Hi Porsche,

From what I understand that most FS prescribe clomid for 6 months for OI because most pregnancies result within that timeframe, with a big drop off after that. There are other OI options such as FSH which some people move onto depending on their situation.

I've had some things done in a different order to you. I had a HSG to check my tubes first, because no point doing OI if they're blocked. Then I went on Clomid and I have weekly U/S to check on follicle development and have a HCG trigger injection to ensure ovulation on time. It's then presumed I ovulate. I have a BT to check for pregnancy and progesterone levels at 14DPO. Ovulation was never a problem with me...it was just very late and a short LP.

I'm about to move onto a lap.

I wouldn't feel guilty about a second opinion because there are other treatment options you can explore...particularly because you've tried it for 6 months. Don't feel guilty by taking charge of your body and your fertility. From what I've read on BB it seems that taking charge is important to getting results, particulary when things aren't working.
