I'm currently doing ivf and im on 3 months of down regulation to prepare for embryo transfer l. Has anyone had lasting side effects with down regulation for this amount of time (ie zoladex/lupron/synarel)

Hello, i dont have any advice but have just found out i have Deep Endo and Adenomyosis through an mri scan. Waiting for my follow up next month. I was supposed to start my ivf cycle this month but put it on hold as i wasnt sure if it was the right thing to do before throwing all that money away. Was you advised to freeze embryo’s beforehand? Also i read ivf drugs can make Endo worse - is this your understanding too?

Many thanks
