clomid then FSH in the one cycle?

[juniper76]

My sister is currently doing something similar, but minus the second round of clomid. She took the clomid (50mg) at the start of the cycle as normal, but had absolutely zero response (all hormones were still baseline and ovaries were doing nothing) so her FS started her on FSH (37.5iu) on CD34. I'm still waiting to hear how her monitoring went yesterday (after a week of FSH).

Did you take the second lot of clomid (ie CD14-18) because you didn't respond to the first lot at the beginning of the cycle? If your levels were still baseline it's possible to treat it as though you're still at the start of your cycle (rather than using provera or similar to induce AF before starting again).

I never used clomid
But my life for the last year was fsh, pregnel, overdril and trigger shots
None of them hurt
Occasionally for no particular reason the pregnel would sting a tiny bit but only briefly.

I have no hormones so need to grow eggs and have ovulation induced. I also have Premature ovarian failure.
DD2 was 43 days straight of fsh injections and pregnel every three days then pregnel trigger and two eggs conceived.
This bubba was months and months of failed ovulation induction but first try IUI using fsh (gonal) and overdril

Good luck, if you don't feel right get a new specialist.

Juniper yes i did take the second lot of clomid. i have bloods tomorrow, I am hoping something is going on. on scan the other week my right ovary had 7-9 follicles and my left had 3.

There is alot i dont feel right about our clinic BUT i will stay with them to get pregnant then that is all. I think i will have to have another chat with DH about doing IVF.

FSH now up to 75u each injection. more bloods on monday, they wanted a scan but i declined as i dont think it will tell us anything if the bloods are not showing any change.

hope to have trigger shot over the weekend!!!!
