Default question....?

hi girls

sorry for the dumb question....

i got a message from my doctors office saying i was all set for the FSH IUI's next cycle... is that the same thing as clomid w/IUI's?

sorry for being so clueless.

Thanks!

I believe FSH is a hormone. They will do blood work to find out your fsh level.

here is a website that might help:

No question on here is a dumb question. I hope the site helps.

You're welcome. I think they do that b/w as part of the baseline testing for a cycle.

Good luck,

Dani

jenn,
when i was looking into injectables, i was nervous too. but some folks on this board reassured me that the needles are so small its really not something to owrry about--and that they'd actually in hindsight wished they'd moved to injectables sooner than they had.

good luck! ij plan on doing injectables in august

hi

the nurse did tell me that the needles are very small - so that is good news. i am going in a week from thursday so they can show me how to do everything. i am really praying though that i don't need it and fall pregnant before all of this.

if not - then off to injectibles i go.

i will let you know how it all works out - so you are prepared for august! hopefully you won't need it either!!!!!
