		<description><![CDATA[ IUI is widely considered the &#8220;first step&#8221; when a couple begins fertility treatments beyond taking medications.  I have had friends state that they are willing to try IUI, but draw the line there.  They say that they won&#8217;t &#8220;go as far&#8221; as attempting IVF.

Whether you are trying to coordinate your IVF cycle with your work schedule, or just trying to familiarize with the process and how [...]]]></description>

Most likely you are not going to spend &#8220;extra&#8221; money frivolously or on procedures that you do not absolutely need.
