Hi Ladies,

I'm new to this board, but have posted on Femara and the IUI board. I'll be going to my RE tomorrow to discuss the protocol for this month - Gonal-F pen. I can't get over the cost - $190.00 per pen (doing 5 pens this cycle)??? Ouch! Anyway, is anyone taking the "pen"?

The last month on Femara, I produced 2 good follies and 2 smaller follies, but no BFP. Needless to say, I did respond well, but my doc is being really aggressive, and I'm glad he is. I'm 33 years old...I was wondering if any of you could tell me what the odds are of conceiving per cycle on Gonal-F with btb IUIs? I know every woman is different, but a general idea would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for any and all input!!
Katie

Your odds are a question your doctor can answer for you. Because you want to know what HIS success rate is for women your age with that protocol.

Good Luck

Thanks for the advice. I did ask my doc, and it turns out that the chances aren't that much greater than Femara with IUIs (and I responded really well to Femara). So I'm staying on Femara for a couple more cycles.

Thanks!!
