hi i'm 35 , single and FINALLY about to start my ttc journey after finally choosing a donor from manhattan cryobank! its taken months to finally find a willing to be known AA donor but i found him, so i'll be talking to my dr after the holidays. my thoughts is that i want to try iui because my chances for conception are higher but i will wait and see what the dr suggests. any tips before my appointment or in general as i start this journey?

Hi Lilo, welcome!

I don't have any experience with IUI, but I didn't want to read and run.

For ttc in general though, I can say I've just been watching caffeine intake (slowly cut out my IV mainline of dark roast coffee over several months; I stick with a cup or 2 of green tea daily now. Funny thing...I'm sleeping better. Lol.), cut out alcohol, and have started taking vitamins/supplements (I'd recommend checking out the CoQ10 threads especially; I started on that this cycle.). I also signed up with Fertility Friend....it has been SUCH a huge help getting a personal handle on my cycles.

When are you looking at going in? Good luck and to you!
