TTC after 35

Menopur?

Hi ladies,  my RE wants us to move to a Femara/Menopur cycle.  We are not doing that this cycle as I didn't have the time to figure out if we could afford it.  I'm guessing that we can't as I won't do it if we're not doing the IUI as well.  They just got back with me this morning and said that my dose would be 75IU Menopur a day.  She also said that they order 10 vials at a time to ensure that I would have enough.  The only pricing I can find so far is at freedomfertility.com and their price is $70.90/vial.  Does this sound like the cheapest anyone has found?  I have to call my local pharmacies, but everything I've read (and that my RE's office told me) says that online pharmacies are less expensive so I'm really not holding out a lot of hope that my local ones will be any better than this.  If this is the least expensive then I guess we're not going to be able to move forward with any different treatments.  Dh doesn't want to spend the $500 on the IUI, and I really don't think I can convince him to do $1200 a month for a hybrid cycle.

TIA

    Drats- I can't figure out how to do it! I am so sorry that I can't send you a message.

    I will keep trying to figure this out because I do have some helpful information.

  • I feel stupid but I finally figured out to send a message. Sent!
