Can my Ob/gyn do my ultrasounds?

My HMO doesn’t cover the ultrasounds with my RE, but they do cover it if I go to my Ob/Gyn, do you think I can just do this and get the IUI with my RE?

I think it's very important that your RE performs the ultrasounds for various reasons. Only an RE can measure accurately the number and sizes of follicles to make a determination as to when ovulation will occur, otherwise improper assessments can be made and the month wasted. The only ultrasound I would ever recommend getting done somewhere else would be the baseline ultrasound where they're just looking for any type of ovarian cyst.

Dr. Q, thanks for the explanation. It helps to know that there are different levels of u/s between RE and other types of doctors.
