These are the doctors suggestions:
We've decided on a combined protocol...
CD1 - Call doctor to inform him AF is here.
CD2 - Baseline B/W
CD3 thru CD7 - Clomid 150mg
CD8 - General U/S (RE loves seeing the fact that my follicles dont grow)
CD9 thru CD12 - (2) 75iu of Gonal-F a day.
CD12 - Start using OPK
CD13 - U/S to measure follicles for any growth.
RE doesnt really think this will work (since Ive been on clomid for so long) but i wanna give it a try and DH insist this will work. He said if this doesnt work they i have to stop being stubborn and do the full injection cycle :-(
Love my RE. He's very patient with us.
***The Twist: the tricky part is that he is not giving me a HCG injection with the combined protocol. He says that Im too tiny and young(like i didnt know that) and DH has a very good sperm count so he doesnt want to many babies in their.
Sorry for this being so long... question is... since i ovulate on clomid but my folllicles dont get big, will the FSH injection help? even without the HCG?
He said start OPK on CD12, when i used clomid 100mg on cd3-7 i dont ovulate until cd21 and when i do it on cd2-6 i O on cd16, so will the fsh earlier if combined with clomid in a higher dose?
They is driving me nuts.
Please help!!!
