Want to opt for IUI for personal reasons
I have PCOS and have been TTC for over a year. I'm on my first round of Femara, 5dpo and I have a got feeling that it's not going to work. Both my SO and I have very demanding high stress jobs and timed intercourse this month was just stressful with all the OPKs and trying to make sure we both have time to do it as we usually BD only on weekends.
So has anyone ever opted for IUI to avoid the stress of timing the sex? I feel like I don't enjoy it as much when I have to constantly stress about it. My doctor mentioned IUI but I did not ask further questions thinking BD will not be an issue as SO and I enjoy it but it's just not worth the trouble. So if this cycle I'm not pregnant I want to do an IUI even though it's not really a necessity and we can keep timing sex. Is it selfish or wrong to just want to go in, have the procedure and then wait and see if it works instead of constantly peeing on OPKs, trying to match schedules, etc?
