IUI and misplaced ovary?

good morning all: I just got back from my u/s cd10. RE still is unable to locate one of my ovaries and the visible one is folded back so he can't be sure if it is the left or right. I'm all screwed up!!! Has anyone here been told their ovary is badly positioned? How is this going to effect the IUI ? They will be calling me to let me know about my estrogen levels.....I guess that will be the tell tale of whether the IUI cycle will continue. I'm feeling a little hopeless right now with my uncooperative body.

Re: IUI and misplaced ovary?

  • I had a late in the cycle ultrasound where the nurse couldn't find my left ovary, which is always difficult to pin point because it's fairly high up. I came back the next day and the RE found it no problem. They tend to get easier to see as you stim more, so perhaps he could find it tomorrow?

    I wouldn't want to trigger unless he could see both and verify the number of mature follies you have. Wouldn't want to risk HOM. Good luck!
