Advise needed :)

Hello, I am currently day 12 of down regulating, we have one frozen embryo (EVERYTHING CROSSED) and ww have decided on using embryo glue. I was wondering on what people thought of the scratch? Any advise would be very helpful, thank u xxx

Hi

As you are already down regulating you won't be able to have the scratch, this needs to be done before you start typically you'd have it on day 21 when you start down regulating.

We've had it this time around although I won't know if it helped or not for a while yet (we have our fet booked for Tuesday if little one defrosts ok)

Good luck x

awww, thank you for ur reply. I only heard of it a couple of days ago. Soo much out there! I have EVERYTHING crossed for you. Are u going to use the glue? Love and hugs xx

Hi unfortunately they don't use the glue at Leeds so it's not an option but have had the scratch and I'm taking the fragmin injections too so hoping that Tuesday is a good day and that little Frostie thaws ok.

It's really easy to get caught up with all of the extras, I nearly had a meltdown with our first cycle when I thought we were not going to be able to use the embryo scope!!!

Lots of luck to you too xx

can I ask what a embryo scope is please? And the fragmin injections please ? Tues will be a good day for us both , I have my baseline scan that day xxx

The embryoscope is used on fresh cycles it's like the incubators that monitor the eggs once fertilised but it takes photos every ten minutes so they don't need to take the embryos out to check on them. The fragmin is a blood thinning injection, it's supposed to help with implantation as our first fresh transfer failed so we are trying that.

Ohh good luck for Tuesday if you've down regulated you'll be able to start on the estrogen tablets.

I know we all need to feel like we've given it our all. All we can really do is eat well and look after ourselves. Try not to worry (easier said than done I know!)

Have a good weekend xx
