Clomid Cycle #4

So I start this cycle with Clomid from CD2 to CD6 (as per previous cycles) and went back to see Dr Chin on CD14 (as told in my last consultation). The purpose of today's visit was to do an ultrasound scan. Well, Dr Chin reported that there's a good follicle measuring 1.63 cm x 1.54 cm, so it seems like nothing's wrong.

Today's bill:
Consultation$90
Ultrasound scan$120
TOTAL (including GST)$224.70

Next step: hysterosalpingogram test (if I still don't get pregnant).

Third Visit to Dr Chin

The past two cycles with Clomid didn't help to get me pregnant, even though OPK was positive on CD15, so I told DH to get his SA done.

Today is CD27 of my 3rd cycle with Clomid, which means AF is due to appear tomorrow if it's BFN again. (No, I have no guts to use the HPT.) And today, we were back in Dr Chin's clinic again. We got DH's SA result and Dr Chin said that there's no major issue. She gave me another round of Clomid and told me to return to her clinic for a scan around CD14.

Today's bill:
Consultation$90
Ovulation Kit (5 pieces)$35
Clomid (5 tablets)$10
TOTAL (including GST)$144.45

I'm really desperate to get a SG50 baby and the next cycle would be our last chance.

Second Visit to Dr Chin

The OPKs didn't show two dark lines at all, so on CD18, I picked up my phone and made an appointment to see Dr Chin. After waiting for two week, DH and I were in her clinic again.

Today is CD6. Thankfully, I'm still in time for my first dose of Clomid. Typically, the practice now is to take Clomid from CD2 to CD6. But Dr Chin said that in the past, Clomid was taken slightly later in the cycle, so we still can give it a try for this cycle.

To avoid having to make frequent trips to her clinic, she prescribed enough medication for 2 to 3 cycles. I was instructed to take 50 mg Clomid daily from today onwards and use the OPK on CD11 to CD18 (as per last cycle). If LH surge is detected, I am to take the same dosage on CD2 onwards for the next cycle (if I don't get pregnant). However, if no LH surge is detected this cycle, then I am to increase the dosage to 100 mg daily from CD2 onwards for the next cycle.

Before we leave, Dr Chin also informed her nurse to supply DH with a sample bottle and told us that he can have his sperms analysed whenever he's ready. He just have to call the clinic, the nurse will make an appointment with the lab, and he will be given a date to submit his sample.

Today bill:
Consultation$100
Ovulation kit (5 pieces x 3 boxes)$105
Clomid (5 tablets x 3 packs)$30
TOTAL (including GST)$251.45
