Hi!
I have had the trigger shot for the past two cycles with an IUI and what your dr/nurse is telling you makes absolutely NO sense. There is no use in giving a trigger shot without an ultrasound- if the folicles are not at least 18mm (most want 20) then triggering will release an immature egg and pregnancy will not occur. So if they cannot tell what size your follicles are at, it is silly and a little reckless money/cycle wise to give a trigger. At 10 days, there is not really a very good chance of having a mature follicle. Most checks start at 12 dpo!!!
Good luck and let us know what happens!
Hope this helps!
Stick, little sprout, stick- in the right place!
Betas: 12dpo: 71; 14 dpo: 220! 18 dpo: 1446!!

Hi -
This whole thing makes no sense to me. I could not believe they would not give me an US 1st. I am going to be on Clomid CD5-9 and I don't know how my follicles could be ready on CD10.
I really don't like this dr. She is an OBGYN. She does not seem to know what she is doing. The 1st time I went in was during my previous 72 day cycle. She did not even give me a physical exam or anything. just talked to me for a few minutes then gave me Provera (which I did not do) and Clomid. I did not respond at all to the 50 mg of Clomid. So I just ended a 59 day cycle and she is bumping me up to 100 mg. I had to ask for the Hcg shot.
I also asked for CD3 blood work. The only thing they sent into the lab was LH and FSH. I asked for EVERYTHING! I know something is wrong w/me and they are not listening. I had +OPK for 6 days last week then got AF on Sat. WTH! I totally had other O signs too.
Sorry I guess I needed to vent!!
