It could be semen, but I wouldn't think so because the place the semen behind the cervix straight into the uterus.. Could it be fertile mucus?  Where you on injectables?  Injectables increases your estrogen levels and that can increase the mucus also.  Even if it is the semen, I wouldn't worry about it because the important part (the spermies) know which direction to swim.

Best of luck to you..

I do not think it is semen.  Probably is fertile cervical mucus.  If you BD for the next few days you will increase your chances.

Hi Silvers 1

I had my first IUI on Wed last- and was told that the mucus after was cervical mucus not sperm. Nurse advised that because the sperm was injected into the uterus it couldn't come out.  How have you been feeling ? I had a lot of cramping up untill today. Love to here from you .

Good luck
