We will be moving to Gonal F and IUI this month. I am so upset. I had 4 mature folicles the last 3 monts on femara. I don't get it!!
Has anyone had success with Gonal F after losing all hope on Clomid and Femara?

I took Follistim which is similar to Gonal F. That was after 4 failed Clomid cycles (and I only ovulated once). The first try on Follistim (and first IUI) resulted in this pregnancy!

I'm in your same boat, three failed cycles of Clomid, so moving on to the Follistim this cycle. I'm hoping that this works out much better!
