I'm jumping the gun with this question but I was just curious. I've done clomid w/ IUI, I am now starting repronex w/ IUI. If that fails 3x or so, what is next? Is there a step between where I am and IVF?
You guys are so wise and helpful!

I don't know of any step in between injectibles/IUI and IVF. Can you ask your RE for a treatment plan that shows, if...then...? That way you'll know what the long-term plan is (which you hopefully won't need to bother with!). If you need to go to IVF, it's really not that bad. Hopefully you'll get a BFP next month though! Best of luck!

my previous RE told me on my first consultation, that the common steps are:
1. timed intercourse with/without clomid
2. clomid/IUI
3. injectables/IUI
4. IVF (or other similiar procedures, like GIFT,
IVF/ICSI)
so, I really don't think there is a method inbetween.
good luck.
