Hurry up....and wait!

Soooo yesterday's appointment didn't go as expected...I got myself all worked up and pumped about starting IUI #2 as an all injectable cycle. Turns out the ultrasound revealed that I have 4-5 cysts left over from all those follicles produced during last month's cycle.

Dr. H once again gave me more options....(I'm so tired of options at this point...never thought I'd ever want someone to just tell me what to do..haha!) She said I could wait one or two natural cycles for the cysts to go away on their own OR she could prescribe a birth control pill that should help the cysts shrink in size.. The BC option should only take approx 2 wks to 4 wks. Well that's pretty much a no brainer! Option #2 please! ....so ironically I stopped on my way home this afternoon to pick up my birth control pills....I just had to laugh when I read the warning label "This product (like all oral contraceptives) is intended to prevent pregnancy. It does not protect against HIV or other sexually transmitted diseases." Isn't that the opposite of what we're trying to accomplish!?! Lol. 

Anyways, I go back to the fertility clinic on Thursday, May 31st for an ultrasound to confirm the cysts have disappeared (atleast thats what we're hoping happens). If so, I will discontinue use of BC and we'll start our IUI#2 cycle beginning on CD3 (i.e. shots in the rump begin again). 

FX the next two weeks pass quickly!

Chat again soon! Amy :)
