View Full Version : Should I insist on medication?

I am planning to do an IUI in January, but the doctor wants to do it without medication, she is going to do monitoring and a trigger shot.

But do you think I should insist on medication? I didn't want to argue with her because I am a new patient. She seemed smart, and nice. I just didn't want to seem like I was trying to play doctor.

I turned 40 on September 28. I had one failed natural cycle IUI in July, which she is aware of. They didn't monitor me that time, it was a different clinic.

I have 9 follicles and my bloodwork came out good, except I have a bit of elevated estrogen.

If you like the doctor I would probably give it a try and see how it goes. I know they aren't cheap but then again, good relationship with your doctor is priceless!

I'd try, if you're swaying pink!

Do you have to insist? Can you simply suggest?

I did suggest it, but she seemed to want to do it this way first.

If it doesn't work this time, I will definitely push for medication next time.

I'm not trying to sway pink anymore, I just want a baby, as long as it's healthy I'll be happy. :)
