[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How exactly does one ask to go to IVF with unexplained? I am almost 35 and in the same boat as OP - finished with first round of tests at SG. I look at the stats and think - why can't we just skip to IVF? I know it's expensive and physically and emotionally grueling, but so is many, many rounds of drugs and IUI while you're getting older. DH agrees with Dr. that we should try least invasive first, but I just want to get this over with. [/quote] you just come out and ask. I was 31 at the time of IVF for unexplained infertility. Had almost 2 solid years of timed intercourse. The stats gave me a less than 15% chance of IUI working and a 60% of IVF working. I just told the doctor that given the financial cost (we had 50% coverage for IVF and none for IUI) that I would prefer to just move to IVF. [/quote]
