Did you ovulate before or after IUI?

MrsCompass · Feb 3rd, 2012, 05:24 AM

I had my first IUI yesterday at 9am and we knew I didnt ovulate yet at the time. Doctor did say that I could ovulate later on in the day or even the next morning (today). I just took my temp and it's still low. I dont think ovulated yet, 20 hours post IUI.

I wonder if you know when you ovulated and if it was after how long after the IUI?

Thanks!

Fertility Friend still hasnt confirmed OV but they do say the trigger affects your temps. Did you have the trigger....? My temps are higher though so taking it as though I did but not dure whether it was the day of IUI or the day after?

Hi Wobberly, I did trigger on Tuesday (36 hours before IUI) and they gave me another trigger in the morning, an hour before IUI for the smaller follies.

(I had 2 mature follies at 21 and 19 for the IUI and 3 other follies at 16 and 15 ... The second trigger was for the 3.)

I didn't know the trigger could affect the temp. Thank you!!!

I think the general rule is 36-48 hours after the trigger. For my first set of IUI's I'm pretty sure I O'd at around 40 hours. I had a 24 and a 48 hour IUI for that one. For this second IUI I just had, I triggered at night so I could do a 36 hour IUI and I O'd somewhere in between 37 and 42 hours (I had O pains during that 7 hour window). I've had other triggers but since I didn't have IUI's with them I was t paying as close attention.

Thanks PRose! What do ovulation pains feel like?

Yesterday, I had my IUI at 9am, couple of hours later, exactly 11:15am ... I felt very sore on my right ovary (where I have 2 mature follicles and 3 smaller ones). It was painful to sit down or to stand back up. Anytime my abdomen gets stretched it was sore.

Was that from IUI or was that ovulation pain. Didn't feel that pain on the left side. It was all on the right side.

Goodluck this cycle, PRose! What DPIUI are you now? When are you due to test?

Fertility Friend today confirmed I O'd on my IUI day. I triggered at 11:30am on Sunday and had my IUI Monday at 12:30pm. Fingers X'd I caught that eggie :-)

I had a similar experience with my last IUI. I had my trigger shot 36 hours before the IUI. Right before the IUI, he checked the ultrasound & I hadn't ovulated yet. He said it doesn't matter because the sperm can wait for the egg or vice versa, He said the sperm will live for at least 2 days, probably longer so not to worry. It was about 8 hours later I had these horrible cramps which he told me I would feel when ovulation started. I was worried like you too but he assured me the timing doesn't have to be exact. Good luck! Hope this is our month!

It sounds like those were O pains. I usually don't get them on natural cycles or even on the clomid cycles but I definitely had them this time. I could tell it was different then the IUI discomfort. From the IUI, I get an all over, mild cramping, that's mostly in the uterus. But this was all on the right side were my ovary was, were I had 2 mature follicles and some smaller ones. It was like a pinchy, crampy feeling that's hard to describe. I also had problems standing up straight after being seated for a while. I would have to slowly stretch back out and it would pinch more at that moment. I'm 1 dpIUI/O. My beta test is Feb 16 but I know I'll test before then. I get a second hcg shot on Monday so I think I might just test it out again, so about 4dpiui until the end. I dunno. Fx for you you too!
