[quote=Anonymous]I did 6 IUIs, all of them failed. Obviously in hindsight I could say it was a waste. But for us, it was much easier to spend $1500 on an IUI than to stare down the $25k price tag of IVF for ONE shot. We probably should have stopped after 3. I responded well to clomid, even had 5 follicles one cycle, and still nothing. I did have a 2nd RE look over my results while we were researching IVF. He could not believe the first RE let me trigger and inseminate with the 5 follicles. Clearly, the cycle still failed, but it did make me nervous. I got pregnant naturally (after 3 years of TI/IUI) the month before starting IVF. I believe I had endometriosis and that pregnancy made it better because I got pregnant very quickly three more time (1 mc, 1 chemical, 1 baby) while trying for my 2nd. Got pregnant in July, October and January (which stuck). That was crazy to me since it'd taken me three years with my first. Have two healthy kids now.[/quote]
