Question: hi..this is follow up to my iui procedure..as i had mentioned earlier i have uti..it was manageable earlier and i started taking Solary 3 days ago twice daily and drinking plenty of water..
"SOLARAY" DIETARY SUPPLEMENT - MULTIDOPHILUS 12

Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I have read your query & I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) You can continue with diet suppliment. No problem.

2) Please give urine culture and start with the antibiotic your doctor will prescribe. It is better to according to urine culture report, and discussing with your doctor about possibility of pregnancy and safest antibiotic. It can be prescribed only after report comes.

3) Take canberry tablets and continue citravescent. It should reduce soon.

I hope I answered your query. I will be available for any followup queries you have.

thanks..i have given my urine culture and continuing with my probiotics and cranberry tablets..

just a query..i had mentioned earlier that i did my iui saturday morning but sunday i was having cramps and i did an ovulation test (sunday evening) and it was positive.. does that mean that the egg didnt fuse ie the iui was unsuccessful ..
sperm doesnt stay in the system for more than 2 days or so..

if the iui was successful on saturday then could the ovulation test still show positive on sunday..???

Hi,

Glad to hear you have given for urine testing. Lets check the report and start medicines.

Ovulation kit gives positive result for some time after ovulation also. There will be more than one follicle ovulating during stimulated cycle for IUI. Hence IUI was definitely useful. The positive test for ovulation is due to some more follicles that might have ruptured after IUI.

Thats the reason I had asked you to continue having intercourse after IUI which will help in fertilizing such follicles ovulating later.

I hope your doubt is cleared.

Hi, Its ok to have eggs. Even you can have dairy products. These are not related to UTI. Feel comfortable to have egg or dairy products. Regards, Dr. Mahesh Koregol. IVF & Infertility Specialist

Hi , Your bleeding could be due to implantation of the embryos or due to trauma during sex. Hence i suggest you not to have sex for sometime. Apply the patch and take medicines as per doctor's advice. Dont loose hope. Regards, Dr. Mahesh Koregol
