This is just one doctor's opinion, and others may say differently! But, if I were to do it again, I would've stopped after 3 IUIs and gone into IVF sooner.
(We went to a different fertility clinic and different doctor after the 6 failed IUI's, which is why we didn't know to stop trying after 3!).
But again, it's different for everyone....I'd bet dollars to donuts that some women get pregnant after 10 or 12 IUIs!
