TTC after 35

Beauty of tempting = early disappointment

Happy Monday!  I did my IUI on 8/27.  My temp dropped yesterday and today and today is my DPO14.  I don't even bother to test, I know AF is going to come today.  A little disappointed although I know the chance of IUI is about 20%.   I did a clomid IUI this cycle and it's my first one.  Is injectable IUI has a better chance?  Since everything is OOP, if injectable IUI can give me more chance, I think I should consider.  Thought?

  • I am so so sorry :( 

    Regarding injectables - I don't know but I feel that people "graduate" from Clomid to Injectables so maybe that's something to look into.  I'm sure plenty of women here have that answer but maybe pop over to TTTC and intro/ask.

    Thinking of you....

    Me: 37 DH: 37 TTC since Jan 2012. RE consult and initial testing done in Aug 2012: SA fine, AMH 1.1 & HSG clear - on way to IUI but got BFP on 9/10/2012. m/c 10/3/2012 at 6w5d. BFP next cycle which was a c/p. IUI #1: Clomid 100mg 12/6= BFN. IUI#2 (unmedicated) Jan 2013 = BFN. Hysteroscopy 1/25/13. IUI#3 Clomid 100mg 2/23 = BFN IUI# 4: BFN. IVF #1 April 2013, BFP!  EDD 1/12/14 with Boy!

    Thank you so much. I am considering to make an appointment to speak with my RE.  I know she mentioned she wants to up my clomid dosage.  I am not goign to try in September as my H and I will go away for our anniversay. I don't want to stree and think about it.  I think I will try again in October. 

  • So sorry it looks like AF is going to show her ugly face :-(
    Me 39 & suspected PCOS, DH 42. Went off BCP when we got married in 11/11, seriously TTC since 3/12.  Six cycles of clomid = BFNs.  Suspected endometriosis & HSG showed both tubes blocked.  Sept 2013 IVF 5D transfer of two perfect embryos = BFN.  Started acupuncture and taking time off to drop some pounds & get healthier before FET in April 2014.
  • I don't have any advice either, but wanted to say that I'm so sorry it didn't work this cycle. And I think your plan to take a break in September sounds like a great way to enjoy your anniversary plans! Have fun! Where are you going?

  • I'm sorry your IUI didn't work. I have no advice since my IUI's were nonmedicated then we moved straight to DE.

    My 3rd anniversary is coming up on the 26th! Like D&W asked....where you going??

    ME:46 MH:44 DE IVF 2014
    Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive.  Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)

    DE IVF #1 (4/26) BFN  DE FET #1 (6/4) BFP! Beta 1=339 Beta 2=852 Beta 3=9957 EDD 2/22/15!!
