Symptoms after IUI

June 13, 2008

Hi..My LMP was May 29th and i underwent IUI on June 10th. This time, I feel everything went right and really really hope that I have already conceived. The doc started me on Duphaston from the day of IUI for 8 days. I have been feeling a lot of breast tenderness right on 2nd DPO and now have even had a pimple on the face which I usually get when I am going to get my period. I want it to work for us desperately this time, but am scared if this is just another failed attempt for us. Can you guide me if these symptoms indeed can mean that it has not worked for me?..I am suffering from hypothyroidism (controlled on Thyronorm 100 mcg) and PCOS ( have undergone ovarian drilling in November last year).

Thanks.

Hello,

Unfortunetly, the symptoms are so different with everyone and can mean one is OR isn't preggo. Symptoms can even be different from month to month. Every time I felt something different I thought OH wow I could be preggo then I would feel something different and think OH no maybe I'm not. So it's all a waiting game :O( You just have to wait and see. I can't tell you to not pay attention to your symptoms b/c that's not really possible but just know that I don't think any one person can tell you you are or aren't based on them. Lots of luck, I do hope this is your month****** BABY DUST****

The symptoms are because of Duphaston and progesterone that is produced by ur body after ovulation. Its just 3 days after IUI which is way too early for a pregnancy, which occurs around 6-7 days after IUI. so, hang in there and hope it works for u this time..

Hi Jenstar and HopeN,

Thanks so much for your honest advice. Yes, waiting and keeping a positive attitude are the only things that I can do at the moment. Really appreciate your response. Will surely keep you posted as to what happens in the next week or two.
