starting gonal F % iui
Hi Everyone! I've been ttc #2 for a year. With my 3 year old I used no drugs and had a regular 30 day cycle. Now, I have a 22 day cycle, O early, and spot 10dpo. I had a miscarriage at 5 weeks due to chromosomal issues (I was on prometrium 200mg 2Xday since 3dpo) Argg! I tried clomid to push O but didn't work. Since my estrogen was too low and LH was too high, it was time to graduate to injectables. I am now going to Yale Fertility Center in New Haven Ct. The 2 hour drive is definitely worth it!! I had a consult two weeks ago. The re said I have a 30% chance of conceiving w/ iui. I feel that I am in the best of hands there! This past Sunday, May 24, was day 3 of spotting so I left my house at 5am to get there at 7 for my u/s and b/w. I am so bummed because I had cysts that released estrogen so this month was cancelled!!! I guess it is a good thing I have a short cycle! LOL! I can't wait to start spotting again! I pray that I have no cysts again! I blame clomid for that. last month on 100mg I had a 4cm ovarian cyst. This month could have been "left overs". 2 more weeks until I spot! I can't wait!!!!

Thank goodness my obgyn said I should order the cetrotide! I went to RE on day 6 for u/s, b/w, I had 4 follicles on Rt side and one on the left. The largest was 17!! I got a call this afternoon that my estrogen was good, 297, and that I have to use 150gonal F and Cetrotide tonight, then tomorrow I have to use cetrotide and ovidril. IUI is scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday morning!. I sure do hope that the cetritide works and stops my O!!!!!!!
Well, Today is CD 8, June 23, we had our first iui! DH had 100million sperm at 90% motility. Fellow said it was on the lower side??? I thought that was good. I just hope the cetrotide worked but I wasn't given an u/s so we shall see! Have to go again tomorrow for another iui. it was fairly easy but the catheder felt like it was scratching my cervix. wasn't that bad though! Im ready for round two!!!

OK, well I guess I misunderstood yesterday, he had 10million sperm yesterday. Today he had 100 million! What a difference no sleep makes! He had to work and only slept for 3 hours because we had to leave at 5am for the 2 hour drive. the second iui went great. It hurt a bit more because of the precedure yesterday. Since taking ovedril on Monday night at 6pm, I am supposed to O today. I have this annoying pressure pain on my right side where there are four follicles. My left side doesn';t hurt because there is only one there. I sure do hope that this pressure is from Ovulation. I did feel this pressure for the past two days but it sure didn't hurt as much! Oh, how I dread thinking about testing in two weeks!!!!
That sound promising. I have done gonal f for 2 cycles with timed intercourse and no luck so next week will be my 3rd cycle of gonal f( If there are no cysts and then we will do iui this time.. what is centrotide? Also, my re is almost 2 hours away also, how did you do with getting dh's sample??? there or at home?
