Dx : DOR
IUI #1 (Follistim switched over to Menopur injections) - BFN
Attempted IUI #2 (Menopur injections only cycle) better response on the Menopur then the Follistim combination treatment cycle however my cycle was still canceled due to my eggs not maturing and follicles not growing enough on a high dose of Menopur (Re said I could try a cycle of comid + ovidrel for an IUI) for my second IUI( praying this works for us)
Clomid + Ovidrel protocol worked still a BFN as a result
Attempted cycle Clomid + Ovidrel protocol for IUI # 3 (Unable to do this cycle due to a cyst)
IUI # 3 Clomid+ Ovidrel protocol - BFP Beta #1 752 Beta #2 1536 Beta #3 3797
EDD 10/27/14

***SIGGY/TICKER WARNING***
I had great success with this protocol. I think it may be better suited to someone who is older or has concerns about their egg quantity. I did IVF twice, two different protocols, and was very lucky that they both worked.
I was 38.5 and did straight antagonist the first time: BCPs, Follistim, Menopur, Ganirelix, and trigger shot. My quality and quantity weren't as high as my second cycle, which was the MDLF (microdose lupron flare), but it was enough to get the job done (see siggy for specifics).
I was about 39.75 when we did the MDLF protocol, and the results were much better. I had more and better quality eggs, and even had 4 frosties, which didn't happen the first time. For this cycle, I did BCPs, took the small dose of lupron twice daily, I believe starting a day or two before my other meds, took Follistim and Menopur, and triggered with HCG. Again, see siggy to compare the results of the two cycles.
Everyone responds differently to different protocols, but if your RE is suggesting it, I'd consider giving it a shot.

@Fizzachaudhary-Did you cancel or are you continuing? I've done 7 IVF cycles and I never show any growth at my first scan (usually after 4 full nights of stims).
