I am due to have my FET soon and wanted to try steroids after reading SO MANY positive stories on here. I've seen people say it was the only thing that made a difference after so many failing. My clinic however are not keen to pursue this as they say there is not enough 'evidence' with regards to NK cells/steroids.
I have endometriosis and awful sinus issues which have both been linked with auto immune issues. I have never been pregnant after trying for 7 years in March (straight after we got married).
I really want to take a low dose steroid to improve my chances and make me feel better. No harm right? I have no faith in my body and any help will make me feel better. I am going to try and get a prescription to put me on them and speak to my GP too. I literally want to do all I can as this might be my last try with these little embies. I'm a little fixated on steroids and basically anything that will improve my chances 🙈 any advice would be so helpful xxx ❤

Not enough evidence just kills me, I am a living proof, steroids worked for me even though my NK cells weren't elevated. I had 3 chemicals in the past so decided to test my NK cells and results came back normal. My doctor put me on steroids and immunosuppresants and we been successful, I have 3 months old twins from that cycle. You have to try it also, there is no harm in it. Good luck 🤞♥️
Thank you so much ❤ I really think it makes all the difference. Do you need steroids and intralipids together? Or just steroids lol 🙈 I'm going to transfer 2 I think 🥰 twins how amazing xxx
Hi Littlepea.I think those that take low dose steroids, do so in te hope that they dampen down the immune system so that hopefully it doesn't see the embryo as a foreign body. One of the latest ones that are being tried is azathioprine which commonly used to prevent organ rejection in transplant patients - just something I heard about. Diane
