My appt update
First off, I loved the doctor and her nurse which is a major step up from my regular ob/gyn. They were so nice and sweet and really caring. So easy to talk to. I loved that she did not talk down to me. She understood that I had researched a lot and knew a lot about what was going on, so no need to explain certain things.
Second, I am excited about the approach she wants to take. She wants to try an increased dosage of Clomid with some steroid. She said that she has seen a lot of women not respond to Clomid and then they throw in the steroid and they have too many follies.
My favorite part was that they are not so strict about having AF to start a new round of meds. For instance, rather than starting me on Provera now and then waiting for AF to start a new cycle, they will do an ultrasound to make sure my ovaries are still in a starting position and start it next week. They will monitor me and if they see that no follies have matured and we are still in a starting position, start another round of meds. That will eliminate so much waiting time.
Sorry this turned into a novel but thanks for listening!

That sounds awesome!! I really like the sound of that approach too, definitely less waiting time, which can mean less frustration time also.
