Hi,I am Dr. Aniruddha Malpani (Infertility Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Will The Egg Be Viable For Fertilization After Undergoing IUI?
i have an iui scheduled tomorrow at 12 noon, and I was given an hcg shot at 6.30pm yesterday. Till 11.30 am today, follicle had grown from 18mm to 20mm and Endometrium lining grew to 7.8mm. What if I ovulate today around 5 pm? Will the egg be still viable for fertilization from tomorrow's iui?
Hi Don't worry the egg will be viable for fertilisation tomorrow. Ovulation usually occurs 36 hours after the HCG injection. Once ovulated the egg remains viable for 24 Hours. So you need not worry. Good luck. If you have further concerns contact me through Healthcare Magic. I will be happy to answer.
