Femera Dosage

[Lacey_lou82]

Hello all. ,My hubby and I have been on a 6 year rollercoaster with infertility. I am 28 and other than VERY mild endometriosis we have unexplained infertlity. Both my husband and I have been checked 6 ways to Sunday and still don't have any answers. We have been to 4 different specialists, and have FINALLY found one that is right for us. We tried 2 years of timed intercourse, 7 cycles of 2.5mg of Femera w/ timed intercourse, 12 months of "not trying", and 9 cycles of Chlomid. We even tried some crazy natural modalities out of desperation w/o success. After all of this I was seriously beginning to think that I had a better chance of winning the lottery than getting pregnant!!!!

ANYHOO, I have tested my ovulation every month for the last 6+ years and I ovulate on my own. I just finished a month of chlomid and I only ovulated one egg. I am starting 7.5 mg of Femera in 2 days and have my fingers crossed that I ovulate more than one egg because we are hoping to start IUI in January. I know everyone is different, but for those of you that conceived on Femera, what dosage were you on?

Thanks!

Lacey

Oh my gosh! I am sad and happy for you! I'm sad that the baby didn't make it, but I am happy that you have found something that gets you pregnant! I just started 7.5 mg today! I won't be doing IUI this month because it is just a chaotic month for us. Keep me informed Sally and I wish you the best of luck!

Hi,

I tried 5 mg/day of femara for my first round of femara.  I got pregnant. But the baby stopped growing at 6 weeks and I lost it about 12 weeks.

I am waiting for my period now still, since that loss (nearly 6 weeks now).  We will do IUI again in january, with Femara 5 mg.
