TTC after 35

Clomid cycle begins...

Hello! So to day is day 1 of my cycle. My 1st appointment to start the Clomid procedure is Friday. We decided to go the "agressive" route and do the IUI instead of timed intercourse. Has anyone had the IUI done? Does it hurt? Is it similar to the Saline Sono or HSG? I hope not! :( I'm excited and nervous.......

  • I have not had an IUI, but wanted to wish you good luck!

  • Hi there,

    I have had 3 IUIs - the first two I barely felt anything but the last one hurt a tiny bit - similar to my HSG - so I little pressure and cramping.  It's no big deal at all - good luck! 

    Me: 37 DH: 37 TTC since Jan 2012. RE consult and initial testing done in Aug 2012: SA fine, AMH 1.1 & HSG clear - on way to IUI but got BFP on 9/10/2012. m/c 10/3/2012 at 6w5d. BFP next cycle which was a c/p. IUI #1: Clomid 100mg 12/6= BFN. IUI#2 (unmedicated) Jan 2013 = BFN. Hysteroscopy 1/25/13. IUI#3 Clomid 100mg 2/23 = BFN IUI# 4: BFN.
