I tried clomid for 3 cycles when TTC my first son. None of those worked, so i went onto the injections. I had 4 (i think) cycles of those which didn't work, so i went on and had a lappy done, just to look at my overies, tubes etc and a flush out of my tubes. They didn't do the ovary "golfballing" as my FS called it. But she said that would be my next option if i wanted. I went on to do another hormone cycle, and fell pregnant. Apparently that is very common after having your tubes flushed (even thought here were no blockages). The injections for me did make me very emotional, and i had lots of mood swings, but thankfully that was pretty much it for me side effect wise.
I guess for me, I was more worried about doing something that would leave a permanent mark on my overies, thus i went with the hormones, but i was nice and close to my clinic. My mum also used to run the clinic i went to, and so she advised me to keep with the injections... even though she said that she hadn't seen any negatives from the op either.
FWIW, with my next attempt after having DS1, I went back and started a few months before we planned on getting pregnant, so i could get through the 3 rounds of clomid... but i fell pregnant on the first one! and then with DS3- he was a natural surprise bubba
