The introduction of the daily injectables.

  We're about to enter round three.  Had a doctor's appointment today and it kind of felt like an episode of Grey's Anatomy.  It's like my doctor said, "Hey!  Come check this case out!"  :p  More medicine...now, because I didn't produce ANY follicules last try, we are taking a more progressive approach.  I'm taking one medication called Provera to start my monthly, then on cycle day 3 through 7, I will be back on 100 mg of clomid.  This time, on cycle day 7, I will be taking daily injections of a drug called hmg.  I go back in for an ultrasound to check the progression of the follicules on cycle day 11 or 12.  That is when they tell me to either keep taking the injectibles (Which were a pretty penny ordered from Europe, btw) or to take the hcg trigger shot that comes right before our IUI.  I'll tell you: It's one thing after another.  And I'm not too sure that I don't have a cyst right now that would put us behind another 2 weeks.  I mean, if I got a cyst from taking 50 mg of clomid for five days, what's going to happen when I took 100 mg this past month?  I go in for an ultrasound to check for cysts probally in a week, just depending on when I start my monthly (Sorry for the TMI).  I'm not trying to rush the process by any means, but we have been wanting this for some time now, and we've been actively trying for nearly 4 months.  Out of those four months, we've only gotten to try once.  I just hope my body starts behaving!
