For anyone who may come to later read this, it is important to have an HSG and a sperm analysis done prior to taking these fertility medications even "just" Clomid. Guess what? If your tubes are blocked or the swimmers aren't Michael Phelps quality swimmers--you won't get pregnant!

Clomid is limited to 6 lifetime cycles because it can thin your lining over time.

I'll take clarity and health over convenience anyday. [/quote]

We did have a SA.

And I had zero reason to believe my issue was blocked tubes ... no STDs, ruptured appendix, surgery of any kind, or endometriosis.  So the odds were really really good, that wasn't my problem.  And the HSG I did before moving on to IUIs confirmed.

I am someone who likes to think and consider odds etc. so for me a clinic that is okay with my preference worked.  [/quote]

A clinic that will listen to your preferences is great, but you are inadvertently spewing misinformation. Many women have experienced none of those things you listed and were found to have blocked tubes. Sometimes blocked tubes just happen--no belief or feeling necessary.

Sounds like you did a few Clomid + TI cycles before moving on to do the HSG prior to IUIs? That is great it worked out for you, but imagine the opposite and you wasted the time/money/Clomid cycles with blocked tube(s) thus no or even further reduced chance?

Hope you found/find success soon. [/quote]
