IUI # 2 - On Hold

Well, we can't proceed with our second IUI this cycle. During my CD3 baseline appointment on Saturday, I learned that I have a cyst on my right ovary that is producing too much e2 (92). Shady Grove would like to see e2 levels less than 50 being proceeding with treatment. Cysts can be a common occurence of women undergoing infertility treatments and they typically go away on their own within one or two months. Apparently the reason why you can't take infertility medications during months in which you have cysts is because the cyst would absord all of the medication and it wouldn't help any other follicles grow. So, we'll take this cycle off and try again in another month or so.
