My IUI was done yesterday and I am scared of doing anything wrong in this two week wait. I am resting but also wondering if normal routine is okay. What did you do after IUI that made you feel calmer?
My doctor said the IUI success depends mostly on timing and the protocol, which the clinic handles. From our side, take the progesterone support regularly, eat well, avoid smoking/alcohol and dont do heavy workouts. Follow their instructions closely.
Beta the biggest thing is to follow your doctors instructions and keep your mind calm. Eat nourishing food, sleep well, light walking is fine. Stress really doesnt help, so try to stay peaceful through the wait.
Take the support medication exactly as told and dont miss follow ups. If something feels off, like bad pain or bleeding, call your clinic. Beyond that, much depends on the medical side, so lean on your doctors guidance rather than random tips.
I wont pretend theres a magic trick, with PCOS it took me a few tries. What I focused on was sticking to my meds, healthy weight and not skipping the monitoring scans. Trust your fertility doctors plan, they tweak it each cycle.
After my procedures what helped most was just resting that day, taking all the prescribed meds exactly on time and keeping stress low. Honestly so much is out of our hands, be gentle with yourself in the wait.
