Dear Archie and others:

I went and visited the RE. He asked about my history and diagnosed me with PCOS. He also put me on birth control pills to induce my period. He says according to my previous tests, all my hormones are normal but the LH level in my body is higher than the FSH. (I don’t know what that means!) He will take a number of tests (HIV, STD, hormones etc.) He told about 15 test tubes of blood. He will also do my husband’s sperm analysis. He has also asked me to take the HCG test. He will put me on injectibles to induce ovulation. He wants to go in for IUI next cycle. I personally think it is too early. He says with successive tries, the chances of conceiving will reduce.

My question is should we go in for IUI the next cycle or wait for a couple of cycles only on injectibles.

I am getting anxious and nervous and am waiting for your opinion on this.

Thanks in advance,
Lubs.
