All injectable IUI protocol??

DeputiesWife · November 2010

Has anyone done this? I know there are a MILLION different possibilities -- I am waiting for a response from my nurse.

I am just curious as to what your protocol was for IUI's.

My RE switched me to an all injectable protocol for our finaly IUI in December and my nurse clairified that I wont be on the same meds should we go the IVF route that I will be on different meds, which is what I thought. I am just trying to see how much this is going to cost come time.

TIA!

I just did follistim and ovidrel on my injects IUI. The next one (that got cancelled) was going to be follistim, menopur and ovidrel. We decided to go IVF instead.

I'm not sure this is what you're asking, but Follistim + trigger is all I'm using for this IUI, with progesterone supps to follow.

I've been on Follistim for 11 days, the first 4 days at 150iu, then the next 4 at 225iu, and the last 3 back at 150iu.

Good luck!

IUIs : Follistim pen (225iu/day), Ovidrel trigger, progesterone supps

IVFs : Gonal-f vials(6-8/day), Menopur vials (2/day), Ganirellix (1/day), Novarel trigger, progesterone supps

My last IUI I took Follistim only, low dose like 75 iu/day. My RE tried to do a Clomid/Follistim combo, but my body flipped out on 100mg CC. GL!

for the first 3 i was on clomid, bravelle and ovidrel trigger...my nurse said he is looking for something more...maybe switching out the clomid for something else...we shall see.

Thanks for the responses...

Edwina -- no doses just let....we will be doing our IUI in December.

I did an IUI injectable cycle, with 175IU follistim + ovidrel shot. I think I stimmed for 8 days and ended up with 4 follies.

Follistim is uber-expensive OOP. It runs about $1.50/IU. So, 175IU costs $262.50.

I did a follistim+ovidrel injectable IUI. I think I was on follistim for 6 days, at 150iu for the first 5 and 75iu for day 6. I had 5 follicles, so probably too many but I got a BFN anyway.

I just triggered last night for our all injectable IUI after stimming for 8 days. I have been on Follistim (varying dosages from 75 - 150 iu), Menopur (varying dosages from 1 to 2 powders), Ganarelix (for only 3 days to suppress ovulation) and then I triggered last night with Ovidrel.

We're OOP for the meds and I paid $250 for 300iu of Follistim. Also there is a coupon the pharmacy used for a free 300iu of Follistim. Menopur was $340 for each box of 5 vials. Ovidrel was $50 and I'd have to look up the price of the Ganarelix when I get home tonight.

For our IUI we did Follistim pen 100 for 4 days, then 50 for two days and then 25 for 2 day followed by Ovidrel trigger, progesterone supps after the b2b IUI. I think that the meds were like $450. I had some insurance coverage, but also med insurance deductible.
