG shot and then schedule the IUI. This will take place next month (whoo hoo my birthday month!)

Luckily, we have coverage but we still have to pay about $1K OOP for this cycle. I do have some donated  Menopur, but they have expired so I am not sure if I can use them.

Wish me luck! I am nervous, scared, excited for this cycle. I am just a little uneasy how I will respond as I have heard that I need to limit my running because of the ovary stimulation.

Whew, I think that is it.  I am sure I will have questions about this!

Happy Saturday!

    It is good to have a plan! I would ask your RE about the expired Menopur, but IMO it isn't worth messing up a whole cycle with old meds.

    That is what I was thinking. Thanks!
