IUI and pain
Posted: 07-28-03 18:32pm

My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for the last 2 1/2 years. I am currently taking Clomid as well as Metformin. Clomid alone did not work. Last month (June '03) we had our 1st IUI (well I did) and it did not work. Just last week we had our 2nd IUI (July '03) and there was one more follicle than last time. I had two follicles on my right side and it hurt to walk during my ovulation surge. Last month it was also painful on both sides but not as much as this time. Was the pain due to ovulation and has anyone else experienced this type of pain. I would get sharp pains (cramps) and every step I took it was painful. Now it is 5 days after my 2nd IUI, and I have started with the pain again. It is not as intense but I am crampy on both sides including my back. The pain scares me as well as excites me. I hope it is due to pregnancy, but worry that something may be wrong. I had the pain last month (week after the IUI) but not as intense. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCE THIS AND WHAT IS IT DUE TO. thanks

I have experience bloating, pms type pain starting on day 11 or so, and continuing through the cycle. I also had sharp pains during my ovulation, and some cramping after the iui. I was definitelysore, and had trouble walking during the peak.

I don't know about pain coming back long after the iui. Hope you'll ask the doctor. Do you have nurses that call you with blood results? They're always very helpful for me.

I also just had an iui done and am experiencing terrible pain. My pain is terrible. I have been in bed for three days and am having trouble walking as well. I also wrote in a message to see if anyone experienced this. I am hoping it is a good sign.

Just had my 5th iui today, it wasn't very painful at all, I was worried... The re said I only had one follicle... That is why it was not painful..
I can related to it hurting when you walk.. . It feels like something is inside of you that is going to pop!!! Like gas pressure (not so much the farting kind ha ha) just pressure. My re says it is a good sign, and I can tell them which ovary has the follicle(s), before they do the iui!!! The side the follicle is in, is the side it hurts on. Let me know how you are doing and if it works for you... Good luck to you and all of us!!!
