Success after IF

what finally got you your BFP??

I am curious to know on what meds, procedures, you were successful! ?I just finished round 3 of Clomid 50Mg and got a BFN. ?I am going back in to RE on Monday to discuss what is next and I have no idea what he is going to say! ?

Thanks ladies!?

Re: what finally got you your BFP??

  • We tried clomid, 7 failed IUI's but the first IVF worked for us..GL
  • Loading the player...
  • DD - metformin (1500 mg daily)

    DS - not sure. Was in medical study using acupuncture, but not sure if I was really getting 'real' treatment or not.

    PCOS, Ectopic & M/C of twins October 2010, Currently TTC #2
  • I had 3 failed IUIs with Gonal F and 2 failed IVFs - different protocols. My 3rd IVF was the charm - estrogen priming antagonist protocol.
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

  • I tried Femara x 2 (first cycle with TI and second cycle was to have an IUI, but it was cancelled due to poor response), Clomid and IUI x 3 (BFN's) and Tamoxifen, Follistim and IUI x 1 (BFP). Good luck to you :)
    TTC for 19 months. Dx: PCOS. 3 IUI's with Clomid= BFN 1st IUI with injectables= BFP imageBaby Birthday Ticker Ticker
  • AFter 4 rounds of clomid, 2 m/c, and  2 failed IVF (one with PGD), I got pg with DS on metformin alone.  I took lovenox/heparin with DS, which in my mind made a difference.

    Good luck.

  • We did Clomid, (didn't work) 5 iui's and the first IVF with ICSI worked for us.

  • IVF
    Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever!

  • After 4 failed Clomid cycles, I got my BFP on Metformin alone. 
  • Gonal F + trigger + dIUI.  As I got close to my final try (would have been #11) I added accupuncture, baby aspirin, and every batsh!t crazy implanation superstition I'd ever heard about. 

    My partner likes to tell people it's because I "finally relaxed," but I contend it was more like resignation and "oh well, might as well just try anything."

    Good luck with your TTC process.  May it bring you a BFP soon.

     

  • Lap surgery by my ob/gyn to remove ovarian cysts.

    2 rounds 50mg and 1 round 100mg Clomid (all BFN).  All with my ob/gyn.

    Started seeing RE - dx mild PCOS and started 1500mg of Met.

    1 round 100mg Clomid (BFN) with estrace and progesterone.

    Myomectomy surgery to remove uterine fibroids and a chocolate cyst.  Had to take a 3 month break from ttc while I healed.

    100mg Clomid - BFP that ended in a m/c at 8 weeks.  I had a d&c and had to take a 3 month break from ttc.

    First cycle with injectables (Menopur and Bravelle) was going to be an IUI #1 but had to convert to IVF#1 was a BFP that resulted in dd.  I also used Lupron, Ganirelix, PIO, HCG trigger shot (2X), Met, Estrace, Folgard, and progesterone suppositories.

    Good luck at your appointment.  Hopefully your doctor will have a plan that will give you a BFP soon!

  • I had 2 BFP's with antagonis protocol, but, lost one to ectopic and one to chromosomal defect.  DE finally got my sticky BFP.
  • Thank you, thank you for responding. ?It's so overwhelming. ?I have a lot of research to do before the appointment on Monday. ?I hate to go in there without any prior knowledge and wish I knew what direction he wants to go in.

    ?I am so glad there is a spot to ask women who understand and have gone through this journey and have experienced the pain. ?Since I know no one IRL who has experience this, it can be pretty difficult. ?Congratulations on your successes and I hope to be here soon!

  • I got my BFP with IVF w/ ICSI 
    Nothing to see here....
  • Our second cycle with the combo of baby aspirin, metformin, 5 mg Femara CD 3-7, 37.5 iu Gonal-F CD 9-12, HCG trigger, and B2B IUI about 12 and 36 hours post-trigger was the winner!  I also did 200 mg progesterone supps twice a day until about 10w pregnant, then I took 100 mg progesterone orally twice a day until I cleared the first tri.
    After 20 months TTC with PCOS, we were blessed with twins!
    They arrived at 36 weeks after PTL and bedrest for 14 weeks. Lilypie Third Birthday tickers image
