After clomid, wad treatment did the Doc propose?

[lawla12]

I had clomid for 3mths n i'm not responding well to it. My mensus was 35days,38days n 51days for the 3mths where i took clomid.

Now, the doc propose injection (follitropin) daily. it costs me $50 DAILY for each injection. For normal cases, pple will respond to the minimum dosage which is 50ml. If i'm not responding well, the Doc may increase the dosage.

The problem is, the med is really too EXPENSIVE!!! $50 per day, 1mth = 1.5k!!!!!!!! :we2wacko:

The doc told me tat to conceive, there's only 2 ways. 1 is to eat pills (clomid) but i'm not responding to it. 2nd is to inject follitropin.

The doc oso suggest SO-IUI. It will cost me $500 for the procedure only (exclude medication n consultant fee).

I'm really not sure if i shd carry on wif the treatment. Is there really 2 ways ONLY (pills n injection)??????????

R there other alternatives which u all rec after clomid?

I'm finding the treatment abit extreme. I dun mind trying the follitropin for 1mth but if this goes on for 3mths or more, it's going to be very taxing!!!!!!!!!!

Wat shd i do ? Shd i seek another gynae's opinion?

I'm really vexed n need advise :bbconfused:

Ha... me again, ask yr hubby to go jogging... wahaha.. and dun stress...

LOL....not him go jogging arrr...its me lohhhh....me fat plus eggs NOT growing...:weno:..sianz...10:

now, i'm on 112.5ml dosage....zzzzz....but my 6 eggs still not responding well...gynae scare if she gif me the high dosage at the start of my mensus, all the eggs will grow n risk of multipe pregnancy is too high, end of the day haf to abandon the cycle. currently, only 1 egg is growing but its rather small , so gynae is trying to push on tat egg ...

i saw it somewhere (cant rem whr arr), tat eating more protein (egg white) will help to make the egg grow...izzi true ????

any herbal soup (dang gui etc) can help too ?

hmm, maybe really depends on luck. But well, hope by taking clomid, i get to ovulate bah.
I put on weight after i got to knw my hubby..hahaha, so actually not only after marriage.

Normally after clomid they will suggest LOD - Laproscopy Ovarian Drilling.

Check it out from the internet.

Hi, May I know if you took your clomid pills exactly from Day 3 to 7?
Did you happen to miss 1 day & then continue with the pill the next day?
Coz I was put on clomid pills for 2 months & I was supposed to take it from Day 2 to 6 of my menses, but somehow or the other, I always forget to take on 1 day... And I continued taking it the next day. So I am not sure if this is the reason why I did not conceive... If you accidentally miss one day, it should not affect that much right... Sighs...

Jogging helps??? Mty hubby goes jogging regularly leh, but I still have no good news...

May I know how exactly is the sperm test done & when should it be done? To be exact, how many months of trying should one undergo before checking spouse's sperm?
