Can anyone shed some light on IUI odds?

[sj22]

Caseybaby this time I had 2 mature follies, one of 26mm and one of 24mm.

Missymoomoo: I am based in Bristol and go to the Spire which is a BUBA approved hospital the constultant is amazing. If you go on their website they have lots of information on the procedures. https://fertilitybristol.com/infoleaflets.aspx maybe this will help? xx

Caseybaby this time I had 2 mature follies, one of 26mm and one of 24mm.

Thank you thank you!

The DR called me back. I have three follicles. 14mm and 10mm on the left, and 10mm on the right.

My clinic is wanting them to be 18mm before I take the trigger shot.

I wonder why there is such a difference in measurements?

I had a scan today and had 1 at 18, and 1 at 14, and 7 at 12 and 22 at 10 or less. They gave me the trigger to do today - but then told me to wait until tomorrow - so now I have to go for an ultrasound tomorrow morning...........

 

[sj22]

Don't know why there is a difference in measurements, I think there are some follies more dominant that others. As well as those two I had 15 that were around 10mm or less. My Dr wouldn't go ahead if more than 3 were mature. x

 

[Blue12]

SJ22 - did you trigger at size 24/26 or had the iui at size 24/26? Sorry for all the questions.

 

[sj22]

I think they were about 26/24 when triggered. They were quite big! x

 

[CaseyBaby718]

My DOC said that one is fine. They don't won't go ahead if there are more then 3 though. So between 1 and 3 is their goal.

I wonder why different DRs have different criteria.

I have my trigger set for tomorrow between 6pm and Midnight. The IUI is scheduled for 7:45 to 9:45 am Tuesday morning, for the drop off of Specimen and the actual IUI. I'm so excited. This is all coming to pass now.

Missymoomoo, this is also where my Dr works (he works for the NHS in one of Bristol's hospitals as well as privately) and there is lots of info here too. x

Just to let you all know, my final IUI didn't work - got my period on Thursday - so its on to IVF for us in June/July.

Thanks for all your support and good luck to all of you still waiting to test and going through your IUI in the next couple of weeks. Hope there are lots of BFPS.

So sorry Babychristie

 

[sj22]

Am sorry Babychristie, but IVF has great odds. Am thinking of you x

 

[Wallie]

Sorry Babychristie that IUI didn't work. At least you've given it a go but now have IVF to fall back on. I know it's no consulation but at least there's still something else to try. How many maximum goes do you have with IVF?

 

[CaseyBaby718]

I'm thinking of you Babychristie!

 

[CaseyBaby718]

Did Trigger last night, freaked out a little, but i'm scared (but won't admit it) if needles, and especially so when a NON medical person is giving it to me (ie, the DH).

Also, did a few witchy fertility things, and BD! It was a very busy day.

Today is boring, another limbo day sorta. Tomorrow is rise and shine early in the morning, collect the IUI specimen (ie DH) and ride to the DRs in morning traffic. YEY!

 

[mrssunshine78]

so sorry babychristie - really hope the ivf works for you

i'm feeling totally in limbo at the moment, couldn't have iui this month cos we were on holiday, so now i'm gonna hve to wait about 4 wks before we can even try it.

 

[BabyChristie]

Thanks everyone.

Wallie - We have one go free on the NHS and then they recommend 2 more self-funded goes before thinking about whether to go on any further. Pretty scared that we might be getting to the end of the road, but that also means we should be nearer our baby dream too hopefully.

CaseyBaby - glad the trigger went ok. Wishing you loads of luck. xx

 

[sj22]

Caseybaby - hope it all goes well tomorrow and then on to the 2ww

I had IUI follow up appointment today and there was one heartbeat! Am extremely happy but very anxious. Nurse said it was measuring 5 weeks so a little small, am going again on June 1st.

Hi Girls, if my current cycle isn't successful, I'll be joining you next month on IUI. I am currently on my second cycle using clomid, and the doctor suggested I combine it with IUI. I would have loved to have done it this cycle, but was out of town. Have any of you done clomid with IUI?

Just wanted to introduce myself...I've been watching this thread for a while in anticipation of it.

Casey, best of luck that this works for you!
