sorry didnt see all the info you posted, was too busy typing. Well, i seem to fit in the criteria for the good stuff - ttc less than 3 years, scan showed definate pc ovaries, and i had v. high lh levels before the procedure. Gyny didnt me to have bloods done afterwards eg next month either, seemed to think it would add to pressure.
Yes, but at least i would have known where i am a bit more [grrrrrrrr]

This one's better:

How Well It Works

Studies of women with PCOS have shown that ovarian drilling results in an 80% ovulation rate and a 50% pregnancy rate.1

Younger women and those with a body mass index in the normal range are most likely to benefit from laparoscopic ovarian drilling

Found this pcm

A study published in the British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology
in March 1998 discusses success rates in achieving pregnancy after
ovarian drilling. The study enrolled 118 women with documented cases
of PCOS and then performed the procedure on them over a five-year
period. The total conception rate within the first 12 months after the
procedure was 54%. Women who successfully conceived had had ?a shorter
duration of infertility, were treated with diathermy (rather than
laser), had higher pre-operative luteinising hormone [LH] levels, were
younger and were more likely to have ultrasonographic evidence of
polycystic ovarian disease.? When considering only women who had been
infertile for 3 years or less prior to the procedure, the success rate
increases to 79%.

Will look for more...

I'm good generally. Been feeling a bit pukey, but that makes me feel more positive than anything and it's not as bad as for other girls.

Spoke to my sister last night. That was upsetting. She's still in a state. I'm sending her all the info from the miscarriage/bereavement postings, so hoping that will start to help.

coggy · 12/10/2006 11:48

No facts or links from me I'm afraid PCM.
You're the first person I have heard of who's had it done........so there's your interesting and true fact.....no need to make any up!!!!!

Natty had clomid for the first month last cycle BTW.

Right.......start thinking about lunch....must go and rummage in the fridge!!!!

HalloweenSucks · 12/10/2006 11:46

Breathe in ladies...

Right, let's get one thing straight. A crumpet is a sexually promiscuous woman as in 'ooh what a nice bit of crumpet', it is not something in which to partake with cups of tea and vicars. Quite disturbed at you all nipping in for a bit of crumpet. It's a pikelet where I come from.

Anyway, morning all. Had the morning off work to do some Christmas shopping with DH, wandered round town for a while, had a cup of tea, did zero shopping. Still it was lovely and I'm currently at work (skiving more like).

I know nowt about Clomid I'm afraid, sounds like the pill, everybody takes different amounts at different times, all hoping for the same result.

Right, where's my pikelet?

How are you doing Juicy?

Juicylucythe2nd · 12/10/2006 11:35

Nudge over girls - room on the sofa for a lazy one??

The whole clomid thing is a mystery to me.

I have enough trouble remembering to take folic acid!

coggy · 12/10/2006 11:32

Now see what you've started PCM!!!!!!

coggy · 12/10/2006 11:32

Weird how it can change!!

Natty1806 · 12/10/2006 11:27

i take them CD2-CD6 5 tablets.

am very confussed now.

trace2 · 12/10/2006 11:13

and i was given just right amout to,

trace2 · 12/10/2006 11:12

yes i read on clomid thread about some take from day 3 for 5 days, but i googled and it said they think it works better the eaier you take on af, i only took the 50 mg, he would not put me up coz if i needed i could take longer.

coggy · 12/10/2006 11:08

BAD typing....hope you can understand!!

I must cut my finger nails!!!!!

coggy · 12/10/2006 11:07

Well.................they come in 30s and most people are perscribed them for six months.

I was only 'allowed' three months as I have already had some in the past.
Also....some people are on higher dossages and so need to take more.....I am on thre tiniest little does and just take one.

Seems a waste of NHS money not to just give you what you need rather than a standard box of 30 doesn't it?

My cons perscribed them CD2 - 5 but I have heard several people having them at slightly diff cycle days eg. CD1 - 5, CD2 - 6.

I'm not worried that this has affected my chances as at my scans thay always say how well I've responded but may try an extra tablet next month just to see.....can't hurt can it?
