I've been struggling with infertility for several years and my RE always felt I was a great candidate for IVF. Now that 40 is just around the corner, she is suggesting I go through the clomid challenge test.

Can anyone give me some advice as to what this is and what I may expect from it? The nurse at my RE's office says it's a "kick start" to my ovaries, but I've also read horror stories where an insurance company will refuse IVF if I don't "pass" this test.
