Failed IUI

I just had my first IUI and it was unsuccessful.  I'm so upset and disappointed.  I'm such an emotional mess.  We've been TTC for almost 3 years now.  We're going to try again with another IUI but it just feels so hopeless. 

I'm going to try accupuncture later this week.  If nothing else I'm hoping it will help with stress, anxiety or depression.  Anyone have success with accupuncture?

I had 3 failed IUI's before I became pregnant with twins, so don't give up, have them switch your meds or if you are not on meds try them, they worked for me. I just had a failed IVF my first and I know remember how upseting it feels. Very sorry for you, but don't give up!

I was also on Femara and only had one mature folicle and four small folicles.  Hopefully I'll get more mature folicles this time.  Thank you for your support and advice!

I am going for the ultrasound and the scrip of clomid again in a few days> i started my menstral cycle also so.. I am ready to start again.(hot flashes here I come). If anyone has had some possitive effects with iui I would love to hear them.

I've had 2 failed IUI's and it is so sad.  I just expected the first one to work - it works for so many women, I thought it would for me as well.  The second one I was numb, couldn't even comprehend that it didn't work.  I was on Femara w/only follicle and wish I'd gone to injectible meds from the start as this last cycle I had 4 follicles (wrong ovary but hey, at least it's better than one!).  So we'll try again next cycle...if it doesn't work even w/more follicles I know I will be devastated.

I am in the tww of my fourth IUI.  We got pregnant on the second IUI but miscarried at 6 weeks.  I have been doing Clomid and trigger shot and usually producing 2-3 follicles.  We have been ttc for the last 3 years but only the last year with fertility treatments.  Stay positive and keep trying.

Well, got a  BFN on beta today.  Will start another cycle as soon as AF gets here.  It's funny how now I can't wait for AF to get here if I get a BFN.  I am hoping that the 5th IUI is the charm.
