FSH levelsFrom: Ann (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 26 Apr 2001 08:42:39 -0500 (CDT)
Hi. I would like to know the significance of the baseline (CD 1-3) FSH measure. Mine was 14.5, E2 was 65 this month. I was going to start Gonal-F (HMG) injectible this month. After the blood resuls, my RE suggested sitting this cycle out. I've had 4 baseline FSH & E2 readings: 2 were good, 2 bad. The 2 times the blood work was bad was after having an IUI with an HCG shot. For one of these IUI's I used Clomid & HCG; for the other IUI I did not use Clomid but had and HCG shot. When I asked about the possibility of saving the cycle using IUI (may be with Clomid maybe without), he said he thought it would be a waste of time and money but he would do it if I really wanted. I used Clomid in January - March (50mg), but did not use it last month because I wanted to see if that was what was causing the cervical mucus problem that has been cited. I'm not sure if reintroducing this drug into my system when I have every intention of using injectibles next month is a good idea So my choices are this: 1. Do nothing. My cm problem will probably prevent a natural pregnancy. 2. IUI Clomid HCG 3. IUI no Clomid HCG 4. IUI no clomid no hcg My questions are: 1. Do you think that an FSH of 14.5 will probably not result in a pregnancy and I should sit this out 2. Does HCG have an effect on FSH or E2 3. Should I do any of options 2-4 listed above? Which one? Why 4. Does it make sense to have an IUI w/o an HCG shot.
