    Hi atomic,

    An update of my suffering story.
    This cycle I took letrozol ( 5mg ) from CD 1 for 5 days. On CD 10 I had again only one follicle- 18 mm and lining - 9mm. According to doc, I should trigger the next day, but I waited until CD 14. The clear blue monitor had detected the increase in ostrogen on CD 12, so I tried to set the trigger at the time of LH surge . I had such a good feeling about this cycle. And today O + 9 I got my AF. I am devastated.

    I wll not see my doc in the next couple of days, so I can't ask.
    Should I try clomid (have a prescription ) instead of letrozole this month. My follicles grow faster but not multiple on letrozol. Can clomid work better for me?

    Does letrozol or other meds really encrease the probability of conception, if I get on them only one follicle, or I should try without?


    Thank you in advance

    Clomid is not a good option for a 42 year old because it can raise FSH too much. Letrozole doesn't have that same effect adn so it's better for women over 40.

    Are you having sex in addition to when you have the trigger shot?? If not, you should be. That way if you ovulate early you won't miss the egg.

    I would have probably had you have the trigger CD 12 instead of CD 14.

    The truth is we don't know if letrozole is helping or hurting you. Some people have great results with letrozole. Others seem to take longer, or have issues with cervical mucus and poor lining *but I can't know if that is because of swaying!!!*

    If you're ovulating off the letrozole on your own I can see some wisdom in dropping it. But at the same time, maybe you want to continue it...or take a month off and then continue it in the future. I can't know what option is better for you. Follow your gut instinct!

    Even without IUI sometimes people only have sex the day of trigger, so I had to rule that out.

    So you are having sex every day for 10-15 days??

    You guys need to stop doing that, though. What happens is that if you have sex TOO often, particularly when the fertile window is not yet open, the sperm count will get depleted, and by the time the egg shows up, your husband is depositing much smaller amounts of sperm.

    I would have sex every 2-4 days till the fertile window opens and then go daily from O-2 through O Day. This will help him make more sperm than he will be making if he ejaculates every day.

    Or you can use the SMEP (Sperm Meets Egg Plan) and you can find that here: https://thespermmeetseggplan.com/

    Hi kkkk37, so sorry to see that you have had a long troublesome journey. I have PCOS too. I had 3 failed IUIs and 1 failed IVF and at 43 I have been fence sitting and wondering if I should try again. Finally decided now that I am 46 to transfer clinics for a DE treatment. How are you getting along?
