IVF or FEMARA with Chocolate cysts

Please Help me i am about to try ICSI or IVF but my dr told me i can try femara for another 3 months before ICSI because i have a very slim chance of getting pregnant with femara r clomid before moving to IVF but my problem is i have a chocolate cyst measuring 6cm on my right ovary {i already had lap to remove 2 cysts 5 months ago but one of them grew back and i also have one blocked tube}
My question is does anyone got pregnant with chocolate cyst and a blocked tube on femara or clomid or i have to move directly to ICSI / IVF any advice will be appreciated and will the femara or clomid worsen the cysts and also is it ok to go for ICSI with a cysts that size is still there or i have to go for another lap?

My understanding is that clomid can cause or worsen cysts and thin your lining.  My RE doesnt even use it anymore.  Femara is supposed to be better for the lining and cause less problems.  I dont know if you will have to go for another lap.  It depends on if the cyst is growing or not.  Good luck to you.

i have one tube completely blocked and the other half blocked, i tried clomid for 3 months, and after those first 3 months due to the tubes being blocked my dr sent me straight to ICSI, he said i had very poor chance of getting pregnant on clomid.  sorry not sure about the cysts.
Good luck i hope all goes well for you xx
