IUI with Clomid/Ovidrel... swaying blue?
Hey - I apologize if this is a double post, I submitted a post on Friday but for some reason my posts do not show up on this particular board...
I just got my fertility test results from RE. They are better than I expected at 36 yrs old (which is great!) but he still couldn't say why we aren't getting pregnant (which is frustrating!).
FSH 6. 3 - done on CD4
AMH 4.23 - done on CD4
Progesterone 19.8 - done on CD18 /around 6DPO
Estradiol 80 - done on CD4
Prolactin 26.5 - done on CD4
He is recommending 3 cycles of IUI (Clomid + Ovidrel), he said with 3 rounds, he saw a 40% success rate. Did anyone have similar results and success with IUI? Just feel like IUI is a waste of time, money and emotion based on the anecdotal stuff I hear on Facebook groups & forums, almost everyone moves onto IVF.
We originally were trying to sway blue but with this diagnosis and protocol, I’ve read Clomid sways a little pink. Obviously - we would be over the moon just to get a BFP - but if I can do anything without hurting my chances at a BFP, I’d be happy to do it. Getting pregnant is priority :) If there’s anything I can or should do to sway blue with an IUI?
Thoughts?
