New cycle - next steps

View Full Post

So I've picked myself up from the disappointment of the last failed cycle. This next cycle is supposed to be our last assisted cycle so we decided to go for a second opinion and try a new clinic. Well we are so pleased we did. The doctor was lovely. We said we didn't want to go the ivf route and he said that my egg count is so low it actually wouldn't be a viable option for us as we probably wouldn't generate enough good quality eggs. But he said our best shot is an assisted iui cycle. It's £1250. Plus medication Letrozole to stimulate my ovaries. But we also need hiv and hep b screening before we can start so basically we can't start until September cycle. I've had mine all come back clear so hubby just needs his done and then we start.

So this cycle is back on our own while we wait. I'm currently CD4 and my AF is almost over. Nurse said to start Ovulation testing from CD8 and sex every other day on all High days and everyday on the Peak days plus 3 days in a row. So we shall give it another go before we go for the iui. I don't know what to expect. Very nervous but also a little sad that the doctor confirmed my low egg count is the problem.

Hubby said if it doesn't work at least we've tried everything and know that we at leas tried. And of course that's not to say we won't fall naturally again but chances will be slim. xx

I did another test today with SMU after a super long hold (6 hours!) and got a much better line than this morning after only 4 hours. I'll try not to wake up in the night and pee and will test again in the morning. Also having my bloods done first thing so will get the results back probably early afternoon xx
