got my digital positive on 8/1 !!
I did trigger on 7/18
IUI-7/20
I tested the trigger shot and it was out of my system by 7PDIUI/9DPT
It started reappearing again in my easy@home test on 7/31

I don’t believe it to be trigger shot !! I’m supposed to test on 8/3 per my clinic…

Right is yesterday’s. Left is today’s 🙏🏻 cautiously holding my breath. 12 days past IUI, 14 days past trigger. It couldn’t possibly be urine concentration and trigger? The TWW is wild.

Hello All,

I am switching from Clomid to Letrozole, my lining got too thin, and I developed cysts. Clomid also didnt help me produce anything more than just 1 follie. Any success stories? This is our last cycle. We are still up in the air about IVF in the future (29, ttc 2 years, male factor infertility)

Went through a second IUI cycle , triggered March 20th, IUI on Saturday March 21st and Sunday March 22nd. I was out on progesterone day after last IUI . I’ve been holding off testing until today to avoid emotional breakdown. I’ve been feeling extremely bloated and somewhat of stinging on my boobs but I swore it was the progesterone. Today I tested with an HCG strip and I got a second line. Today would be 12DPIUI so I want to ask anyone here if they’ve tested this early before and if it ended up being accurate or could this be remainder of the trigger shot. I am scheduled for bloodwork on Monday since my clinic refuses to test earlier but my heart just needs some reassurance that this could be accurate 🥹 any advice or experiences are welcome

I have 3-4 days before my period and my belly is pulling the second day in row. I took my pregnancy test (it’s been 12 days after trigger shot) and this is what I got. Is there any chance I really can be pregnant

Likelihood this is a real positive?? Losing my mind! Can’t compare to yesterday’s because I used a blue dye and switched to pink today. Tell me your story!

Sometimes infertile women take medicines (by oral or as an injection) that cause their ovaries to get more fertile. During this process it causes many eggs to get fertile at once. Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a medical procedure that places sperm after the cervix and in a woman’s uterus at the time of ovulation, making the passage to the fallopian tubes much shorter. The idea behind this is to increase the chances of pregnancy by putting more sperm in contact with more eggs.

I am at a complete loss and losing my mind at the same time. Husband (34) and myself (F34) started trying to have a baby a few years ago after we got married and were successful pretty much right away. We sadly miscarried at 7weeks and thought we’d be able to try again and succeed pretty soon after….. WRONG. We are going into year 3 of “unexplained infertility” (I despise this lazy diagnosis) and by all accounts, nothing is “wrong” and people/drs are seemingly stumped as to why we haven’t conceived since.

All the supplements? Tried them. Timing is perfect. I use ovulation strips. Nearly every app you can think of. We eat right. We’re active. No health issues for either one of us. I had a slight vitamin D deficiency, ok solved that with the recommendation of my Dr. Now what? WHY is this such a common thing I hear/read about?

How can couples conceive pretty much right away and after a miscarriage they struggle to conceive again? It leaves me thinking it must be something about my body not accepting his swimmers because it recognizes them as some sort of threat?

If anyone has any insight or answers of their own I’d love to hear. I’m so drained and depressed at this point I just need to hear something, maybe something optimistic lol.

Side note - we’ve done 2 failed IUIs and a few other medicated cycles with letrizole and ovidrel as well ** we’re about to head into our 3rd IUI

Stay out of lakes and hot tubs. But is it ok to drink alcohol before a BFP?

Can you also see the VVFL on the last strip?

10 DPT, 8 DPIUI

11DPT, 9 DPIUI

12DPT, 10 DPIUI

BEEN testing out the trigger i got negative on the 9th day

My husband and I had IUI on 3/17. It was our first IUI attempt. I had a positive test on Saturday, 3/28 (11 DPIUI) and went for my hCg blood test on 3/31. Unfortunately, I started my period about an hour after the blood test. Failed IUI stories have taken over my algorithm. I’m looking for success stories to give us some hope. How many IUI’s did it take for a successful pregnancy?

History: we are both 29 years old. We have experienced an ectopic pregnancy and chemical pregnancy (prior to surgery). Sperm analysis was normal, both labs were normal. I had a partial salpingectomy in November as it was causing a harmful environment and preventing implantation. This IUI was our first pregnancy since that surgery and it unfortunately ended up being chemical.

Hi everyone,

I’m 35 and was recently diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve, and I’m still trying to process it.

We only recently started trying to conceive, so this wasn’t something I had tested earlier. I honestly didn’t have any reason to suspect an issue before this.

My numbers are:

• AMH: 0.1

• FSH (CD2): 26

• AFC: 4–5

• Regular cycles

• Tubes open, uterus normal

My RE said I have a very poor prognosis with my own eggs and that donor eggs would give me the highest chance of live birth. He didn’t say zero chance — just very low.

I think what’s hitting me is that this isn’t something reversible. I knew DOR could mean fewer eggs, but I wasn’t emotionally prepared to hear that I may not realistically have a live birth with my own eggs.

I keep thinking, “Does this mean I can’t have my own biological child?” Even though technically there’s still a chance, it sounds like it’s very small.

Has anyone here had similar numbers and tried:

• IUI?

• Mini IVF?

• Conventional IVF?

• Or did you move straight to donor eggs?

If you were in this situation, how did you decide when to stop trying with your own eggs?

I’m torn between:

• Wanting to try at least once so I don’t regret it

• And not wanting to lose time if the odds are extremely low

I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s been in the severe DOR category and how you navigated it.

Thank you ❤️

10 dpo 12 dpt definitely over testing.

Hey 👋🏼 I had did my trigger on 7/18 IUI- 7/20 I tested out my trigger shot and it looks like it was already out by 7DPIUI/9DPT But started to get a line again as of 7/31 (11dpiui/13DPT) and today looks much darker ! Thoughts??!

Today I am 12 DPIUI and 13 DP trigger shot. I did 1 cc of pregnyl for my trigger shot and then .5 cc
Of pregnyl 3 and 6 DPIUI.

So my last trigger shot was one week ago!! Has anyone used this protocol with the booster shots? If so, when was it out of your system?

Could use a little love and emotional support from people that are also going through it. This journey feels very lonely and my heart is very heavy tonight. IUI was two weeks ago tomorrow. I go in for my beta test in the morning but have been cramping and spotting all day. I know technically I’m not out yet, but I’m not feeling optimistic and I’m absolutely crushed, devastated, heartbroken, all the things. I typically have cramping and spotting before a period so I’m just feeling like this is just that. 😪

So I been testing since 10dpo to see if the trigger was still there. There is a vvvvfl everyday getting lighter but the pm today looks less faint and more visible to me. Does anyone else agree? Could this still just be trigger?? Anyone still have trigger this late?

i feel like i see something vvvvf but im also not sure my eyes are playing with me. dpo 11

Cycle day 13 I had follicles less than 10in size. Today CD16 she isn’t seeing any in the ultrasound. I range between ovulating CD12-17. So I guess I am just stumped on what might be going on. I took letrozole cd3-7. Maybe I ovulated early?
