Ladies I have an IUI question please help.

Eri
My wife is having an ultrasound on Wednesday to see when she will ovulate. And once we know, our known donor will go get his sperm washed. My question is, how many times do you go and get IUI in one cycle? We are only doing it once and I don't know what the chances are on getting pregnant with just one try. She won't be taking any fertility drugs. This will be out first try with IUI at a doctor's office. Any comments or advice will help.

Some offices do one and some do two. If you want to do two, you could ask and see. My doc said it doesn't increase your chances that much, but I think it can, especially if you are using frozen sperm. For you, probably one will be good because fresh sperm lives a lot longer, which gives you a better buffer around timing. Best of luck to you!!

I just did an IUI once in a cycle and got pregnant. My doctor said you don't significantly up your chances by doing it more than once in a cycle.

Thank you for letting us know. We tried home insemination for two months and no luck. Hopefully this will do it for us. Congrats on the baby bump.
