Our Fertility Journey - A Full IUI Cycle Documented

[@susanhorvat6194]

Thank you for sharing and explaining your IUI journey in such a thorough, honest and vulnerable way, Lynn. I’m about to start my IUI journey and your video was so helpful for both my husband and I. I wish you all the best ❤

[@baguirre03]

I just cried watching your video😭 Thank you for sharing your story. We will be starting our IUI journey soon so this helps me. Do not lose hope, it will happen for you. God is good🙏🏼💕

[@voutoo7899]

Don’t cry, it is not your fault. Some people have it easier, some people have it challenging. It is a learning journey. Don’t beat yourself up. Hang in there.

[@RoxyGuzman88]

This broke my heart! I suffered an ectopic pregnancy back in Nov 😔. 2022 shall be our year! Keep holding on to faith! ❤️

[@MondayChats]

I'm so sorry for your loss, Roxy. I am still working on a video for it, but after IUI, we did IVF, which was also a failed cycle. But then the very next month I got pregnant naturally. Unfortunately that ended in a miscarriage at 10 weeks. For 2022, we're working on a new plan for growing our family. Best of luck to you! Don't give up!

[@annabennett2233]

I love how specific and thorough this is. Hoping I can start IUI this fall, thank you for helping me learn.

You are so incredibly honest and strong. Sending you so much love and positivity. ❤️🙏

Hi Lynn, thank you so much for sharing this story'. Never lost hope and I wish you Will get the best for your family. I Will got iui in this Sunday, hopefully everything going well. 🙏

Lynn, You do an INCREDIBLE job documenting and captioning your journeys. Thank you so much for being vulnerable with the world. You are an incredible person inside and out. Love you so much! Katie K.

[@angelinaroman190]

Thank you for sharing your story! I know exactly how you feel. I had surgery in March for endometriosis, then June 14th was my first medicated IUI. Before the IUI, I had to do follistim injections for 9 days, ganirelix injections for 4 days, then a trigger shot on my bum. After the IUI I had to do progesterone for 2 weeks. Sadly, the IUI didn't work. I'm currently do the injections again this week for IUI#2. Crossing fingers for us to have our baby! Baby dust to you!

[@MondayChats]

Hi Angelina. Thanks for sharing your story here. It really helps others understand how different the experience can be for everyone. Sorry to hear your first round didn't work. Best of luck to you on your journey.

[@LovelyMarvelous]

@@revathisibbandi2059 Hi! It was! (so far at least). I actually didn't end up getting the IUI until September because I needed to have some testing done first, but I did end up getting pregnant! (I'm still VERY early, only 16dpo - so I'm praying it sticks!)

This was beyond helpful. Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable. I'm sorry the outcome wasn't what you wanted. But I know you'll get there. I'm starting my journey next week - I appreciate the insight. Any additional information around chlomed? I'm really worried about side effects. Did they subside as soon as you stopped taking it? Also I have to do shots too.. any insight on those symptoms? Thanks!!

[@MondayChats]

Hi Gesy! Clomid was a bit rough. I felt very out of it when I was on Clomid. But once I stopped taking it, the symptoms went away. As for shots, it depends what your doctor is trying to help your body do. Each prescription may come with their own side effects, some of which are good ones! I've talked to so many women about how they do their shots and what kind of reactions they get. For some people, they bruise easily, others don't. Some give themselves shots, others have someone help. Personally, I used to have a huge phobia of needles and I would pass out. But after going through fertility treatments, I can now do shots like a champ! Best of luck to you!

Hi Lynn, thanks for sharing your journey, and don’t be disappointed sending lots of good wishes to you. I know how disheartening it can be. I am on a similar journey did my first IUI last month and was absolutely broken when I got the negative results. Just did my second round 2 days ago and now waiting. Although I am fascinated with the process your clinic has with so many scans and test checking everything in detail. Just out of curiosity which country are you based in? I am in Australia and I had only 1 blood & Ultrasound scan at day 10 and straight transfer at day 12. Good luck to you for your IVF and hope you get your bundle of joy soon. :)

[@MondayChats]

Hi Richa. I am in the United States. My first IUI cycle had more ultrasounds than the second. I think it all depends how the body responds to the treatment. Everyone's experience is different and even once cycle to the next for the same person can be so different. Best of luck to you and thanks for commenting.
