I am doing my first IUI and had my 1st monitoring appt. this morning after 4 days of injections (gonal-F). My left tube is blocked, but of course my luck, the left ovary had the biggler follicles. I'm not sure of their measurement, but my right ones are only at 7 (is it mm?).
The nurse said I am early in my injections, and that likely I will keep going until my next monitoring appt, but she said they will monitor my estrogen.
She just didn't seem very positive. Has anyone had experience with your less dominant side catching up or surpassing the other as you keep taking your medication?
Thanks! I was really hoping we wouldnt have to cancel this round

Re: IUI follicule question....
I call my right ovary my lazy one. It never looks like its going to do anything and then in the home stretch it catches up.
Have they talked to you about taking measures to unblock your tube? Why did they go from finding a blocked tube right to IUI?
DX: PCOS/Recurrent losses/MTHFR mutation (compound hetero)
5 hysteroscopies/2 surgical
3 Inject IUIs = 2 m/c's and 1 BFN
IVF #1= BFP. m/c at 7w6d. Needed 2 D&C's and scar tissue removal. Mild OHSS
IVF #2 = BFP. Severe OHSS. 4 Drainings. TWINS!
I had a hysteroscopy and they tried to unblock it and said they couldn't. My RE said that injectables will stimulate both sides more than oral medication and that he reccomended the IUI with injectables. I am 34 this month...Im not sure if that played a role, but he said my FSH was good and amount of eggs is good....
