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!
My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP
TTC #1
- swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!
Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic
Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

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.
I am so very sorry to have to post this message, but this situation obviously just cannot continue. Please stop buying things on Gender Dreaming for the time being. Until the technical issues are...
For now, please stop buying things...
