That's what I think too....my wife tells me I'm wrong. It IS 25% per try, but the law of averages would say 4 tries should get you there. Actually, for that procedure, it's 25% under ideal circumstances. So, if everything goes right with me, and everything goes right with my wife, it's 25%. It could potentially be much lower.

Man, my wife and I are just starting to really discuss having kids in the near future (next few months) and this has always been my biggest fear. I feel for you and encourage you not to give up! Any update?

Saving money right now. The plan is to do the $3000 dollar treatment next month and see where that gets us.

Good plan. Best of luck, and keep us updated.

Procedure on Thursday morning. Things are looking promising, according to the doctor.

UPDATE: We won't know if it was successful for another week or two, but according to the doctor, everything was as good as it possibly could have been for the best possible chance. My count was good, and the drugs my wife had to take worked perfectly, and everything was timed out perfectly...so yeah, the procedure (IUI) could not have actually gone better. So, it's in the hands of a higher authority now.
