Unexplained Infertility

Previously posted in the wrong topic so here I go again...

I was wondering if anyone has any advice or been in a similar situation as me.

I've been recently referred to the assisted conception unit by my gp, I have done all the usual tests so has my partner and all have come back normal and not shown any issues. I have regular periods and ovulate every month. The words that tend to keep being mentioned is "unexplained infertility". At my last appointment I was told I would be given Clomid for 6 cycles. I wasn't expecting to be given this and thought I would be doing IVF.

Is this normal procedure before they recommend IVF??

I'm nearly 33 and feel like I am running out of time, I've never been pregnant and have been trying for years...my partner and I have been together for 15 years and have never managed to conceive so we feel like Clomid is just a waste of time and would rather do IVF straight away instead of wasting another 6 months.
