When Is The Best Time For Intercourse While On IUI Treatment?
Hi, I am on a 26 day cycle, now at day 12...we are hoping to have an IUI done in two days. We are monitoring a follicle that measured 18x18 mm yesterday. I would like to back up the IUI with intercourse. When do you think it would be best to do this ? Additionally, when would it be mature enough to ovulate without induction ? I am going to inject myself tonight to induce ovulation. Please help ! Desperately at 43yrs, my husband is 58yrs old...we are still in the race with a very energetic 2 yr old !
Thanks and God bless.

Hello, it will be better to have injection because it will lead to co-ordinated rupture of eggs and thus increases the chances of conception.
Back up with intercourse can be done after IUI anytime within 48 hours of injection of HCG.
