IUI for endo

MrsbabyhopesMrsbabyhopes member
in TTC after 35
My RE says I have a 30-35% chance of conceiving with IUI and super-o, but this RE says IUI and super-o will not increase my chances at all. https://haveababy.com/fertility-information/ivf-authority/endometriosis-ivf-is-more-successful/ I have talked to them both about the other's theory and all they will say is they disagree. They both have studies to support their conclusions. How do I decide whether IUI and super-o is worth another try? I certainly don't want to spend $3k of my own hard earned money and all the effort injecting myself if it doesn't help at all.

     I  have no advice to give you- I don't have endo so I am not knowledgeable.  If the ladies on this board can't help you I would post this over on TTTC.

    Good luck!

    I was facing the decision to try medicated iui following my endometriosis surgery. I decided it wasn't worth the cost for such unknowns about my condition that could be preventing fertilization from happening in my body. I figured that it made more sense to try on my own for 6 months and save money for IVF. I did the IVF and it worked on my first try. No to say that is going to be the outcome for everyone. I think for me I made the best decision I could make with the knowledge I had.
