IUI March anyone?

I had to pay out of pocket too .... not sure there is much of an increase in success rate with two days but that was the standard for the clinic I'm with.

I was really crampy last night - almost unbearable actually! I asked the Dr. today if this was normal and she said yes it is normal and a good sign of ovulation so hang in there the cramping goes away! I am much better today after the second IUI.

lots of IUI's this week!! :dust: and :hugs: to everyone!

I only did it one day.... I wonder what the sucess rate difference if between 1day and 2days?

I am paying out of pocket b/c nothing covered by insurance so i figured start with one day!!

I'm getting more crampy as the night goes on....has anyone found this? not bad but definity more noticeable.
 
Two days is also standard for my clinic, although I may just do one next month. The clinic visits and iui's are covered by insurance, but I pay for the donor sperm out of pocket, and its $500 a pop! :wacko:
 
Good morning Ladies,

So i broke down and tested with a FRER this morning and it was BFN. I am still not having any AF symptoms, no spotting and my temp is still up. Is it possible that it is just too early for me to test??

Good luck to everyone and lots of :dust: :hugs:
 
When my sister was trying the HPTs were not showing (+) till after AF was missed and by several days so until she shows up stay positive and hopeful. I know easier said than done .....
 
Clinic visits are part of my "cycle monitoring" fee and it was 280 for the year, then its $200 per sperm wash so essentially the IUI costs $400 as it is done twice with washed sperm. Small price when compared to IVF but still not fun to have to pay for! I think donor sperm where I am in is in the $500 range too ....

Jappy sorry about the BFN - my temp dropped and spotting and BFN so all over for me now - start #3 as soon as AF here properly.

Good luck to everyone!
 
Hi ladies. I had my first iui today, and everything looks good. The doctor said the sperm is really good, and there were 9 million. I had 4 follies, sized 24, 21, 18, 17. Dr said it looked like ill ovulate this afternoon. The Dr even had my OH hold the syringe and put it in! I have another iui tomorrow and we test on April fools. Fx'd!!!!
 
Tansey - sorry to hear about the cramping and spotting. Stay positive, and look forward to next month.

Jappy sorry about the BFN - my temp dropped and spotting and BFN so all over for me now - start #3 as soon as AF here properly.

Good luck to everyone!
 
Guttingly it looks like my cycle will be cancelled due to 4 follies. Waiting for phone call with descision:cry::cry:

I haven't been on here for a couple of days so I am just catching up on where everyone is... Never heard of 2 IUI's in a row - I don't think this is something normal at the clinic i go to - very cool!

-31 & Trying - This is great news! Let the magic start :happydance:
-Touch the Sky - YEA! Sounds like you have a great doctor.
-Jappy - If you havent gotten the AF yet there is still a good chance!! :flower:
-Tansey - sorry to hear this!
-Swep - YEA!

Just had my first IUI today. Everything went well and was happy that it didn't hurt! (nothing like the HSG) :happydance:

I had 2 mature eggs at 20mm & 18mm. We are still trying to find out my husbands semen analysis, but it looks like he had low volume about 40 million swimmers:spermy:. All it takes is 1 swimmer and egg, right! :thumbup:I have been cramping since the IUI and it was about 3 hours ago. Nothing too bad, but everyonce in a while there is a sharper pain...

My husband is 50% Irish so maybe we will have the luck of the Irish :happydance:

Good luck everyone:dust:

Oh no! Hopefully they don't cancel it.

I didn't realize that they canceled if you had too many follicles. I was worried with only the one that there were not enough.

You would think that it would be up to the patient.. sorry

From what i understand 40 million is excellent number not low volume......

GOOD LUCK

My husband apparently had low volume too but first IUI was 55 million and second IUI was 42 million. He told me yesterday "I focus on quality, not quantity!" It did make me laugh :)

How was the motility for everyone else?
