Hi!
There is no reason why this couldn't work. (Presuming of course that you have had an hsg and know that your tubes are not blocked-- and I wouldn't recommend going this far before having that tested).  Most doctors add the IUI because it improves the odds and increases the chances of conception.

Also, I hope that you are under the care of a specialist if you are going to try medications this powerful.  Possibility of higher order multiple gestation and also hyperstimulation syndrome are markedly increased with these meds.

Good luck!
