Infertility

Last IUI...Then IVF

Just confirmed my change of plans for being OOT with the RE...I'll be doing one more night of 50 IUs of Follistim, then triggering tomorrow and IUIs Fri. and Sat.

I'm still bummed that I only have one 19mm follie, and weirded out that it is that huge on CD7.  My first IUI I had a whole lot of follies (overstimmed) but RE started me on 150IUs of Follistim for 3 days.  Last cycle he stimmed me slowly (50 IUs for 12 days) and I had 2 mature.  This cycle is just bizzaro - I have one lonely follie and I've only been stimming for 5 days.  It bothers me that I keep having less follies at trigger each IUI.  I am hoping this is b/c of how I was stimmed and not that I'm just producing less follies...but I'm in a constant state of worry.  This is my last IUI before we move onto IVF...   

Ugh.  This is all such a roller coaster.  Sometimes I feel positive, but I don't know if I ever feel excited like some of you ladies do.  I wish I could.  Most of the time I feel anxious/stressed about all this. 

Thanks for listening...hope everyone is having a good night!!

Re: Last IUI...Then IVF

  • Good luck!!!!!!

    I really hope that this IUI works so that you don't have to move on to IVF.  I understand being anxious and stressed.  I definitely go though many emotions during each cycle and each cycle has been different.

    Remember you only need one!

    cycles are so weird and such roller coasters but sometimes imperfect cycles can lead to perfect babies.
