I recommend that the cycle be skippe...Hello Janet,<br /><br />I recommend that the cycle be skipped if Clomid is used because Clomid blocks estrogen receptors and that will accumulate and lead to blockage of key receptors like the uterine lining, tubal motility and cervical mucous. If the ovaries are stimulated using Gonadotropins, like your case, the ovaries are being stimulated harder than normal and so I recommend skipping as well. However, that is not an absolute rule and with low dose stimulation, as is used with timed intercourse and IUI cycles, it is probably okay to do consecutive cycles.<br /><br />If the ovaries do not respond and there is no ovulation, then you certainly can try the next month because that is an indication that the ovary was not stimulated adequately.<br /><br />Good Luck,women:s health and fertilityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08894216102467479481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1851682447163727760.post-36245026612746241842011-11-06T08:43:13.893-08:002011-11-06T08:43:13.893-08:00Dr. Ramirez,

I am in the middle of a clomid-gonal-IUI cycle and if it doesn't work I think we'd go right into another one. Is it standard to take a cycle off, even if there are no cysts?Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13792399774589205657noreply@blogger.com
