Hi! Welcome to our group!!! 🙂 Sounds like you did the right thing by seeking out advice from others! I cannot relate to dealing with fibroids and recovering from that kind of surgery but we did go ahead with four IUI’s before beginning IVF. My experiences with IUI’s weren’t horrible but I do not do well with internal ultrasounds due to painful ultrasounds in the past because of endometriosis and the process of the actual IUI caused me a lot of anxiety. I think by the fourth one I had learned “tricks” to help myself calm down during them which helped a lot! They are definitely cheaper than jumping straight into IVF which is why we were advised to try those first. They allowed us to really make the final decision when it came to how many rounds of IUI’s we wanted to do and we did decide after the four we were ready to move on.
