Hello everyone, as you can see by my signature, my hubby had cancer and his chemo left him with azoo. We have tried three times with donor sperm last year, I had actually gotten pregnant on the first try with Chlomid, but it was ectopic and plus the chlomid made my uterine lining very thin. the last two times we switched from Chlomid to another FSH drug called Femara. Two pills a day the first time and 3 pills a day the second time. No pregnancies either time. We took a break and are now fixing to try our 4th IUI with donor. Ours comes from a cryobank as well and they do have a guarantee on the count, but it is pre-wash, so make sure your clinic tells you what the "pre-wash" count was if you want to have any chance of getting a full or partial refund for low count vials...Good luck to everyone! This is gonna be our year!!!

i am also gowing through a ds iui. i went for my ultrasound yesterday and had 3-9mm on left, and 1-15mm, 2-12mm on the right. my re wants me to continue bravelle until tonight, trigger tues and iui on thurs. i was a little worried about the follicle sizes, but he said with the growth rate of 1-2mm a day we should have 3 maybe 4 mature by thurs. any advise on that. i am just so sceptical. i know i shouldn't be but i am.

and to top things off...just found out that my younger sister is doing an iui the same day. she just started ttc, and has troubles ovulating so they went right to iui. her husband's sperm count is excelent. i am just so worried that she'll get pregnant and have a baby before me. i want to be happy for her, but i'm not. i just feel like it's one more stress for me.

sorry for venting, i am just a mess right now. thanks for listening!
