Hello, hope you don't mind me jumping in on this thread.

I am on my third natural IUI with donor sperm and the last two times were unsucessful. The last two I went in on the same day of my LH surge as advised by the nurse, but I now wondering if this is too early and if this time I should go in on the day after?

Can I ask when did you test in the morning or afternoon?

Hiya,

Wwell I was told to do this with the first wee of the day, but realised this cant be right. I did a bit off research and it said the best time to test was after 10am. I did this I tried not to have any fluids about an hour before hand so the wee wasnt diluted.
Once I started testing after this my OPK were working great where as before I couldnt understand why the line wasnt appearing as clear and confused me.
Once I had a pink line which was pretty dark (similar to the control line)
I called and had treatment the next day in the afternoon. I was told not to call until the test line was exactly the same to the control line. Sorry I do go on!

hope this helps??

I am using ClearBlue fertility monitor and it says to test first thing in the morning... what it means however when FM shows peak fertility (LH surge) CB digital test shows nothing until later (sometimes at night) that day!!
Based on Basal Body Temperature charting however, it looks like CB FM can detect LH surge a bit early - as last time my ovulation didn't happen until 2 days after - meaning that I had my IUI a day before ovulation and not on the day ovulation as I was supposed too!

Btw my clinic advises to do IUI next day (afternoon) after the morning LH surge is detected - to align IUI with ovulation. The defrosted washed sperm do not last for too long unfortunately. Clinic says it does last 24 hours but based on my research it could be as little as 6 hours in fact...

Hello everyone,

Thank you all for your help, using clearBlue digital ovulation tests I detected my LH surge on Saturday morning and had to go in on the same day at 1:30pm, as they are closed on Sundays.

Late afternoon on Saturday I had some sharp pains on my right side, so I am hoping this was my egg being released and it was all timed ok. Will have to wait and see, now the dreaded two week wait.

Hope everything goes well for you all x
