I have had 12 IUI's, fortunately my insurance covered the monitoring. I just wanted to comment that clomid has a risk of mulitples too, many of the "famous" high order multiples are clomid babies. I used injectible meds to lower my chance of multiple. the dose could be more refined. My dr and I agreed that if there were ever more than 2 good follicles I would not have the iui that cycle, that way I was at a lower risk of having more than 2 babies ( of course the chance of identicles does not change with medication)

Ashley,
Really...I thought Clomid had the lesser association with multiples...Hmmmm...
If you don't mind my asking, how much was one cycle with injectibles + trigger + IUI if you know? Of course, I will also go through with all the monitoring because I feel it's a waste not to.
As far as insurance goes...
My insurance paid for the all the ultrasounds, bloodwork, laparoscopy, uterine test, and tube test 100%. The first infertility clinic said that once I said this was an 'on' cycle that my insurance wouldn't pay a thing...You best be sure I'll be getting quotes before doing things.
Even if my insurance paid a portion of the injectibles that would be great!!! I mean I DO have PCOS. I'm not just taking them because I'm infertile. A lot of the coverage depends on what codes the facility uses when billing the insurance company. If they code for actual medical conditions (other than just infertility) more is covered. I remember those days from when I was a Medical Assistant.

Ya femara (i'm not even spelling it right, I'm sure) is just like clomid. Only when I was on Clomid it made my lining to thin so they cont. with femara for the next ones. I just had our 4th IUI this last month. We used letrizole and another injectable. Sorry I forgot the name of it. My Dr. I got to now gives me a discount on everything since our insurance doesn't cover anything and were paying cash. So anyways this last IUI resulted in another negative and were now considering IVF...yikes! Now thats gonna be expensive. But if it gets the job done its worth it! lol
Good luck with everything, I hope you get your BFP soon!

Thanks, Lamp.
I'm sorry about your BFN...If you decide to do IVF, are you going to do it right away or wait awhile?
