Hi,
I have PCOS am undergoing stimulated IUI using donor sperm at present using Letrozole for egg stimulation and Gonasi as the trigger.

I have had so many strange symptoms yet getting repeated BFNs. I'm hoping someone out there has experienced similar as my clinic and GP haven't been very helpful.

4th Dec I had insemination
for the week after I had what I thought could be implantation cramps
15th Dec I had the Moderna booster
16th Dec nausea started, eased up around 23rd Dec
I also had 'egg white' fluid for the second week after insemination
I then had a 5 day, light bleed (dark brown blood) from 19th Dec so accepted I wasn't pregnant - my periods are usually heavy, painful and last at least 7 days
Straight after the bleed, the egg white fluid continued for about 6 days but has since gone from clear to white and more creamy
Throughout this whole time I have had mild cramping and twinges on either side
My temperature is at the post ovulation level but I've only just restarted tracking so cant see whats been going on for the last month.

Pregnancy tests continue to be negative 4 weeks after insemination... Because my periods are irregular I am prescribed Norethisterone to bring on a bleed as part of the fertility treatment - I am happy to try again but if there is any chance I could be pregnant I don't want to take this.

Has anyone experienced anything similar they can share?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there! Sorry you haven't seen a BFP yet... I used donor sperm too, I had some of the symptoms you mentioned too, but I had ivf. I decided to go straight to IVF because it has higher success rates. Have you considered it?
