Can you still have cervical fluid 3 days after an IUI?
Yes. It is still possible to get `fertile` (stretchy) cervical fluid (cm) days after ovulation due to estrogen. Fertile mucous should stop after ovulation, however this is not always the case.FYI- If you have one IUI scheduled 24 hours after the trigger shot, try to have intercourse at 36 hours or 48 hours after the trigger shot just in case, as washed sperm (natural intercourse) live longer than washed. If you have 2 back to back IUIs scheduled for 12 hours and 36 hours after the trigger shot, try to have intercourse 48 hours after the trigger shot. Also, try to have intercourse 2 days before ovulation (remember unwashed sperm can live in fertile mucous for a few days) to increase your chances and also to freshen the sperm for the IUI.Good Luck on your journey!
