My RE thinks I'm a mind reader

I like my RE. Really I do. Compared to the other doctors in this practice, she's compassionate and doesn't mind a little hand holding.

I scheduled a phone consult to talk about the last 2 cycles and where we go from here. She told me from my bloodwork and ultrasounds that everything was textbook but since MH has low morph, that's just one more hurdle to overcome. Say what? This is the first I'm hearing that MH has low morph. She says, yeah, in his last SA results it says low morph (I forgot the numbers she told me).

It doesn't change anything but it would have been nice to know that when we started.

She was recommending IVF although her rationale for the recommendation didn't completely jive with me ("we've tried it twice and it hasn't worked so we should move on"). I told her I wanted one more IUI and she was okay with it. We'll do another SA to see if anything's improved but it looks like we'll be headed for our last IUI sometime in late January.

    Good luck with your IUI next month.  I gave up after 2 IUIs even though my new RE wanted to try one more.  My rational was that that I just wanted to be pregnant and wanted my percentage to increase from 20% to 60%.  Well, I did the IVF and it turns out it wasn't the easy solution to the problem.  So I support your decision to try again!
