Oh, I also meant to say, I found this post on supplements. Since I'm all about egg quality now, I have started a whole range of stuff that is recommended on this page. But generally it's really useful.

Tea, if you are starting ICSI it would be good for you to look at these - for both partners.I wish I had started earlier, I'm not sure if taking them now is enough.

Hello,

I have been taking Provera for 5 days, and this morning I started my period, I still have 2 more days of Provera to go. I should start taking Clomid tomorrow night, but do I continue with the Provera and take the Clomid too, or should I now stop the Provera?

I have taken Provera a number of times in the past 18months but never before has it made AF come before I stopped taking them. Any advice?

Thank you for all your support and sharing your journey, it is so reassuring to read

Wow that's a lot of vitamins, I have just been taking Pregnacare Plus, but reading that, starting to think about what I should take instead, but not sure I could do all of those pills!

Does anyone have any do's or don't that they recommend? I do feel I am already taking enough pills! But if they help :undecided

Through my ICSI attempts I used to only take pregnacare conception, had accupunture and I use to always watch my food and drink too. The time I actually got pregnant i just took pregnacare. My eggs where never that good but I had some A quality ones put back that didn't take and the B quality one did so its a guessing game really.

Hi guys I'm an on off poster apologies
My dh and I started iui
On cd 2 had scan and blood test been told my lining was thin which is apparently a gd thing and iv too take clomid from days 3-7 and i have to get 3 injections (dont know what of) before finding out what happens next
This is my first cycle of iui so don't quite no what to expect
Is it common to get injections and clomid? Has anyone had any success how many inseminations did u get per cycle I heard it is possible to get two
Also do we know anyone with multiples as a result
Thanks in advance

I've had two IUIs, one successful, one not, one medicated, one natural. Both times it was just one insemination per cycle. I think they do two if you ovulate over a weekend when the clinic is closed (in which case, they will inseminate on the Friday or Saturday morning (if open) and again on the Monday morning.

I had clomid earlier in my TTC journey and didn't respond to it, so we didn't use clomid for my medicated cycle. I injected pergonol daily from CD7 until my follicles were deemed large enough, then a trigger injection to induce ovulation on Saturday night, with the IUI on Monday morning. This was the successful one. The unmedicated cycle was for a subsequent TTC attempt, when it had already been established I was ovulating satisfactorily, and I was just scanned every couple of days and the insemination scheduled for the day they thought I would ovulate.

CD2 today so first dose of clomid taken. Is it best to take it in the morning or at night? And should I take it at the same time every day?

Feeling very indifferent about TTC right now. Not disappointed about AF, just very very low. 8 day LP last cycle. I really hope the clomid does something to help.

Lily, The instructions say around the same time every day. Don't say what time though. I've tried midday and midnight and it's made no odds so far

Congratulations Anmarj! :j

Welcome back nadine & VK
Can't help with your questions though VK.
Nadine I went from BMI43 to now currently 30/31, and I can't exercise or do much cooking for myself, so if I can do out, I'm sure you can too

Hope the bleeding's disappeared runner

Good luck t2d, tea, mrshappy

:wave: to anyone I've missed

Thanks tea, I think I was so busy supporting DH through his first Christmas and NY without Mil that I didn't stop to grieve for myself til he went back to work. My conditions have flared atm too, so I'm slowly being driven mad by my own nerve endings :cool: CD14 still high on cbfm, but CP is SHOW...maybe tomorrow I'll get the peak...? :cool:

BZ, I'm taking clomid first thing in morning, so between us we've got it covered! x
