I just received BFN a few days ago from IUI #1 ...

I just received BFN a few days ago from IUI #1 with Clomid 100 and Hcg shot. I am so torn up, I could have sworn I felt twinges and tugging on my side for 1 week after, and was so dizzy a few days...I know its only the first one, but honestly, when so many others around me get pregnant at the drop of a hat, its so frustrating...my DH and I REALLY REALLY want to start a family... been trying since January, but I have PCOS so I dont ovulate regularly..good thing is I am not overweight and dont have insulin resistance..but the doc says my ovaries have the classic "string of pearls" on the outsides...does anyone know if the rate of success increases with subsequent IUIs?

Unfortunately the side affects you're experiencing could simply be related to Clomid. Its a wicked drug, I used it for years during my IF treatments...I felt HORRIBLE and would swear I was PG because I had all the signs....in the end, it was just the side affects from Clomid.


The key when having IF treatments, especially IUI's, is to insure you have a mature, viable egg that is about to release. If you take clomid, or femara (which is what I recommend) the doctor needs to montior you closely to insure the medication is doing what it needs to be.....producing a mature egg. Its best to have at least 2 mature follciles before you continue to an IUI. Also, make sure your doctor gives you an HCG shot prior to the IUI. This will help mature the eggs fully and will help them release appropriately.

Many docs are now using PreSeed during their IUI's. Water, and other lubricants can actually hinder the efficacy of the IUI.

I too have PCOS and eventually got pregnant with our second child after 3 IUI's. It can happen, there's just a lot that goes into preparing for a successful cycle. Prayers to you!
