Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for all of the advice ladies... I called my dr and told him about all my wonky cycles and he wants me to come in on friday to do some blood work and see whats next.
Im scared and glad to maybe get some answers eventually.
I have some questions though... What kind of testing would the do? just blood tests at first? Our insurance really sucks so I am nervous about the costs of everything. Also if for some reason they did decide to do chlomid at some point in this does anyone know how much a monitored chlomid cycle would cost?
thank you again ladies I was really freaking out

Re: Thank you so much!
I am glad you are able to get some more testing done. At my RE's, an OOP monitored Clomid cycle costs $800 per cycle.This covers your office visits, ultrasounds, and blood work. A Clomid + IUI cycle costs $1500 per cycle and includes 2 IUI?S with sperm washing.
Good luck with everything! Keep us posted!
Thank you!
Do you have to go to an RE for these things or can an OB do them himself?
PGAL/PAL welcome
BFP #2 9.12.12, EDD 5.24.13, Baby Boy Born 5.15.13!!
My Ovulation Chart
3 Clomid (100mg) cycles + TI + Trigger = BFN's, Femara + Trigger + IUI#1 = BFN
Femara + Trigger + IUI#2 = BFP!

I'm glad you're able to get an appointment. GL with your testing. I would assume it'll be just blood tests at first, CD3/CD 21 (or 7DPO bloodwork) and possibly a few others like prolactin/thyroid. I hope you're able to come up with a great plan!

Unless you're 7dpo or early in your cycle (2-4), I'm not sure what b/w they will do. I would ask them before hand because if they're going to run CD 3 b/w on CD 6, the results will not be valid (that I know of) and you'll waste money, IMO.
For clomid, it depends on your insurance. I do have good insurance but as you can imagine, I was still shocked to find out my u/s's were covered. They cover all diagnostics, even for an IF code and an u/s is diagnostic. Many insurances cover diagnostic procedures, so I will keep my Fx that yours does!
Without insurance I estimated my trigger, clomid and 3 u/s's (1 baseline, 2 follie checks- which you may not need 2 later on in your cycle or you could need more), about $650. That would be if everything was OOP (u/s's, meds), except the actual appointment itself.
Best of luck tomorrow!!
Thanks again everyone, I was not very clear he is going to do some bloodwork to see if I ovulated yet since I am on Cd 42 and still no AF. then we will discuss possible other testing and what int he heck we should do.
My insurance does really stink its $2400 OOP and then they pay 80% of ALMOST everything else... It just stinks because last year we had FINALLY reached our deductible and we have not yet this year... But ITs all doable if it can help us have a baby.
