Hey Guys, hope you're well. So i'm currently down regging stage at the moe, 5 days in! They told me to call them on the 1st day of my period which i'm predicting won't be till end of next week/weekend,. They will then go thru the next steps with me, which i'm not 100% sure is. Can anyone tell me whats happens next and how long it will be till the egg transfer, i'd like a rough idea as to when i'd get the Drs note for the 2 weeks off as I wouldn't mind getting away if i can, or not sure wether I need to be around for anything else in that time?

Thanks ! x

Hey, you are on the down regulation stage at the moment.. after your period youll have a baseline scan and blood test to check your down regged and to make sure they put u on correct med level. they will give you your stimulation meds and start date which you will do in the evening.. after so many days they will have you in for a scan to see how follicles are developing.. u might have a couple of those scans.. think stim takes average around 12 days ish. Then egg collection xx
