Secondary IF

11 dpiui and....

still bfn.  Oh well.....af will show in the morning.   We'll give it another try-maybe next month will be it for us.

I was on 100 mg of Clomid and had an IUI 24 hrs after my morning opk positive.  What are your suggestions to be more aggressive next month?  I wasn't even monitored.  They said they would  per our request buy every u/s and injection of any kind is 200 bucks a pop.

We have no known fertility issues-just age is against us.  Please suggest anything.  Anything.

I have two more IUI's in front of me and then we're done.  Since we have Emerson, we're cutting it off after IUI-no IVF for us. 

Any suggestions?

Re: 11 dpiui and....

  • I would say give it the 2 more tries of IUI.  My first 3 IUI's were unmedicated, and I would call when I got a positive OPK, like you did.  For our 4th IUI we got aggressive and did injections.  That's what worked for us!  We are unexplained IF.

  • I agree with 4-5 IUIs total. We also had success with inj. rather than clomid. Not more follies each time, but according to Dr. "stronger O"

    You are not out yet though, so I would wait and see. Both of my babies were conceived on IUI number2, but cycle 3. The second IUI for each had to be canceled. 

  • That also sounds like a lot for inj. Cash price for each dose for me was not even 200.
  • I would be monitored and use a trigger. I did 6 IUI's but only used OPK's for timing on the first 5 of them. IUI # 6 I did one US and a trigger and got the trio. I was also on 100mg Clomid for my last 3 IUI's. Good luck!

  • I would do monitoring and a trigger.  Also, how are your DH's boys?  Have they been checked?

    Oh, and I'm sorry about the BFN.  Those always suck. :(
