IUI & OPK

Mrs.KMid

Hi ladies, random questions, those of you who have done/will do an IUI cycle.  A) Did you use OPK's Where did you get yours from? 

I usually get mine from early-pregnancy-tests.com but I wasjust curious what everyone else was using.

Yes, I used OPKs in addition to my trigger.  I just used the internet cheapies I buy off of ebay.

I use the ones from ept.com.  I still use them just to satisfy my urge to pee on sticks, but I don't use them for my RE, I'm using a trigger shot.

Yes I use OPK's to determine the day I go in for my IUI.  + OPK = IUI following day.  I use internet cheapie OPK's.

Thank you ladies for your responses, I was on the fence on to use them or ditch them.  Its such a pain to use them while at work....

I used them during my IUI cycle - I've used internet cheapies and CBE digitals.

My RE said to get the digital ones with the smiley face. They are spendy but he said they are fool proof. He told me to start cd10- a positive using 2nd morning urine and before 10am

My RE has me start using OPKs on CD10.  I hate second guessing so I pay extra for the CBE digitals.

I too was told by my RE to not use OPK at all. All meds and the trigger throw it off anyway.

I thought I was to use them also but when I did, I got all 4-5days leading up to my 2 darkest days, ALL DARK. I asked the day of my IUI if my nurse wanted to see them and she said, they won't do any good because CD11 and on should all be dark....and they were.
