Exclamation !

From my understandng the mother would be given clomid and estrace after being examined. Apparently from my sources she surrogate does see a dr for treatments and uses a calendar with the dr for fertile days its just done at home. trust me i was very questionable about this whole method until my cowroker and hergirlfriend had a baby and she told me. i guess its worth a shot?

They are doing artificial insemination vagininaly not IUI’s. IUI is a sterile procedure and requires specially prepared sperm, using unwashed sperm may result in a server infection and the loss of you uterus. Vaginal insemination has the same chances of conception as sex during the correct time. It really is only for people with out fertility issues.
