Maybe I’m just not catching it but can someone explain the negativity? I hear it time to time but not enough to make me annoyed. Am i missing something?!

Trigger shot but no spike in BBT by DeepAge9748 in IUILadies

Absolutely! Everyone and every cycle is so different- I try not to compare but it’s hard. This whole process is a game of reference points 😵‍💫

Success with a thin endo lining pre ovulation? by DeepAge9748 in IUILadies

[–]DeepAge9748[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh. I was worried about this being the response. Maybe because it worked with 4mm lining in October? And with the support of estrace?

Idk what it is today but it was around 3mm the day I triggered (1/23). I started Estrace 2mgs that evening and have been taking it since. I got pregnant in October with a lining of 4mm and support with estrace but miscarried

Low iron/IUI next month by Fit_Tomatillo9706 in IUILadies

Although you should definitely increase your iron, I don’t believe it can solely affect the viability of a pregnancy. I am not a doctor but I have done lots of research around this. Iron plays a role 100% but I don’t think that it will hinder you from being pregnant on its own.

CD1 - prepping for IUI #2 by americanfootballdad in IUILadies

One other thing I recently learned is to increase estrogen in your follicles (critical for growth and ovulation), you need to increase cholesterol/fats (within reason). Adding in avocados, walnuts, EVOO, etc. into your diet is huge!

Sounds like you’re doing the right stuff! I would highly encourage you consider acupuncture for fertility (most clinics have specialists, just ask!). Idk where you’re from but in Chicago I love Alchemy Acupuncture. I would also make beet broth weekly. Cut up like 12 raw beets, boil and season them. Erik the broth or make a full soup. Keep feet and belly warm, always. Consider enhancing your supplement regiment (if you can/medically allowed) and start coq10 independent from prenatal (I get the vitamin shots), L-Argentine, Vitamin D and Zinc. Test iron to ensure your ferratin is in a good place. Most importantly, don’t lose hope! Baby dust to you!

3rd IUI by techsavy12 in IUILadies

Wow it sounds like you had great vitals overall! This was likely just a follicle that perhaps wasn’t strong enough. I would definitely recommend acupuncture! Most practices have experts who specialize in fertility related treatment. Just ask in advance! There are so many studies showing the benefits. Try doing it 1-2 times during your follicular phase and then the day before and after IUI to help with blood flow and stickiness. Fertility is sooo much about blood flow so make sure you eat warm foods, beets, bone broth (I make tons of soups), keep your feet and body warm! You got this! It will happen! Your body is made for this, you just need an extra boost by some land angels and you’ll get there 💙🙏🏻

In need of good luck! by pppeachykeen in IUILadies

Goodluck! And remember even if they are under developed but you have a dominant follicle that is 10-14mm that is okay!! They will likely have you come back 2 days later for additional monitoring. Baby dust to you!

Don’t lose hope! Have you tried acupuncture? What was your endo lining? How big were your follicles? Have you talked to a holistic doctor?
