Had my monitoring appointment this AM - 4 follicles on my left 13-16mm, nothing over 9mm on my right. This sucks. That was my 6th Clomid cycle so now I wait for my RE to call with our next protocol. My phone won't let me go back up and edit, but it sucks because I have no left Fallopian tube. I think injects are next.. The cost makes me nervous.

Re: Yet another cancelled cycle..
i'm so sorry. i know how tough it can be to have to cancel a cycle when you were mentally prepared for it.
hopefully moving to injects will be just what you need!
Praying unceasingly for a miracle. ALL welcome!
I have been in the SAME boat several times. I have PCOS and so I wasn't ovulating on my own. I'd go in time after time and end up so upset because the follies would stall. We raised my Medformin to 2000mg per day, I lost some weight, and then my doctor also put me on a bit of thyroid medication. She said my thyroid was fine, for a regular person not trying to get pregnant, but for getting pregnant it wasn't good. After that we conceived twice naturally. Unfortunately the firs time was chemical and the second ended in a missed m/c. But I am ovulating on my own now so I just thought I'd pass this along in case it sound familiar.
Also, with the meds, get them from Canada if you're paying out of pocket. Flex spending won't cover it but it is a HUGE savings. North Drugstore.com is where I've looked. You have to plan ahead a bit because it takes 7-10 business days but it's worth it for the savings.

I'm sorry :-( that really sucks.
I hope your next step works much better for you!

Shay, I am so sorry. I only have one tube as well, and I have been cancelled due to follies being on the wrong side as well, I know how heartbreaking it is.
I want to say though, that injects has definitely helped me as far as that goes. I have more follies, and usually on the correct side. The side without the tube, for whatever reason, always seems to have 0-1 follies during my injects cycle. I think that would be a good way to go for you.
I still know how much cancelled cycles suck, so go and do something nice for yourself! ((hugs))
