When to advance to gonadotropins/iui/ivf?

Question

Hey guys!

How many cycles of Clomid/Letrozole did you go through unsuccessfully before your doctor was willing to advance to gonadotropins, <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> or <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>?

Have already had two unsuccessful cycles using Letrozole, and am thinking doc might say to try Clomid next.

Also am in the South of UK.

Thanks for your replies!

Answer

I did three rounds of Clomid and three rounds of letrozole before moving to iui. Had a chemical pregnancy one round but that was it. I would have done fewer rounds except we had found an issue that we were hoping once solved would allow me to get pregnant without further intervention-it didn’t.

Answer

3 rounds of clomid 100mg cd 3-7, unsuccessful 
Diagnosed male factor. He also took clomid for 12 weeks, twice a week 25mg.
We were not candidates for iui. We were successful ivf icsi, first round, fresh transfer. We just welcomed our baby boy into this world 💙

Answer

Hi, I’m just on my 3rd round of clomid (150mg) if this doesn’t work my consultant has told me the best option is gonadotropins or ivf and I’ve to decide which one😬 so stressful I’d rather he just said what the en step was instead of making me choose and I don’t know what is the right choice! Hope the clomid works for you x
