Bleeding after ICSI

[Angelpopa]

I am not on day 11 following a 2 day embryo transfer, I have been bleeding red blood for 2 days some clots although not sure if they are from the progesterone gel. Can anyone lend some help or support?? Blood test is Friday 3 days time

Hi Angelpopa, it sounds like you have some symptoms that are naturally concerning for you. I'd definitely ring the hospital tomorrow to see if they can offer reassurance, advice or an early blood test as if you're anything like me, the 3 days of waiting without their support might feel like forever for you. The progesterone can cause irritation and some form of bleeding and if it is down to that they may suggest an alternative form/way to take it. In any case, know we're thinking of you, try to get some rest and gwt thst support in the morning.

Best wishes for everything to be ok for you my lovely xx

Thank you so much for your reply, very kind. I did ring the clinic and they told me to carry on with progesterone and still come for blood test but that it is probably bad news! I've read quite a few stories on here of people having clots and red bleeding and still being pregnant so holding on to a glimmer of hope! I'm not having my normal af cramps which is what's making me wonder!

Thanks again 😊 Xx

Fingers crossed the lack of cramps is a good sign and the bleed is nothing to worry about.

I'm rooting for everything to be alright for you and hope the Friday comes fast for you.

Sending lots of positive vibes and luck to you.

If you want to talk at all feel free to message me ok.

Hopefully the bleed will stop overnight! Xx

Hi Angelpopa. So sorry to hear this, but as you must have read here, it is so common to have a bleed during the 2WW. Most of them there is no explanation for, and they carry on to have a positive test, so we just have to continue with the progesterone and keep everything crossed. Just wanted to wish you good luck for Friday. Thinking of you. Diane

Thanks DIane, I'm so hopefully it turns out well, but I think the amount of blood I've passed and how long it's gone on isn't looking good! I will still have a bit of hope though as I have read a few people have red clotting for days, my boobs are still sore and I keep still having headaches 🤞

Thanks again for your support
