Hello Doctor
I have been communicating with you regarding my follicles & E2 levels, thank you for all the help so far. Brief update, I had 3 cycles of Clomid (50mg,100mg,50mg) of which I overstimulated on 100mg with a high E2 level and my cycle was cancelled. Then the 50mg Clomid cycle I had 3 decent follicles and still high E2 levels + IUI = chemical pregnancy. I usually ovulate on my own and was pregnant naturally in Jan 2011, but unfortunately lost my boy at 25 weeks due to a cord accident. My RE gave me a choice today, I can do a 75mg Clomid + IUI cycle or he can start me on a 75 iu Follistim from CD7 which is tomorrow.
My fear is my high E2 levels and the cycle getting cancelled. Doctor, I have 2 questions, can you please help me: 1)Given my history can you please give me your suggestion whether I should do 75mg Clomid or start with Follistim. 2)Does Follistim have a higher success rate?
thanks
