I am about to have my 1st IUI next week, and I wanted to check with anyone who has had one, does your Dr. recommend also having sex before and after? Mine said something about Day 12 but nothing else about afterwards.
Thanks!
Thanks!

It depends....are you doing just one IUI...or one and then another a day later? If the later of the two,,,,,your DH needs to save up....having too much BD can decrease sperm production...so wait until after both procedures and then BD as much as you want.

There is nothing worse than being told you can't!

No sex a couple of days before the IUI so that DH's sperm count can be the best. My doctor told me to go ahead and have sex whenever I wanted after.

my first IUI we waited 3 days (they delayed IUI by one day)and had 36mil.second one we only waited one day and had 15min.just had my third one and waited 2 nightsand got 28mil.they say anything above 10mil is good so i think we found a happy medium.RE did say to go home and have sex and we did immediately...and again that night.had some catching up to do lol

We didn't beforehand but my RE said to BD afterwards as much as we like. His exact words were "every little bit counts so go home and try to get in the mood tonight."

Thanks for all the responses. My RE mentioned a few days before (day 12) so I'll have to ask him why. Thanks again.

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
