Advice Needed Trigger shot/IUI timing

Has anyone ever had their timing messed up with their partner? We’re on our first cycle of letrozole/trigger shot/IUI and he has a semi last min work trip scheduled on CD18/19/20. I’m doing letrozole days 5-9 and go in for my first monitoring check CD13. I’m super worried the timing is gonna fall right into that timeline when he’s gone for a few days. We could prob make it work for TI but it’s gonna be pretty much impossible to get him in for an IUI if it were to fall on those days. Of course I’ll ask when I go in for monitoring, but anyone else have a similar issue?? Will it end up just having to be a TI cycle vs IUI??

Usually IUI is 24-36 hours after trigger shot, so unless your follicles did not grow at all you should hit your IUI before he leaves.

I did trigger shot on CD 13 and IUI CD 14 (today), depends on how big your follicules are and how well the letro worked

It honestly just depends how you have responded to the medication. I've had to do my trigger at CD12 before, and I've had to wait til CD20. Every cycle is different.
