IUI bust; frustration :(

in Trouble TTC
So sad and frustrated right now....
We were told to do a medicated IUI to possibly get multiple follicles and to better control timing. 50mg Clomid and Ovidrel.
Today at the u/s: not only was there only one follicle, but I already ovulated. I'm so frustrated! I should have followed my gut and did an unmedicated IUI. I feel like I would have had better control over the timing, especially if I was just going to have one follicle.
Sorry to just vent like this, but I am so frustrated. Our chances with IUI were already slim, but I had wanted to do one.
Anyways, thanks for listening.

And @kmdecoux, good luck with this cycle!!!! And yeah, part of the IUI try this month was to see exactly what DH's sample would look like given his numbers. I thought that was my biggest worry this cycle! I'll keep my fingers crossed that your numbers will be good this month!

****All Welcome****
@BunnyBerry: I expressed a lot of my frustration to the nurse, so we scheduled a sit-down talk with our RE about next steps. But, DH and I are now thinking about moving to IVF-ICSI. As it was, our RE put our IUI chances as (his guess) 3-8%... It just doesn't seem to be worth the added stress and frustration--on top of our baseline IF stress/sadness. And with our numbers, we actually qualify for going straight to IVF through our insurance (skipping the otherwise required 6 IUIs)--though I guess mentally we wanted to give an IUI a try.
Either way, DH and I have a lot of work- (and some friend-) related travel coming up in the fall, so I think we'd be looking at a winter/spring IVF.
Again, thanks ladies for taking the time to give me support despite all your own frustrations. ❤️ I wish you luck!!!
