IUI #1 A bust:(

AkieshaAkiesha member
in Trouble TTC

Well stupid AF reared her ugly head today. I am not as bummed as I thought I would be. I just didn't have a good feeling about this cycle. I asked the DR about upping my dosage of clomid because I only had one Follie. They said that is all they want so they would keep me at 50 since I did ovulate anyway. Hugs to anyone on CD1 boo!

On a good note DH finally got in to the urologist and He said everything looked fine, his numbers were low but not too bad. It was kind of funny the Urologist said we would be good canidates for IUI. My DH said yes thats what we are doing and my wife started spotting lastnight so we think we are out this cycle. I think it's so cute he pays attention.

    Sorry about AF rearing her ugly head. She can be a real B! I ovulate on my own also, and usually had 1 follie on my own. I had 2 on 50mg clomid and 3 on 100mg clomid. Just something to think about. You might want to ask again. But in the end 1 egg is all we need!

    It is cute your DH pays attention!! GL next cycle!

    Me: 34 - Hydrosalpinx DH: 33

    ugh so sorry!

    that is weird that they won't up the dose-at 50 I also had 1 follicle and they wanted me to have 2-3 so I have been on 100. I guess it depends on your history/situation.

    I am on CD2 so I feel ya sister!
