We have a plan!

in TTC after 35

We met with our RE today to talk about moving on to our next step.  DH was asking questions and interacting, which makes me happy because it has been a bit difficult to get him on board.  We have decided to move forward with Femara and IUI.  My RE does back to back IUIs.  I wanted to do injectibles but DH wants to try with Femara first since I responded very well to that last year (average of 3 follies each time).  I feel so much better.  Unfortunately, since our tests are over a year old, I have to redo bloodwork and the HSG.  We won't do another SA because they'll capture that information at the IUI.

Today is two years exactly since I had my IUD removed.  Instead of being really bummed, I'm actually feeling a lot more hopeful than I have in a while.  Big Smile

    Best of luck to u! A plan is a good thing! My RE said injectibles are the way to go if you are over 30. She said Clomid is a waste of time, bit she didn't mention the one you are trying. GL

    There are many factors other than age that would determine if clomid is the best route.
