I'm thinking about the tubectomy operation for my wife and I have a few questions. What's the procedure like and how much does it usually cost? Are there different methods, and if so, which one is considered the best? Also, is it safe and are there any side effects we should be worried about down the line? Would love some advice on this!

I'm on my 14th day after IUI and I've been taking progesterone tablets. I've noticed some white discharge. Could this be a sign of my period or maybe pregnancy? I'm wondering when I should take a pregnancy test.
The white discharge you are experiencing could be a symptom of early pregnancy. It is common to have an increase in vaginal discharge during pregnancy. To confirm whether you are pregnant or not, you can take a pregnancy test. It is recommended to wait at least 14 days after the IUI procedure before taking a pregnancy test for accurate results.
