I just finished my third cycle on Clomid and second IUI. This cycle my FSH level was the lowest that it has ever been at a whopping 7. I felt like screaming the news to the world. Its a 7! Seven! SEVEN!!!! Much like Monica on Friends. This was my first FSH level in the normal range ever since they started testing it four months back. On top of that, the persistent fat and ugly cyst that was hanging around on my right ovary for two cycles suddenly vanished and my righty responded very well by growing five follicles. The dominate follie was at a 20 while the others were in the 15 range before my RE had me trigger.
This morning I had my IUI and thankfully Hubs sperm stats were again off the charts great so now I am officially in my 2 week wait. So we wait.
We spoke to our RE earlier in the week to talk about the next steps if this Clomid cycle doesn't work. His suggestions was to go a more aggressive route and I couldn't have agreed more. He wants us to do an injectable cycle next. Our hope is that if this cycle doesn't work than the injectables will. If not, the Hubs and I decided that we will proceed with IVF after that. At that point I feel that we played all our cards and at that its time to bring out the biggest guns we have.
So its the same story just a different day. Testing, meds, ultrasounds, more testing, more meds, fingers crossed and then wait.
