tuie - Welcome! I'm sorry to hear about your m/c last year. I am also doing IUI w/ donor sperm because DH has no sperm. We have been trying since February 2009 and am not in the two-week wait for IUI#5...we will be able to test early next week to see if we get that BFP. There are a number of other gals on here using donor sperm. Our doctor told us it can take a little longer when using donor because the sperm has been frozen and because you only have that one shot at it each month. I did three unmedicated cycles and I'm not sure I'd do that again if I had it to do over again. I have had very minimal side effects from Clomid and I had two nice big follies this time. I can't help but think that if I'm able to get pregnant, I would be pregnant by now if we'd been using Clomid from the start. That's just my opinion though...

Best of luck with whatever you decide to do...you may also want to check out the Azoospermia thread under "Causes of Infertility/Male Factor Infertility. There are a lot of ladies going through the no sperm dilemma over there and it's a great supportive group.

Let me know if you have any questions.
