Hi everyone, can i join this forum? I'm here here.
I was diagnosed with PCO around 10yrs ago and been seeing doctor at KK who prescribe me with oral contraceptive trying to regulate the period. But i defaulted treatment.
Few months before getting married in 2010, i been seeing Dr Benjamin Tham (very gentle and nice) in TMC as i knew that its not easy for me to conceive. I was started on clomid+metformin and the dosage just keep increasing till 150mg clomig and 1500mg metformin. I had my first attempt on IUI by Dr LC Cheng couple of mths back as Dr Tham was unavailable. Subsequently, i switch gynae to Dr LC Cheng (fertility specialist - he is professional, informative and great!). Another attempt cycle of clomid 150mg+metformin 1500mg was unsuccessful as i had ovulated by the progesterone level was not high enough. Just had appt with him today and had 'upgraded to injectables' - Gonal F. Will be doing SO-IUI.
I am also seeing TCM Dr Chen Qiu Mei (last time from Tong Ji)
Anyone experiencing emotional roller coaster? Don't know if its due to all the medication but I had emotion breakdown on and off.
Is the success rate for SO-IUI high?
Fertility treatment are so exp, hope to succeed this time and save the money for grooming baby.

On top of the metformin 1500mg, I'm taking other suppplements that include folic acid, multivitamin, royal jelly, omega fish oil, EPO and vitex. Is it too much?
