IVF verses IUI

I need advice from someone who has had both IUI and IVF.  I had 9 (yes I typed 9) failed IUI's. Considering IVF as doc office has called and are conducting a study on IVF financed by pharm. company (so meds would be covered).  What is the difference in meds, visits to office, the whole follicular aspiration (pain scale on 1 to 10), and the whole feeling yucky aspect.  I would appreciate any input.  Thanks

I did both and they both worked, but with IUI I had 2 misscarraiges and we just tried IVF and now I am 24 weeks pregnant. It really depends on you and how much you are willing to spend.

Thanks for responding. Congrats on being pg. That is great!

How so the physical aspects compare?  I assume there were more meds, feel physically worse?  Financially, what is the bottom line with IVF?
