Hi,

This is my first IUI and first time using Follistim- injectable stimulants.

I am on CD 24 and shot #22!!!

It’s taking foreverrr to find the right dose for me. I started at 75IU on CD3 and am now on day two of 175iu at CD24.

I have zero mature follicles and haven’t been responding at all. My estrogen is at 75.2. I have a scan tomorrow hoping that I have something to show for all these injections but I’m getting super impatient and hopeless. At what point do they stop you? I’m so bloated and massive headaches.

Has this happened to anyone before??

Who has had to take a super high dose to react?

How long did it take you to get there?

How many follicles did you end up with?

Success rates?
