hello ladies,

I too had 3 rounds of clomid with no luck. I had one cycle of 100mg and then two cyles of 150 with my p4 test at a whopping 1. My first round this month of femara 5mg I had a p4 test of 11! I finally ovulated. My doctor wants to do an IUI b/c there is some complication with my husbands "sample", so to increase the chances of pregnancy we will go immediately to IUI. I am just so excited I actually ovulated! Here's to happy eggs!

It was recommended by my doctor. It didn't hurt that I had excellent insurance which covered it, so they figured why not.

My doctor's office opened after their holidays and called me to tell me that I did ovulate last cycle with 5 mg of Femara. It was so exciting to hear! This is the 3rd round with Femara and I am doing 5 mg again. Hoping for a BFP this time!

My progesterone level was 83 last cycle. Is it just me or does this sound excessivly high! I want it to be higher than 2 or 3 (like the previous cycles) but is 83 TOO high?

I dont think any number can be too high with progesterone. The more the better. I havent read anything in books or online to say that you can have too much! Yay you for ovulating with the Femara!!!

Femara worked for me - my little girl is almost 11 months old! Best of luck to you!

My daughter is 6 weeks pregnant after her first try with Femara and IUI. Previous cycles with Clomid did not work.

I took my femara today. Ugh, I feel like I'm cramping again. There's a slight pressure near my ovaries. Did anyone feel this?

I am on my second round of Femara and I am having a ton of cramping too. So it's not just you! Let's pray for big follicles. Of course my hubby is not home, he's gone with work so it's a bust for me this month. I guess we always have next month. I started temping this month and it really is helping a ton!!
