Hi everyone,

I’m looking specifically for experiences with prednisone in IUI cycles after ovulation or around/during conception and early pregnancy.

Would really appreciate if you could share:

- When did you start prednisone (before ovulation, after ovulation, or after a positive pregnancy test)?

- If you started prednisone after ovulation but before a positive test, did you notice any difference in implantation or pregnancy outcomes?

- Did your doctor explain the reasoning or significance behind the timing of starting prednisone?

- What dosage were you on and how was it tapered off? Did you notice any side effects?i

Also, if you’re comfortable sharing, did it lead to a successful pregnancy for you?

Thanks so much in advance—really appreciate any insights or experiences 🙏

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to understand how progesterone support is used in early pregnancy, especially for those who’ve had prior losses or needed luteal phase support.

If you’ve taken progesterone:

- What dosage were you on?

- Which route did you use (oral, vaginal, injections)?

- When did you start it (e.g., after ovulation, after positive test, etc.)?

- Did your doctor monitor progesterone levels or just prescribe it empirically?

- Do you feel it made a difference in your outcome?

If you’re comfortable sharing, a bit of your background (like previous losses, diagnosed conditions, etc.) would really help add context.

Thanks so much 🙏

Looking for recommendations for a good gynecologist or fertility specialist in Mumbai for hysteroscopy.

Prefer doctors who:

- Do hysteroscopy themselves (not just refer out)

- Are thorough with diagnosis (adhesions, polyps, chronic endometritis, etc.)

Would really appreciate personal experiences (good or bad).
