[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, what about in between (and much less expensive steps)? I have pcos and am pregnant with my second letrozole baby. It was a pretty easy process both times - the meds are SUPER cheap; you do have to go to multiple monitoring appointments but a lot of insurance plans cover a decent chunk of it. And even if not, it's cheaper than IVF by a landslide. If it were me I'd try a few cycles and see how you respond - often with PCOS you're dealing with an egg quality issue (even if you are ovulating on your own). Is there a reason you wouldn't try letrozole (or clomid, or even injectables) first? I know a lot of people who had pretty quick success with letrozole, and it's not like you're 37.[/quote]

Well, the doctor told me it would put me at a risk of multiples, and I have heard that it makes you feel like death... but I am open to it...[/quote]

NP here.  Also have PCOS.  I got pregnant with letrozole (which has half the probability of multiples relative to clomid which is the other drug we considered) on the first cycle of IUI.  It didn't make me feel like death at all.  I don't think I noticed any difference.[/quote]
