Hi Ladies

I was hoping for some advice please.

I finished the Norethisterone on Tuesday, I was taking 3 a day for 1 week. I have my baseline scan on Tuesday, but I haven't bled yet....will this make any difference to starting the stims or does it not matter?

I'm worried in case it delays things.

Thanks xxxx

I bleed 5 to 6 days after last pill my first baseline on fresh was still too thick as only bled 2 days by time I had baseline scan on frozen I told them to book baseline few days later and was perfect timing, it won't make a difference they will probably still scan you and then repeats once you bled, on the fist time it only delayed by few days x

Hello Crocodile80

I was the same as you 1 tablet 3 times a day, my af didn't turn up until 10 days after!! I still had the scan but you can't start injections until your af arrives, when the af arrives you can start on day 2 of your cycle basically when it's full flow (sorry for the in dept info lol)

I hope this makes sense xxx

I stopped on the Sunday and bled on the Wednesday. Had baseline scan the following Monday and everything was good - I'm now on day 10 of stims and off to my next scan this morning!! Xx

Hi Crocodile80. It's just a waiting game I'm afraid. Try not to worry if it's late. However, the scan next week will still go ahead, then they will decide from there. Good luck! Diane

Thanks for all of the feedback and support. I suppose we can never know whats going to happen, and we should just take each day as it comes.

Thanks again xxxx
