process for IUI

Good morning everyone,

I’ve had my first IUI behind me now. During the tests before the Pregnyl injections, it turned out two eggs were big enough and three on the other hand were very small. Ideally 2 eggs is exactly what you want. This week I had an ultrasound due to complaints where I was convinced I had seen the eggs in the uterus. I watched the gynecologist measure them and she said the smaller eggs had continued to grow. My question then for my own understanding is: At ovulation do all the eggs come out of the ovary (into the uterus)? What happens to the unfertilized eggs when you are pregnant and therefore not menstruating?

    At ovulation, only the mature eggs are released (about at the same time). And if these aren't fertilized, I think your body cleans them up/absorbs them on its own.
    I myself got pregnant with one baby after two mature eggs were released during IUI treatments.

    @Kruimel,

    I'd love to believe that. It's probably a little princess.
    Which medications did you get then..
