[QUOTE=Keli;2427309]
Liz, oh as wonderful as our DH’s can be they just don’t get it sometimes do they? Hope today is going better for you hun. Hey what’s modified cycle all about? My sister is about to start taking 150mg but so far no good on Clomid, so I’m keen to know what her next steps may be? Any info would be great. PS: I LOVE your anniversary on your ticker, I thinks it’s very special, totally understand about a higgledy piggledy cycle.

I know Keli, I think it's because they aren't going through what we are physically. And yes I had a better day, except for 23 crazy kids driving me nuts lol.A Modified Cycle is similar to IUI. Once AF starts I have to take 50mg of clomid on days 2-6 (to get things started), then on day 7 or 8 I go back to the FS for an ultrasound and to start FSH injections. I then continue to have the injections every morning and to go in to the FS for u/s and BT's to monitor the size of the follies and how many there are (any more than 3 and they will cancel the cycle). Once they are 18mm I then have a "trigger shot" of HCG which should make me ovulate. The next day they usually do artificial insemination, but as my DH has no issues, we have to DTD that night as O will occur the next day (after the HCG injection).The wait is then on for 2 weeks and then have to do a POS test to see if I’m UTD. The FS said that there is a 10%-20% chance of getting a BFP and a 20% chance of multiple births.
I hope this has helped you and I haven’t babbled on too much, but there are lots to do when AF finally shows herself.
