Monday, September 15, 2008 | A General Update story

My first clomid/iui cycle is a bust. I responded well with 3 follies, but BFN. During this time, I figured out that injectables are covered by my insurance so I would just have to pay a co-pay. I am trying to decide if I should just move on to the treatment that has better success rates.

 

I somehow think that clomid has not fixed whatever my unknown problem is...considering there were 3 eggs and tons of sperm and no such luck. I also feel that if I wait and do 2 more rounds of clomid, my body will be in a worse place by the time I get to injectables. Finally, I am having such a hard time each month, I want to move closer to my goal as fast as I can.

    I have heard of Follistum (sp?) with IUI. Maybe you should consider asking your doc about it. I have heard more success stories with it than Clomid (and even that it has less side effects).

    I is always a tough decision to move on in treatment more aggressively or keep trying with what hasn't worked. I always keep in mind that even with perfect conditions there is only about a 20 -- 25% chance that implantation will occur. Wishing you luck and a BFP this cycle.
