Infertility

SIS, best CD to have it done??

Good Morning Ladies,

Does anyone have any suggestions as to the best CD to have the Saline Sonogram done?? My doctor wants it done CD5-12 so im wondering if I should go for 5 or wait a little or even if it makes a difference!!

Any suggestions??

    I'm having mine done this Friday on CD 13 per their request. 
  • @laur1212 My doctor just scheduled me for Friday as well!! For me its CD 6. 

    I wonder if the length of cycle makes a difference??

  • @ADRIANAC1982 I know I'm also getting a bunch of other testing done so I'm thinking they wanted to bang it all out in one visit! Which I prefer but now I'm wondering if it matters when lol 
  • @laur1212 I had one set of blood work the 11th, I have to be there tomorrow at 7:45 a.m., for an ultrasound and MORE bloodwork, then back Friday 7:45 a.m., for the SIS. 

    So I def understand, I wish I could have done it all in one swoop! My best friend is also set to be induced tomorrow evening so Ill be with her at the hospital until she delivers!! So its going to be a BUSY week!

  • I haven't had this done, but I remember reading something saying that the best time to have this just is just after your period has finished. Good luck!

    @ADRIANAC1982 so I thought I was getting a saline ultrasound today but I was wrong. He said if AF comes after this first IUI then I get one. Today's ultrasound I had 5 follies! Just waiting to ovulate! So I go back on Sunday for another one! 
  • @laur1212 I had my SIS as scheduled on Friday...Ugh, the pain!!! BUT on a happy note, the blockage that they saw on/in my left tube is now gone! So thats progress, my friends Dr told her sometimes the saline clears out the tube if there is a block so maybe thats what did the trick!! 

    Next up, consult on the 6th to FINALLY proceed!
