4th IUI with injects

Hi,

I'm trying to decide if we should do a 4th IUI w/ Follistim. My cycle will start next week. Any advice would be appreciated!

What are your other options? Do you have insurance coverage or are you paying out of pocket?

I am getting ready to do my 4th round (well, actually my 5th, but my 4th was cancelled) I have insurance coverage for the meds and for the IUI, up to 6 cycles....so I'm continuing until I run out.

I have coverage, for everything. We will have IVF coverage starting in January after switching to my husband's insurance. My thought was to do as many as we could until that point, but now I'm having second thoughts.

I think if it were me, I would do as you planned, continue until you have IVF coverage.

I don't have IVF coverage, but if I did I would do it.....BUT it doesn't hurt to do an IUI while you are waiting....unless you think you'd benefit from a break.
