IUI or IVF for next try?

I've done IUI 4 times so far. First time unmedicated, negative, second time with Clomid, + but 5 wk loss, 3rd time Clomid negative. Im in round 4 now but timing may have been off, My REI was pretty strict about going by bloodwork and not home OPK which showed an LH surge a day earlier.
If this 4th time does not work I'm strongly considering IVF. I'm 38 y.o. and potentially want more than 1 child but I know 4 tries is not really a lot, also, insurance does not cover any of this.
From other posts I've seen a lot of women comment that they would have gone to IVF sooner. Thoughts?

Best of luck to you!
Good Luck!
I feel that the deeper I get into this the more decisions to be made, such as frozen or fresh transfer? PGS or no? I've come to the conclusion that fresh transfer and PGS and freeze the rest would be the most efficient.
Not looking forward to the shots, bloodwork, monitoring, and unpredictability of when the retrieval will happen, but I just keep telling myself it's only a few weeks.
