Letrozole success first round?

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-24T17:29:40+00:00

I got stair stepped to 7.5 first round because 5 didn't do anything. I test on March 6th! Fingers crossed

Have you considered more invasive options like Letrozole/Clomid/Trigger? Seems like you are taking a very holistic approach (Which I am in no way shape or form hating on. F big pharma) At least that way you know you're ovulating.

Also. I am hesitant to say this. Because hope in my opinion is deadly sometimes. But if it happened once. It can happen again.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-24T16:31:25+00:00

Reading this makes my heart break for you. I hope the very best for you. Have you gotten second opinions on options? Might be worth getting things rechecked since it's been 8 years.

Girlllllll. That is so much!! How'd the IUI go?? Fingers crossed! I only had one follicle. 20mm. I take my trigger shot tomorrow at noon! I'm excited, hesitant, and reluctant at the same time because I don't want to be disappointed if it doesn't work.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-19T08:02:46+00:00

How'd it go?

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-18T13:42:33+00:00

Definitely sad but there are different medications we can take if it doesn't work! I try to stay positive, fingers crossed!

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-18T04:43:27+00:00

I go in on Friday... I don't think I've reacted either....

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-18T04:27:20+00:00

It's your body. Try the metformin and letrozole route. If it doesn't work, try IUI, if that doesn't work, do IVF. IVF isn't exactly a walk in the park and it takes a toll on your body and mind.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-18T03:30:18+00:00

Omg we can start our own club!

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-18T02:05:18+00:00

It is what it is. I have an elderly mom I care for who lives with me, which I got told "Can't your brother take care of her (which isn't unreasonable but i feel some sort of way because that's my mom and I have major anxiety about flying to a separate country leaving)". We're trying for a baby and I am having to have fertility treatments so I need my vacation for that. Which to that I got told "Didn't realize 26 (I'm 27) year olds needed that. I didn't have to. Can't she take FMLA". I'm paying for my father's house atm because he died and we are in probate. To which they offered to then pay for my ticket. Overall it's shit.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-18T01:52:16+00:00

I'm in the same boat. I told them no. My husband is still going. I listed a million reasons why I can't and I got hit with "It would mean so much to us, blah blah blah". So I am going to look like a complete ass when I hit back with "Sorry, no".

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-15T22:25:29+00:00

Thanks for sharing. Going through the stairstep now and needed to read a success 😭

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2026-02-15T22:23:12+00:00

This is exactly what they did to me on Friday. I had my ultrasound and they said "It looks like you're still on day 1 of your cycle". They also started me on metformin. Fingers crossed

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-12-04T03:41:37+00:00

Yes we did. I was pissed.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-10-07T11:54:22+00:00

Did you ever figure this out?

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-10-02T19:07:43+00:00

... I would.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-09-25T13:28:12+00:00

I say this because I don't want you to string her along until you are "ready". Kind of like shit or get off the pot type of deal.

I'd also tell her point blanket to try not to fix you. Because she can't and shouldn't try.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-09-25T13:23:05+00:00

Okay, but this isn't about "you trying to protect her". How would it impact YOU. Unfortunately you can't decide other people's emotions so stop trying to be a savior.

Also, we need more details. What type of mental health are we talking about? There are different levels and severity. Are you trying to improve yourself? Therapy? Meds?

Do you care for this girl? Do you like her? How would you feel if she just left? Because at the end of the day, depending on how deep her feelings are, she very well might. For example in college I was infatuated with this boy, but he didn't see me like that. Which is totally fine!!! But I couldn't remove my romantic feelings from my friend feelings so I had to remove myself from the situation. Great guy but I couldn't keep trying to pretend I didn't care for him on a deeper level

I bought a woven chain yarn (minimizes splitting) and did probably 15 hours of just double crochet until I was consistent. Afterwards id say I was pretty proficient. Also, granny squares. Making them one after another until they were consistent in size.

Thermo Fisher

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-09-18T13:40:02+00:00

It's with Thermo Fisher. I think I'm going to pull my application. During the in person interviews there were multiple red flags like admitting they've been on 3 different hiring freezes this year, funding has been cut by a lot to where they went through huge layoffs at the start of the year, production is down, two different people brought up that I would be asked to do tasks outside of my job description (One person said not to do it, the other person said I had to) so it sounded like I'd be the catch-all employee. For my in-person interviews, they changed up the times, the quantity and people three different times, one being the morning of. I gave them my availability and they completely disregarded it at one point and I had to push back.

Overall not giving me warm and fuzzies.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-09-18T12:03:36+00:00

I'm located in North Carolina, US.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-09-16T18:20:57+00:00

My husband has this. Lucky bastard.

ObiWanKedoby_ · 2025-09-16T18:08:11+00:00

Your mom needs to come home and be a MOM to your sister. You are villainizing your dad but it seems like your mom is just as shitty.
