Update IUI #3

Well, not really bad news but not good either. I have several little follicles but none really measurable. I am to continuing stimulating my ovaries and hope next time I have some growth.

5 days on 200iu gonal f

Only a couple more days until I get a follicle check and I will be really surprised if I don't have more then one follicle. I am literally feeling the pressure! Fingers crossed!

Update on 3rd and final IUI

Today I start my 3rd IUI meds. This is my final IUI before I move on to IVF. I am ready! They upped my gonal f to 200 (from 150) and switched my trigger to a intra-muscular which will hopefully work the 2nd IUI was a total fail. I didn't ovulate and had to wait twice as long for my period. Much baby dust needed!

Round 2 first ultrasound

Went in today after work and had an ultrasound done. My uterus looks good no abnormalities which is nice to hear. My ovaries are cyst free! Like what? Thats a new one!  I think its because I actually had a full menstrual cycle from beginning to end. I do have small follicles on both sides which is again... Good. And lastly my med (gonal f)  is starting off at 150 units which is higher then last cycle so I am hoping that will result in one or two more follicles. I go back in for another ultrasound next week.

Insurance talk

So, the other day I had a long drawn out conversation with my insurance comapny/billing dept at Dr. G's office. At work we had a slight change in plans and it confused the billing dept because they got approvals/ denials around the same time. Finally we got approved for IUI but we are still confused about injectable meds so we put an order in and fingers crossed...it will be approved. If not we will try Femara and IUI. Its a effective drug just not as aggressive as injectables. We still have until the end of the month to get this all figured out. Progress...progress!
