I'm new.....

Hi Ladies,

 

I am 31 years old and have a 7 year old daughter. I have been trying to get pregnant for the past 4 years. I have a history of ovarian cysts and endometriosis...but right now according to my last surgery i am cyst and endo free!!

I have tried many cycles of clomid and many of letrozole but no luck with either.

I finally went to a specialist who said to try IUI....i went for my first appointment with the Dr. last friday and they made me go back in this Tuesday for an ultrasound to see what size my follicles were.  The dr decided that he wants me to go back in tomorrow to see if they have grown to the right size...18mm+ so that i can trigger and have my first IUI,

I am new to this and have very mixed feelings...i don't know if we should have gone with the original plan which was wait till my next cycle in March and do the first IUI using both Letrozole and the trigger shot or just try it this month using only the shot....

I am a positive thinker but cannot even imagine how i am going to feel if the IUI fails...anyways i just wanted to introduce myself !!

  • If you ovulate on your own they probably would have tried an IUI cycle unmedicated first, so just be glad they could do it right away.  Sounds like everything is going well - best of luck on your IUI.

    Totally this.

    I always hope for as little medication as possible. Hopefully the unmedicated IUI does the trick for you.

    Welcome to the board!
