Default Onto Follistim

I officially found out today that I am Clomid resistant. YAY :o/
Was on 50, 100 and 150mgs with no ovulation.

Right now starting provera and waiting for AF. I will start Follistim soon.

Anyone on here have success? I've seen the stats and the ovulation rates are pretty decent (they were decent on Clomid too, but you see where that got me...), but the pregnancy rates aren't that great.

What other meds were you on with the Follistim? I will also be on Garilinex (however you spell) and Ovidrel.

I know there is a funky follistiming cysters thread--but I can't find it. Anyone tell me where it's at?

Thanks ladies!

I was also resistant to Clomid (up to 200mg). I conceived my DS with Follistim and back to back IUIs. Good luck!

I just completed my first follistim cycle after multiple rounds of Femara. I used an HCG trigger (Novarel, I think), and did an IUI. I got a BFP first try (though still waiting to see if it is sticking).

The follistim thread is under "Infertility" and "TTC Buddies".
