hi friends,
I am 33yrs old with PCOD. clomid did not work for me.so docs started with gonadotropin injections. 10 FSH 75IU + 3 FSH150 IU + 7 HMG 150IU (a total of 20) have been given till date but still there is no follicle :(. initially there were 2 follicles of 8mm each but now there is nothing. doc has increased my HMG inj dose to 225IU for 5 days. i am feeling very depressed as I am not able to produce eggs even with medical help. anyone with same problem? plz guide me what to do friends, I really feel depressed due to all this!

hello Doc,
thank you so much for the advice. it really is a morale boost for me.
this time my doc changed the brand of hmg and increased the dose to 225IU for 5 more days. today in TVS, I got 2 follicles of 16-17mm and many smaller follies as well of about 10-11 mm. now my IUI is due a day after.
how much are chances of getting pregnant with IUI?
I hope we can get a positive news soon.
thank you

HI,
Yes, it can be quite frustrating when ovulation cannot be induced even with medical help. However you’re Doctor knows best. A reassessment of the problem should be done. Rule out factors like PCOS wherein the thickened ovary can cause problems with ovulation. Increasing the doses of gonadotropin injections and using the HCG trigger will help. Hope this helps.
