Back From Break / MC Mentioned/ sorry for the long post..

Hello all,
I'm going to apologize in advance for the long post and want to thank you for your constant support.
It's been a while since I've posted. I haven't even allowed myself to lurk in order to keep my mind free from it all, but it's time to jump on the bandwagon again. I'm not even sure what my history says, but DH and I decided that if IUI#3 was a BFN, we would take a break. Turns out it was .... but then I wound up miscarrying after my RE's partner shrugged off my pain and random bleeding (after I was taken off progesterone/estradiol and got a period). Anyway, after much consideration I decided to get a 2nd opinion. I truly felt that after my RE gave me his personal cell# (after MC and dealing with his partner), he knew that they eff'ed up somewhere.
So, I'm seeing a new RE and it's very strange. I'm hoping you all could share some of your wonderful insight. New RE takes the opposite approach from old RE. He is not as aggressive, and believes in quality over quantity. He is pushing IVF due to DH's morphology issue, but I don't feel ready for that yet. My new plan is start off slow n' steady with follistim (75 iu)/day and see how I do (I had OHSS on my last cycle with old RE). Due to PCOS and lack of a period, he isn't even starting me off with the provera. He also does back to back IUI's which I never had. He wants to do a laparoscopy which I don't think is necessary (according to my history) and a hysteroscopy (also opted out for that).
I just thought I'd share my news for my new journey. Everything has been OOP, but my new insurance in Sept. would cover everything if needed. I'm hoping it doesn't go that far and I won't need it. It feels good to be back. Looking forward to connecting with you all again.
