Hi Ladies,

We are hoping to attempt iui before having ivf in hope to conceive.

Anyways - I ovulate every month on time everytime, and af is as regular as a clock, DP's spermies have been tested and we've been labeled 'unexplained infertility'

If I am reading the doco's right i would assume i dont have to worry about having any hormone stimulating drugs or the triger to release them?

My question is this - if you are like me, and ovulate regularly, and af is like clockwork BUT you were labeled with 'unexplained' and had to do iui were you required to have injections? or was the insemination the only thing you had to do? how many attempts did it take for you?

Did they check your tubes prior to doing the iui? or is this something they do at a later date?

I am hoping I dont have to play around with hormone stimulating drugs but if i have to i have to!

How did you find the procedure in terms of comfort? was there much pain? I have heard it is like having a pap? Is this true or is this something they say so women arent afraid to do the procedure?

Sorry for asking silly questions or q's that someone has asked before ..

TIA
