Down Cycle between IUI and IVF

Hi Girls,

I'm on CD 5. I go in next week for my first IVF consult. I have this mth off from the drugs so we'll just try naturally. It feels strange not having a sono while trying to conceive! How sad is that! lol. Do you think I should use OPK and just go off my "usual" cycle?

Re: Down Cycle between IUI and IVF

i had that same month off in between too.. we tried naturally.. and just had fun.

i was going to use the OPK's. but then figured why bother.. let this month be totally FREE and not worry about a thing!

but of course it depends on how you feel!
good luck!!

I agree with D. It's your one month of freedom. Try to enjoy it while you can!

Re: Down Cycle between IUI and IVF

That is me this month, next month is another IUI cycle. I was going to buy the OPK's b/c I didnt notice any EWC.... but I said freak it! I am just goign to try and BD as much as I can this week and see what happens! good luck!

Re: Down Cycle between IUI and IVF

Thanks, Girls! I agree, I think I'm just going to enjoy this month and ban all testing (including OPK!) Freedom!
