Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I had a first IUI one week ago. The egg was to rupture on the same day. Egg size was 22.5 mm and endometrium size 6.6.mm. Also, for the past one month, I am taking oral Susten 300. How much chance is there for successful implantation?

Answered by Dr. Sameer Kumar

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The protocol has been rightly addressed with IUI (intrauterine insemination) at 22 mm follicle size. The follicle would have ruptured in the next 12 to 16 hours. Hence, the sperms were already present prior to that (which can stay alive for 72 hours in the female reproductive tract) and then progesterone support is provided with Susten 300, which is correct. You must wait till the 1st of next month ideally to check for pregnancy with a serum beta hCG test (human chorionic gonadotropin), which can be conclusive. Chances in any case of IUI remain 30 % - 35 % as per statistics.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
