Progesterone Question Sorry

in Secondary IF
I triggered Sunday night @ 9:30pm, IUI was yesterday. I called the nurse to see when to start progesterone, she said tonight- does that sound right, because her answer did not sound very confident. She actually thought at first I was doing another IUI today, and I said no, I triggered Sunday night, and since you were closed Monday, I could only do one yesterday. I am always afraid to start it too early.

Please advise, thanks.

My History:
Lots of BFN's & failed IUI's w/clomid and/or femara
Finally BFP with femara & t.i.- son born 6/17/2010
Started TTC again around when DS was 3ish
Lots of BFN's with femara & t.i & ovidrel
Tubes clear, S.A came back low motility but high count
About to switch to injectables w/femara, did one last cycle with just femara & an IUI with ovidrel- stupid motility was fantastic in the sample, but count was 700,000 AFTER wash! Had to sign a paper to even still do IUI- BFFP (big fat freaking positive) Go figure!

    When they checked after the IUI had you ovulated all the follies? If so then tonight is probably fine. I usually start like a day and half after O has been confirmed.

    TTC#1 May 2009- July 2010 on our own with no luck

    Started with RE in August 2010, dx with unexplained IF and then finally our 3rd IUI cycle using Follistim and Trigger resulted in our wonderful little man.  Born 12/2/11

    TTC#2 Never really prevented, but were careful early on as Dr. reccomended

    Surprise BFP 12/16/13, started progesterone immediately as first numbers came back low, but betas were good.  Progesterone wasnt enough. Natural MC 12/24/13.

    Back with RE as of January 2014...

    5/27/14- Chemical Pregnancy :(

    April 2015 IVF#1

    5/13/15- BFP, please stick LO!

    Oh and I'm a major Harry Potter Nerd :)

    Hmm my practice always does an ultrasound after the IUI to confirm everything. But if you triggered Sunday night than you should have O'd for sure by last night, i might wait til tomorrow morning to start but I doubt it it will make a big difference either way.

    Mine doesn't check either after. I was told to take mine the morning after IUI but I waited til night since I've never taken the suppositories before and wasn't sure what to expect. I would guess I took them 24 hours after I ovulated as I had strong ovulation pain which timed up with 36 hours after the trigger.

    @sailorgal I had O pain yesterday all day- even before IUI, which is 36 hours after trigger. It always just confuses me- It will affect ovulation, right? So you just want to make sure you start after ovulation? Which in my case is after shot, you ovulate within 36 hours- you never ovulate after that 36 hour mark? Because I know she said that with me having 3 mature follicles, they release at different times typically, so I guess all within that 36 hour mark still?

    I've read it's reliably within the 36-44 hours mark. But that's from Dr. Google.

    Interesting. Because I have had on & off O type pain today, but didn't know if it is from the IUI yesterday. I am out of the 36 hour window at this point.

    In regards to o pain, it's sometimes the pain of the ovaries and follies getting ready to o, and not the actual pain of it actually happening.  One of my girlfriends, for example, rushed to the RE's office because she swore she could feel that she was o'ing and didn't want to miss the IUI timing.  Well, they did and u/s and reassured her that she still hadn't o'ed and that it was just her body gearing up to o in the next day (which matched the timing of trigger).  So, I would trust your drugs and your Dr's on this one.  You can feel o pains around o time, but you may not be pin pointing the actual moment of o.
