RmJohns92: hmz819: If you are having trouble conceiving you need to see an RE.
this exactly. Their are some of us ladies that drive several hours to go and see our RE. I drive 3 + hours to go and see mine.
I completely agree. I think you are wasting time seeing an ob. Odds are slim anyone is going to go the clomid route with you anymore since you've taken it for so long (my RE won't go over 6 total cycles). Is it just cost you are concerned with? Your insurance, if you have it, should cover the same with an RE as with your ob. You certainly don't have to do Ivf, but could do injectable meds WITH monitoring and an Iui and that would be less than $600, but increase your odds significantly over what you've been doing. You need more testing if you haven't had it yet, sperm analysis, hsg, bloodwork for hormone levels, follicle counts, etc, etc... If these things aren't done you would be wasting a huge amount of money with an ob if there was a problem and it wasn't caught.
