View allSo I had an iui done on September 21st, and my doctor told me to take susten 200 day and night for 3 weeks. Recently, I've been having some stomach or leg pain like my period might be starting, and then I took a pregnancy test today, but it was negative. Does this mean my iui didn't work? Should I stop taking susten or keep going? Just feeling a bit confused about what to do next.

I'm really confused right now. My pregnancy test came back negative after doing IUI, but I still haven't gotten my period. Should I stop taking progesterone, or is there something else I should consider?
If your pregnancy test is negative after IUI and your periods have not started, it is safe to stop taking progesterone. Progesterone is usually prescribed to support early pregnancy, so if you are not pregnant, there is no need to continue taking it.
