Ugh possibly ovulating early? What should I do?

jencity9jencity9 member
in Trouble TTC
So I just had my mid-cycle scan today and an set to trigger Sunday night and IUI Tuesday morning. I had three follies- 18, 14, and 12 mm. But earlier today I started having slight cramping and now it's a lot stronger. Even though I have PCOS I do ovulate on my own half the time, and now I'm worried I'm ovulating. I'm wondering if I should call or continue as planned. DH and I have company tonight so we will not be doing anything but can BD tomorrow night but then not again after if we're still going to do IUI Tuesday. But then I wonder if the cramping could be related to something else like a follie growth spurt or something, LOL. And I guess I just also don't want to drop another $150 got another ultrasound to confirm if I ovulated or not.

I haven't charted in years because of PCOS and infertility stuff so that isn't something I can look to and same with OPK's.

Has anyone else had a situation like this? Today is only cd11 so maybe I'm just getting ahead of myself! (Hopefully)

Me: 32  DH: 33  Married: March 2004

July 2006: started TTC
2008: HSG (normal), couple rounds of clomid through gyno
2008 - 2010: dragging my feet out of fear and procrastination
October 2010: first consultation with RE, dx PCOS and fibroids (DH slightly low count/motility)
Oct. 2010 - Dec. 2012:  In DENIAL! avoided the issue because I was scared of surgery
January 2013: returned to RE, fibroids grew significantly
February 2013: second HSG, fibroids pushed on tubes which blocked them somewhat
March 2013: MRI to determine what type of surgery may be necessary
July 29, 2013: fibroids (5) removed via robotic laparascopy
August 2013 - Nov 2013 : benched due to recent surgery

IUI #1, Dec. 24, 2013, BFN 
IUI #2, Jan. 25, 2014, BFN
IUI #3, Feb. 25, 2014  BFN
IUI #4 canceled due to lack of response to letrozole
IUI #4.1 April 28, 2014, BFN
May 16, 2014: wtf consult, start prepping for IVF in June and add injects for one last IUI in the meantime
IUI #5 started letrozole and bravelle but canceled after HSG led to new diagnosis
May 21, 2014: third HSG, tubes blocked, one at the beginning, one hydrosalpinx??
June 11, 2014: consult, approved to move on to IVF because the hydro is not completely blocked therefore allowing fluid to move through slowly rather than backwards
IVF #1 August 8, 2014 - 3dt of 2 embryos, BFN
September 17, 2014 - 4th HSG, the right tube is very patent (open!!) dye went straight through this time. Weird!
October 2, 2014 - started metformin treatment
November 14, 2014 - blood work, brought A1C down from 5.8 to 5.5
November 26, 2014 - RE finally back from vaca and reviewed my chart, no more IVFs for rest of calendar year
December 1, 2014 - Right after Thanksgiving, I called a new clinic and got in right away! Plan for IVF
December 17, 2014 - ER! 29 retrieved (!!), 16 mature, all 16 fertilized (ICSI)
IVF #2 December 20, 2014 - 3dt of 3 embryos, BFN

We are done with treatment unsuccessfully. :(

    I had slight cramping and twinges all of the time with letrozole, so I wouldn't be very concerned. My RE says it's very common to feel that on letrozole, it can also be the follies you have growing. They should have done bloodwork today to see if your LH was surging already, I'd assume that if you didn't hear from them to come in earlier for IUI then your bloodwork checked out as not ovulating and you are good to go with the plan they had already set forth at the appointment. Good luck!

    Call your doc if you're worried.  I was concerned about that too, this cycle, and my RE reassured me that early ovulation was unlikely based on my recent tests and the timing of my trigger. She let me know that it could be simply follie growth.

    I would get an OPK and just see if it's positive. If it's not, that should give you some piece of mind too (unless yours are positive a lot). My doc doesn't check labs for an LH surge but if yours does, then that's good because they would know what is going on. I would think with just an 18 as your largest follie you *wouldn't*be ovulating already. They probably want to hold you off a couple of days to try to get that 14 to ovulate as well. I did ovulate early once and all my doc said I could do was pee on an OPK and if it's positive either have sex that night or call to schedule an IUI the following morning. Hopefully it's just your follies growing!

    I would also, just for my own sanity, just in case have sex now if you can. That way even if by chance you are ovulating, you get some sperm in there!



    ********Siggy/Ticker Warning***********



    Me (35) no known issues DH (37) MFI. TTC 21 months (24 cycles)
    Dx MFI with low to normal count, low motility, morphology 3%
    HSG normal, ultrasound and labs on me all normal. 

    1 cycle of Clomid 50mg and TI, unmonitored by OBGYN= BFN
    1 cycle of Clomid 50mg and IUI, unmonitored by OBGYN= BFN
    Started seeing an RE!!
    2 more cycles of clomid 50mg (great response), with IUI and Pregnyl trigger (4.8-8 mil good ones after wash) = all BFN
    1 cycle of clomid 50mg (3-7) followed by Follistim 75iu (7-11) + IUI = BFN
    December 2013 DH saw urologist and is taking Anastrozole, CoQ10, and L-Carnitine
    IUI #5 natural cycle (needed a med break) = BFN
    IUI #6 Follistim 75iu (CD3-10) + Pregnyl (CD11) + IUI (final count after wash 300K) = BFN
    IUI #7 Follistim 75iu (CD3-9) + Pregnyl (CD11) + IUI on 2/20 (post wash count 12.5 million)= BFN
    IUI cancelled (DH OOT) Clomid 50mg (CD3-7) 1 follicle +(not well timed) TI = BFN
    IUI #8 and last one!! Clomid 100mg (CD3-7) +OPK before US + IUI 4/17 (post wash 8.5 mil)= BFN

    @calindi that's really interesting!! I was wondering what the effect would be of adding a trigger to ovulation.

    I ended up not calling.. I don't know. I had some cramping this morning too but yeah I figured with -8 being the biggest that it wasn't quite time anyway. I'm just going to trut the process!

    Me: 32  DH: 33  Married: March 2004

    July 2006: started TTC
    2008: HSG (normal), couple rounds of clomid through gyno
    2008 - 2010: dragging my feet out of fear and procrastination
    October 2010: first consultation with RE, dx PCOS and fibroids (DH slightly low count/motility)
    Oct. 2010 - Dec. 2012:  In DENIAL! avoided the issue because I was scared of surgery
    January 2013: returned to RE, fibroids grew significantly
    February 2013: second HSG, fibroids pushed on tubes which blocked them somewhat
    March 2013: MRI to determine what type of surgery may be necessary
    July 29, 2013: fibroids (5) removed via robotic laparascopy
    August 2013 - Nov 2013 : benched due to recent surgery

    IUI #1, Dec. 24, 2013, BFN 
    IUI #2, Jan. 25, 2014, BFN
    IUI #3, Feb. 25, 2014  BFN
    IUI #4 canceled due to lack of response to letrozole
    IUI #4.1 April 28, 2014, BFN
    May 16, 2014: wtf consult, start prepping for IVF in June and add injects for one last IUI in the meantime
    IUI #5 started letrozole and bravelle but canceled after HSG led to new diagnosis
    May 21, 2014: third HSG, tubes blocked, one at the beginning, one hydrosalpinx??
    June 11, 2014: consult, approved to move on to IVF because the hydro is not completely blocked therefore allowing fluid to move through slowly rather than backwards
    IVF #1 August 8, 2014 - 3dt of 2 embryos, BFN
    September 17, 2014 - 4th HSG, the right tube is very patent (open!!) dye went straight through this time. Weird!
    October 2, 2014 - started metformin treatment
    November 14, 2014 - blood work, brought A1C down from 5.8 to 5.5
    November 26, 2014 - RE finally back from vaca and reviewed my chart, no more IVFs for rest of calendar year
    December 1, 2014 - Right after Thanksgiving, I called a new clinic and got in right away! Plan for IVF
    December 17, 2014 - ER! 29 retrieved (!!), 16 mature, all 16 fertilized (ICSI)
    IVF #2 December 20, 2014 - 3dt of 3 embryos, BFN

    We are done with treatment unsuccessfully. :(

    Well I could go get one in the morning but at this point I think I'll just follow through with the trigger. We did BD tonight just in case!
