I'm not sure why she only wants you to try for 2 cycles, especially if you aren't pushing for more aggressive treatment. I did 5 cycles of Clomid before moving onto IUI (which was too many, in retrospect). I made the mistake of not insisting my DH get a SA. I asked him, but he procrastinated. Turned out that after 5 cycles of Clomid, he gets the SA and we find out that Clomid never had a chance on its own because of male factor, so onto IUI we went. Definitely insist on having your DH get a SA. If your insurance doesn't cover it, it will be anywhere between $50-$200 and well worth it! GL!!!
