@Sophie: Shoot, writtenbliss just reminded me that I didn't include the cost of clomid. I think one month's supply of clomid is around $30 or so. Sorry, I can't remember the exact price!

@writtenbliss: My doctor is pushing clomid. I'm pretty sure I had a bad reaction to it last month (which resulted in a cancelled IUI cycle). I, too, am going to ask him about femara, and get his opinion. What dosage of clomid were you taking? My doc started me on 100 mg which seems like a lot to me. Good luck to you guys. Thinking and praying for you. xo

We are also gearing ourselves up for an IUI cycle (ours will probably be in January). If you don't mind me asking, what type of medicine will you be taking? We did three clomid cycles this fall and I am going to ask my doctor for Femara instead because I really hated the clomid side effects. Praying for you!

@Sophie: Not creepy at all. Every clinic is different in terms of fees. Our clinic charges $210 per ultrasound (anywhere from 2-4 ultrasounds per cycle), $185 for the IUI procedure, and $180 for the sperm wash. We also paid $420 for an initial consult with our doctor. We live in California, and have zero infertility insurance coverage. I know other states offer partial or full coverage for the IUI procedure. I hope you guys are lucky enough to have some coverage! Best of luck.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I wish you the best of luck!!! And without sounding creepy, my SO and I are thinking of doing this some time next year...if it's not too weird, could you disclose how much this procedure costs and if it's covered by insurance?

Even though you've been faced with some pretty crappy circumstances, I admire your optimism (even if there are days when you don't feel very optimistic). I don't even know you, yet I'm touched to hear you speak with such a passion to have this child. Never give up hope! Even when the odds seem to be stacked against you. Many prayers to you!

Hi there! As a fellow endo sufferer who got pregnant from my first cycle of letrozole last summer, I have hope for you! I had been scheduled for an IUI that got cancelled because I ovulated earlier than expected. Unfortunately, that pregnancy ended in a miscarriage, but I still wanted to extend some hope to you that women with endo can get pregnant. Good luck!
