Hi!
We've just been given a PCOS diagnosis and my FS has suggested clomid and IUI.

I was a bit surprised at the IUI suggestion - I was expecting him to suggest clomid but I assumed it would be a case of trying a few clomid cycles befoer moving on to IUI. And I've always thought of IUI as being associated with hormone injections etc and I would just be taking the clomid, doing some monitoring with bloods and u/s and then the IUI.

I know clomid dries up the CM and the FS mentioned this as one of the reasons for wanting to do the IUI. DH and I are just trying to decide if we will go with the IUI straight away on the next cycle or give clomid a couple of cycles first.

Anyone else jumped straight to the IUI like this? and anyone else done the IUI with no hormone therapy other than clomid?

I guess I'm trying to decide if it is worth paying the money for the IUI straight up. if I knew it would work and if I knew clomid alone wouldn't, of course I would go for it but don't want to spend the money if clomid is sufficient. oh dear... I am so torn, I don't know what to do.

What would you do?!
