I am not being monitored. I am ovulating every month though. I was thinking I may ask to be monitored though because the thought of twins scares the crap out of me! My FS has me on 3 more cycles at 50mg, then we will discuss it further.

no monitoring here either (except day 21 blood test), i wish i was more closely monitored so i didn't have to guess when ovulation is going to be !

Monitoring is expensive. The appointment is $70 (35 back), ultrasound is $70 (35 back) and the trigger is $90 (nothing back). So all up each month I am out the cost of the clomid ($15) plus the 160 for monitoring... 175 a cycle.
I also had to pay a management fee / planning fee when we first organised our fertility plan.
Am I paying too much? Maybe I need a new FS.

Hmmm That does seem like a lot! BUT everyone is different. I feel you have to trust they know what they are doing. Maybe research them a little. That's what I did.......I am wierd I have to research every little detail before I feel happy about anything! I do hope that all FS's are doing the right thing by their patients, but maybe I'm just a hippy trusting everyone?!
My appointments are double that, but she tends to tell a lot over the phone so that's good.
I know that when/if we start ivf all the charges will begin, but I am completly happy with the team so I have no worries there.

I am considering asking for a repeat script of clomid and then disappearing for a few months, is that irresponsible? Unsure... I know there are many women who take it unmonitored, I feel like the monitoring is unneccessary, so long as it is properly prescribed. Oh well, something for me to chew on.
I hope everyone is having a lovely day. The sun is out in force here and it is hot already. Great to have some hot weather after all those storms and floods.
