Success with Menopur and IUI?

[esmie1012]

I just started my first round with Menopur after 3 cycles on clomid+iui.
My first u/s went well and I have another one coming up on Friday.
I'm hoping to have IUI next week.

Any success stories/experiences w/the same protocol?

Wow, we are definitely on the same exact schedule.  I will be thinking of you and sending you my prayers.
Btw, what is ICI?

SSBD!!

Well everything looks good!  I responded really well to the increased dosage and tonight I'll being doing the hcg shot.  I have ICI scheduled for tomorrow morning and IUI scheduled for Saturday morning.  Wow!  We are on extremely close schedules.  Wishing you all the best! Keep me in your prayers....

SSBD to All!!!

Wow!  That's good news. I will keep you posted on tomorrows outcome :-)

I wondered if it could also be from the time change or the cold weather.  The shots really burn going in, the only part that kicks my butt.  But like you said, we have to remember that it's all worth it.  "No pain, no gain."  
I just got back from my u/s and looks like I have 1 leader egg almost ready at 16mm.  I have my IUI scheduled this Sat, so it really looks like we are on the same schedule. I'm really hoping we both get the news of our lives as we celebrate Thanksgiving.  What a better way to celebrate:)  Let's hope and pray!
Hope your u/s goes well tomorrow.

It's funny you should mention that your finding it hard to wake up in the morings.  I have been feeling the same way.  Not sure if it's due to the increased dosage or the time change.  LOL!  What I have definitely noticed is the level of discomfort I'm having with the injections.  The first cycle, they didn't bother me.  No pain what so ever.  This time around, they kind of hurt :-(  And I have no idea why.  But I'm a trooper and I remember what all of this is for, so I just tough it out and do what I need to do.  Our cycles are so close to one another.  I'm praying we both have some good news during the holidays :-)

I'm so glad to hear your bw and u/s are as expected.  I will also be crossing my fingers, toes and eyes that all goes well with your IUI.  How are the injections been for you this time.
I started menopur on Nov. 6th, so I'm not too far away from you:) So far I've been so tired and hard to wake up in the mornings.  I'm thinking this is due to the increased dosage.  I have my u/s tomorrow and I'm hoping that I'm lining will look good.  

Cleto- how are you doing?  did you meet with your RE for your next plan yet?
