Follie Scan after 200mg Clomid

Well I wish I could come on here and say I have wonderful news and I am gonna O soon but that isnt the case. I went to my follie scan early this morning and the u/s tech said there were many follies but nothing dominant. It also hurt a bit when she was moving the wand around ...I met with my dr to go over the next plan and he mentioned me seeing an RE as an option and I told him my insurance just doesnt cover that and he said yeah its very expensive. So I asked him to explain the u/s to me and he said I have follies but nothing that looks very good. He was just as shocked and bummed as me. He also said he wants to run some more blood tests on me next month if i dont get pg this cycle which he says doesnt look very promising.....WHY ME????!! What is wrong with my body?? I cant figure out how i got pg on 100mg yet i cant even O on 200mg. This is ridiculous!!!! So he says he wants to see me back cd16 which is Friday for a repeat follie scan. I didnt even ask about the progesterone he prescribed to me so i guess i wont take it unless they call and tell me too. I just pray that I have better follies on Friday. Do you think 3 days will make a difference?? If I took it days 5-9 wouldnt I O later??? On my previous charts its looked like anywhere from cd16-18. Anyways any encouragement or advice would be helpful! Thanks for reading this long post!

Okay . . . a couple of questions for you. Have you discussed injectibles? Also, if your insurance covers the meds for this, why wouldn't they cover an RE? And what about seeing a regular endocrinologist? Maybe there is a way you can have your regular doctor take some b/w that indicates a problem that can be treated through a regular endocrinologist.

I'm so sorry you are going through this - it just isn't fun.

my insurance doesnt cover fertility meds just the ob/gyn.....injects are prolly my answer

Sorry the scan didn't go as well as you wanted it to.

I think three days would make a world of difference. I hope your scan tomorrow is better! Let us know.

It can make a difference and it cannot. I know i've seen some folks on clomid longer than 5 days...may he can try that for you. like take them for 8 days. go to 100mg and take them for eight days. a lot of folks i've seen on fertilityfriend.com (well the charts) have more than 5 days and a hcg shot. i don't know if you would be able to get the hcg shot from your obgyn, but it wouldn't hurt to ask him about it. do you have PCOS? if you don't mind my asking, what is your age? I see you gotten preggo before, but how long ago was that? clomid works for some and nto for others, as you know...so it probably worked the first time and you may need something stronger the second time. I wish your insurance covers those types of meds and RE visits...b/c injectables may be what you need...this time. Or it just may take a while. how long have you been on clomid (to get preggo this time around)
