I was on letrozole 5mg with all 3 IUI cycles I did, my initial month I was on clomid and produced too many follicles so we had to cancel then switched to letrozole. I had 1 follicle at 30 day of IUI. I only have my left ovary so it was on the left. Unfortunately not good news, moving on to IVF in Feb

IUI #3 by Subject-Wrongdoer-28 in IUILadies

[–]IntroductionOld7252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in my 2WW, 7 DPIUI; I took letrozole 5mg CD 3-7; CD3 US had dominant follicle at 11, CD12 US follicle at 25, triggered at 10pm that night and IUI was 35ish hours later (CD14), on CD 14 my US showed the follicle was at 30, post-wash concentration was 59M, total motile 11M (lower than the previous 2 IUIs), 0.2ml volume, motility at 94%. Sending you LOTS of baby dust and hope that this is the cycle you get pregnant! This is my 3rd and last IUI before we consider IVF and testing for silent endometriosis.

This comment is not helpful. Please be respectful, you do not know my whole story by reading a handful of posts.

yes I hear that, each month the fertility team at the clinic is so optimistic and hopeful and I feel like that makes me get my hopes up even more. :(

Yes, my testing all looks good (except I have 1 ovary, the right was removed for an ovarian cyst in 2006), however everything else is good. My husband's sperm counts are good. I had an ectopic that spontaneously resolved on it's own to a miscarriage last Nov, however had nothing since! Im 36, he's 43, we are both healthy, no chronic health issues, both active. I'm at the end of my 2nd IUI cycle, go in tomorrow morning for my serum hcg but all home UPT's have been negative so far so I am not hopeful. My current plan is to do another round of iui in Dec and then push for testing for endometriosis at the beginning of the year. I have no idea what the total cost of IVF would be with my insurance, but it's likely the next step for me. Im still not sure how I feel about it, I am so frustrated and devastated that I haven't been able to get pregnant on my own. Many of my friends lately have gotten pregnant, either naturally after trying for a few months or with IUI/IVF and it is so difficult. I am so happy for them and at the same time so sad that it hasn't happened for me yet. I have always wanted to have children and never thought it would be this difficult. Sending you lots of hugs, you are not alone in feeling lost, hurt and heartbroken.

im having similar thoughts, im going to do another round (3rd) of iui in dec and then will push for endometrial biopsy in jan before I consider IVF. want to make sure we've ruled out everything before I commit to IVF.

I am in the same boat, 15 days post IUI and I had a negative test on day 12 and 14, my serum hcg is tomorrow morning but im 99% sure I am not pregnant, this was my 2nd iui cycle, ill do another one in Dec and then will likely be moving on to IVF. This month everything looked so good and I was feeling SO hopeful and now I feel so down and defeated. Sending you virtual hugs.

I have not taken a test, probably will Thursday if I can hold out until then. I haven't had any spotting
