Anyone ever take Femara/Letrozole?

What was your protocol?

I'm on my third cycle taken randomly over the last 16 months. The first cycle was given to me by my OB and was ten 2.5mg pills total, taken cd3-5, twice a day. The second and third cycles are the same total amount, 10 2.5mg pills, but taken like this: 1 cd3, 2 cd4, 3 cd5 and 4 cd6. Four days of pills, ever increasing amounts.

I'm all for the current protocol. The first round wasn't monitored (down with OBs acting as REs! Although I do love my OB to death, I promise) but all I ended up with a few cysts. This can't really be counted as a result though, because of my diagnosis of LUF Syndrome (I make the follies, I get the surge, but the follies don't leggo the eggos). With the inclusion of an hCG shot, those follies let go of those eggos faster than a fat kid at breakfast grabs them out of the toaster (forgive me).

So, all I have to look at is one round, C11's IUI#2, which made 2 nice and plump amazing follies which released on cd13-14. Bottom line is I'm happy with continuing that same protocol until proven otherwise.

For me, clomid doesn't do anything special. I still get a follie on time, but usually just the one. (which, I know, is what is SUPPOSED to happen on clomid. Too many people get too greedy with clomid and think their clomid cycle failed them if they only made one egg. Ah, a pet peeve of mine.) Clomid's side effects are on the low side, but damn, it wrecks havoc on my already thin lining. I still get a hot flash or two on the femara, but nothing really to complain about too much.

Anywho, I'm getting way off my point. I'm wondering what other Femara protocols are out there. Anyone?
