It's on the day of EC, your clnic should have provided you with the info! From memory he should refrain for 5 days before he needs to provide his sample.

I hope all goes well for both of you.

I see what you mean. I think they usually expect them to do it before the 5 day cut off. It's always a bit tricky as EC day can change! Check the info from your clinic.

That happened to me too! I got myself in a right pickle about how clinical it was... "Don't have unprotected sex in case of you falling pregnant..." Weirdest conversation ever! Good luck!

Don't be scared. It wasn't so painful for me; but I only had 3 follicles removed. I didn't feel anything when they did it. I just fell asleep.

Just rest lots afterwards. Make sure you have lots of nice food in ready for when you get home to have after sleeping. And take the day after off work too. Good luck. xx
