    BG, that's one thing that my FS talked about, too. He prefers PCOS women to skip IUI and go straight to IVF as we apparently respond a little oddly to the injections and tend to get what he called a "multifollicular response". It's apparently quite hard for us to only get the 1-3 eggs needed for IUI. In the end, I would have probably tried IUI first as well, but DH's sperm is so bad that ICSI is our only option.

    Jo How exciting for you, the time will hopefully fly by and Saturday will be here before you know it. I have everything crossed that this works for you

    BG I'm pleased that you are a bit better today and that your appointment went well. Good luck with the injections sweety. I do hope they aren't too bad for you. It's great that your clinic isn't going to muck you around in the future iykwim. I really do hope this is all going to have a very happy ending for you real soon

    BW how are you going hun? Has the bleeding stopped yet? I can't believe its only 1 week until your next appointment

    Bleeding hasn't quite stopped yet, mako - but it's back to being more that horrible, annoying red-brown smudge that seems to lurk around forever at the end of AF. I start taking the pill again tonight, and from memory, that usually stops things pretty quickly.

    BG, it doesn't mean the IUI is hopeless - you never really know how you are going to respond until they try it. I feel like my last post may have come across as being kinda negative - I'm so tired I wasn't thinking much beyond giving you the info! But as with all things with PCOS, just because you have it, doesn't mean it will happen for you... look at me - severe PCOS with none of the normal symptoms!
