A member asked:
Can natural iui with hcg trigger shot cause (severe) ohss? if yes, how to remove the risk?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
I have never heard of a natural cycle with an HCG trigger leading to OHSS. I don't think it's possible. OHSS is by definition a side effect of ovarian stimulation which comes with certain medications like Follistim or Menopur (not HCG).

Very unlikely. I have never seen a report of this. We see OHSS after medical stimulation of the ovaries

My follicle scan today is 18.53mm. My HCG trigger shot is scheduled for tomorrow. My IUI is scheduled the day after the trigger. Could the follicle rupture spontaneously before the trigger shot and IUI? I don't want to miss my chance. What do I do?
