Great news Alisia, well done!

Hi lynros and theresep, good luck with your clomid journeys, I hope it's a short sweet one. I am also unexplained and finally hit the jackpot in 2005 after a m/c and four years TTC, DD born in 2006. My FS last time did not start me on clomid, we jumped straight to ovulation induction using injections, then after a couple of those did IUI (again, using injections) and then onto IVF. After four failed IVFs we conceived naturally on a break after a chemical preg on IVF. This is probably the last thing you want to hear but when you're an 'unexplained' no matter what you do to try and get some control over this process, in the end it comes down to sheer luck and you never know when you're going to strike it lucky. That's why I don't use HPTs as a rule either. Except last month, which was my first month on clomid (my OB suggested I give it a try for 3 months) and I went a bit nuts on it and started testing as soon as I got my good day 21 progesterone back which just drags out the torture and wastes money!

I'm seeing my FS tomorrow and I suspect she will recommend I fast track it onto IVF. I think age has a lot to do with it. I was 31 when I first saw the FS. I'm 37 now. I don't think she'll want to waste time with clomid.

Injections aren't really so terrible, IVF sucks and costs a bomb, but when you do strike it lucky in the end, it all seems worth while.

Good luck to everyone!!!
