I'm thinking of doing IUI early next year too so would be great to hear your results. I was going to skip IUI and go straight for IVF but I don't think we'll be able to afford IVF for awhile and so I guess this is the next best thing, even if the odds are a lot lower. The doc did suggest taking something to make me produce more eggs but didn't say if it would be clomid or injections, is that something that comes down to personal choice and affordability?
Good luck everyone doing IUI at the moment!!

Hugs jin, I know how you feel, when my IUI didn't work last year I was devastated, give yourself some time your outlook will improve but I think wallowing is important too so spoil yourself with some chocolate or wine or whatever dulls the pain a little.

So sorry to hear that IUI didn't work for you jin. I hope you're sitting back and having some wine now and looking after yourself.
Good luck caro, looking forward to some news in a couple of weeks

hi ya,
I am trying really hard not to get my hopes up. the chances of IUI working are only about 22% so not expecting it to work the first time, but still taking it easy, not drinking coffee and eating like a preganant woman should. its hard cause Im not preganant but if its going to help, Ill do what ever it takes
Fingers crossed for us all

Hi, I have good news and not-so-good news about IUI. I had 4 rounds of IUI that were unsuccessful, but then first round of IVF worked and we now have a lovely 2yo son.
Friend I met through inferftility support group had several unsuccessful rounds of IVF, but then her first go at IUI worked, and she now has a daughter!
Good luck!
