IUI / trigger shot question (also posted in ttc)

I went in today on cycle day 9 (I usually ovulate on 12) had a R side follie of 20/21mm Dr said I could trigger today and come in forIUI tommorow and BD sat or I could wait and trigger tommorrow and come in sat for IUI - My concern is cycle day 9 seems too early for the follie to be healthy? But if I wait will I miss my window? Uggh next month im going to switch to a RE because I am so confused and dont feel like my OB/gyn is covering all bases.....I know I know I should have been seeing a RE......all along. So my questions are How soon after you triggered were your IUI's timed? and what was your folie size at the time of the trigger? and what was your cycle day.? sorry to be so long winded.....Chat Icon TIA

I have triggered on CD9 with an IUI on CD11 so you can't go by what CD it is. It only matters if your follies are mature and my RE would consider 20mm mature, ready to trigger. But this should also be confirmed by blood work, not just a sono.

Ideal timing of an IUI is 36 hours post-trigger.

I know you said you are seeing an RE next month and I really think that is the best next step if you don't get your BFP this month. REs entire jobs are to focus on getting you pg. An OB doesn't have the same specialization that you need.

Good Luck!!!

Good luck! They are mature at 20. My RE said anything over 18 is prime. I got my BFP when I triggered AFTER my IUI. That is not typical protocol but it worked for me! Good luck!!
