1st Trimester

Question about conceiving with IUI

I am actually on the TTC board and I just had my first IUI.  I was curious how many people who are now pregnant conceived with an IUI and how many did it take before you were successful? 

Thanks for the input!

Ba hahahaha!

    I had been TTC for a year & a half with a blighted ovum in November.  We were diagnosed as unexplained infertility.  I had my 1st medicated IUI in June & got a BFP.  I'm still being cautious as I'm only 5 & 1/2 weeks right now, but we did have success with our 1st.  Good luck!

  • Each case is different when it comes to IUI, because each diagnosis has its challenges.  

    We got the BFP this month on our 3rd IUI....but our chances of IUI working was less than 10% due to our particular situation.

    5/4/13-IUI #1=BFN,  6/3/13-IUI #2=BFN, 7/1/2013-IUI #3=BFP!!!

  • I got pregnant on my first IUI (with clomid). I was surprised it worked since I had read it usually doesn't for people with unexplained infertility. My doctor said she was surprised it worked as well because most of the sperm came out of my uterus during the procedure.  I am now 12 weeks along.

    This was our fourth IUI (and would have been last before moving on to something else) - all medicated though we were unexplained. It can be really disappointing so just be prepared for that. It frequently takes more than one. Keep your chin up and hopefully it will happen for you too soon!

    TTC Since July 2011  34 years old Unexplained IF
    3 failed IUI's, 6/2013 - IUI #4 150mg clomid, BFP, 7 weeks heartbeat, M/C at 9 weeks

    IUI#5 (Oct) & 6 (Nov) 150mg clomid -BFN

    Last IUI on 12/7 and that's the end of the road...onto adoption if that is what is meant to be for us. 


  • Thanks ladies.  I hope soon to be on this board with you all!  Congrats on your pregnancies.
    Ba hahahaha!

  • We were/are unexplained.  We got lucky on our second IUI after trying for two years on our own.
