[quote=Anonymous]I did three failed natural cycle IUIs (using donor sperm so IUI was nonoptional). My understanding is that it is slightly less effective than timed intercourse (since there’s only exactly one chance per cycle). My final (successful so far; I’m in my second trimester) cycle was medicated with clomid; I had five follicles and my RE was hesitant to even perform the IUI due to the risk of multiples but I ended up going ahead with it. My pregnancy was a singleton. I did not have any especially noticeable reactions to the clomid but I understand that this varies per person. I would have liked twins but I am glad things worked out with a singleton since it is much healthier for both mother and child. Basically, I do think your concerns are valid but also my anecdotal story is that medicated IUI was what worked without fuss for me! Good luck with your decision. I know all fertility choices are super stressful and difficult.[/quote]
