Hi- just wanted to share my experience and maybe commiserate with those in the same/similar boat.
I’m 42(f), husband is 46(m), we have a 7 year old who we conceived with no medication/intervention. We tried for 1 month and got pregnant immediately! That’s where the luck all ran out.
We have been trying for almost 2 years to have another baby.
Things we have done-
Timed intercourse
LH strips
Clearblue ovulation monitor
Proov progesterone strips
BBT every morning
kegg device
Vitamins, all kinds of mushrooms/barks/berries/roots/minerals etc lol
Nothings worked.
AMH is at 1.8 which is great for 42
No make factor - at all
No blockages
35 day very regular cycle..
Doc wants us to do 1 IUI round before proceeding with IVf.
Day5-9:
Started 50mg Clomid on days 5-9.
Day 11:
First ultrasound on Day 11 shows Endo being about 7.8mm, no right follicles and a 16mm, 11mm and 8mm on my left. Told to come back next morning.
Day 12:
Head over on Day 12- Ultrasound shows endo is at about 9-10mm, follicles now at 18mm, 14mm, 12mm and 8mm.
Trigger perform that day at 10pm, followed by sexy-time.
Day 13- nada
Day14: IUI day
husband gives sample and post-wash….it’s a whopping 95 million with 82% motility
I do the IUI and no pain at all.
Evening I feel nauseous, really bad cramps and extremely tired. I wonder if this is because I might have ovulated 3 eggs?
Anyway, thought I’d share my experience. I’m in San Diego if any has recommendations or wants me to provide them.
I’ll update this post if I have anything to share. Wish me luck!
