infertility and IUIs Posted: 07-28-03 18:27pm
My husband and I have been trying to have
a baby for the last 2 1/2 years. I am
currently taking Clomid as well as
Metformin. Clomid alone did not work.
Last month (June '03) we had our 1st IUI
(well I did) and it did not work. Just
last week we had our 2nd IUI (July '03)
and there was one more follicle than last
time. I had two follicles on my right
side and it hurt to walk during my
ovulation surge. Last month it was also
painful on both sides but not as much as
this time. Was the pain due to ovulation
and has anyone else experienced this type
of pain. I would get sharp pains (cramps)
and every step I took it was painful. Now
it is 5 days after my 2nd IUI, and I have
started with the pain again. It is not as
intense but I am crampy on both sides
including my back. The pain scares me as
well as excites me. I hope it is due to
pregnancy, but worry that something may be
wrong. I had the pain last month (week
after the IUI) but not as intense. HAS
ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCE THIS AND WHAT IS IT
DUE TO. thanks
