I just wanted to see who was doing medicated IUI's and who was doing natural ones. If you are doing medicated did you do natural first and if so how many tries? We are on bust #2 natural and Im thinking that natural isnt the way to go. Also If you are on medicated and you think its not working whats your next step?

Sorry about #2 being a bust <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0"> We did two natural cycles and are on our first medicated one now. I am taking (well, took last week) 100mg of clomid. If it doesn't work my RE said he would do 3 cycles of clomid, then move onto injectibles. If that didn't work, then it would be onto IVF. I am really hoping the clomid will work! If it doesn't, I'm not sure if we will do injectibles or go straight to IVF. The risk of HOM w/injectibles scares me, but I would need to learn more about it.

I'm also sorry to hear about #2 not working. We did one natural cycle and just did our first medicated iui today. I took 100 mg of clomid also. I ended up with 2 mature folicles (one on each side). I haven't really talked to my RE regarding how many cycles of clomid we will try. I guess I'm wishfully hoping I won't need to. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Ugh! I know the feeling. Hang in there girl!!

We did 4 medicated IUI's and are considering IVF or adoption at this point. I never want to hear IUI again!! lol We never did the natural IUI's and I'm glad, seeing that it didn't even work with the medicated, =) We did 3 cycles of Clomid and the 2nd and 3rd with Femara. Then we did our 4th with a combo of Letrizole (basically Femara) and Gonal injectible. No luck, =( My husbands sperm count was low though on our 4th IUI which makes me wonder if IVF would do the trick. So thats where were at, at the moment. Limbo!! hehehe...
Good luck with whatever you choose to go forward with. I'm always on the more aggressive side and would ditch the naturals after this cycle, but I understand others don't feel the same way. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> Its a roller coaster no matter what you choose, Good luck!!
