does your RE do b2b IUI (clicky poll)

There have been a few mentions of this on the board recently but when I asked my RE about doing back to back IUIs since my tubes were so long, I was literally told that it was "old school" and they don't do that anymore.  I don't see how it could not be a good thing!  Just curious. . .

    I don't know how to vote b/c my first 3 were single and my 4th/5th was back 2 back.  So, yes and no.  :)

    same here.  they do, but didn't do it for me.  They normally do it for when there is a male factor

    I said No. I had 5 IUIs with my old RE and they were just single shots. My new RE didn't mention doing back to back. We have slight MFI.

    Mine did because my counts were low (4 mil @ IUI #1 and 6 mill @ IUI #2).  They not only recommended it for us, but very strongly encouraged us to do it.  Thankfully they did, because the B2B IUIs finally did the trick!

    I switched REs mid-cycle and the new RE said with MFI he always does B2B because it can be such a big difference in spem numbers day after day. My first two were single...hope B2B was the trick.
