I've been dealing with PCOS and a thyroid problem for the last 8 years, and I've noticed that after putting on weight, the skin on my neck and underarms has turned a darker color. I've already tried a bunch of home remedies like lemon, sugar, tomato, and baking soda but none of them worked. Can you suggest a solution for this issue?

I've been on progesterone from day 21 after my IUI, and I'm having belly cramps, so my doc gave me Drotin for the pain. I don't feel any pregnancy symptoms yet like discharge or sore breasts. Is this normal? When do pregnancy symptoms usually start? How can I tell if the IUI was successful?
It is normal not to experience pregnancy symptoms immediately after an IUI procedure. Pregnancy symptoms typically start appearing around 4-6 weeks after conception. To know if your IUI was successful, you will need to wait for a missed period and then take a pregnancy test. If the test is positive, it indicates a successful IUI. In the meantime, continue with your progesterone support as prescribed.

I'm a bit worried because even though all my reports are normal and I've been doing follicular studies for the last two cyclesI'm ovulating on CD13-14 and my follicle size seems finewe've been trying to conceive for over two years. My husband's report shows a 56 million sperm count with a motility rate of 65%, but the liquefaction time is more than two hours. Could that be causing us issues in getting pregnant?
Gynaecologist opinion is advised.
