Hey everyone.. here i am again, starting my OI IUI Journey once again for bubs # 2.
It spins me out reading all my old posts and my journey from TTC via OI IUI for my first pregnancy.

I guess i know alot more abt Westmead Fertility Centre now.

I rang them on Tuesday this week with new advising them of AF on CD1. They booked me in to pick up my meds and pay for the OI IUI today (Friday). So they wait wasnt very long.

Cost me $700 (i chose the no claim option - this is where the cost is discounted already, and you cant claim from Medicare)
$700 included all the blood tests, ultrasounds, Gonal F/ Puregon injections and Pregnyl Trigger

  • You Ring Westmead Fertility Centre on the 1st day of your full flow (AF). They will book you in to come the next day usually.
  • The day you arrive, you sign a bunch of forms, disclaimers, etc. And pay for your treatmnt (OI-IUI is $700)
  • They give you your medications and show you how to inject and give you a timetable of what day you have to inject (everyday)
  • On the first visit, they will do a baseline blood test.
  • Then they will call you every few days for more blood test to check your Estrogen (sp?) levels.
  • You will continue to inject everday until your Estrogen levels indicate that you have a follicle near maturity.
  • You will then be booked in for the ultrasound to see the Follicle size etc.
  • If the Folli is deemed matured enough, you will be given the Trigger shot.
  • Usually the next day you will be inseminated.



Then its the long TWW

Hope this helps
