Not sure what the next step is.

Was one of your laps after the 8 months of clomid? If not, it may be worth considering another. A lap could investigate the alleged tilted uterus issue and also remove any endo that has re-grown. Clomid does tend to make endo re-grow much more quickly.

Otherwise, the next step is usually FSH injections, either with or without IUI. After IUI you're looking at IVF. But if your insurance/financial situation rules both of those out, then you either keep doing what you're doing (not really advisable with clomid which is usually recommended to be used only 6 cycles in a lifetime) or you could try femara instead or else you walk away from assisted conception.

Well I stopped taking the Clomid at the advisement of doctor number #2. My first doctor didn't explain to me what was going on very thoroughly. I had my 2nd lap after I finished the last Clomid cycle.

Juniper, can you explain the 6 cycles on clomid in a lifetime thing? It took 1 cycle with my daughter and 2 with my son, so that's 3 all up but what if I want a few more kids ill be over the 6 for sure!

It's best to discuss with your Dr, but I was told that anything more than 6 cycles increases your risk of ovarian cancer. I'm not sure how much the risk increases though - it may be a small amount?
