It can all go wrong šŸ˜¢

So I phoned the clinic this morning, told them about my tests but because I havenā€™t got a result on a clear blue and just on the strips theyā€™ve said itā€™s upto us if we go ahead!! Now they tell me they only recommend using clear blue and not just the strips!!

As we only have one embryo frozen we donā€™t want to risk it!!

Iā€™m now thinking I donā€™t ovulate on my own!! As Iā€™ve not peaked!

So stressed and had enough already xxx šŸ˜¢

Yeah think weā€™re gonna forget this month, I just so annoyed!!

You reckon I can ask for a medicated one instead!! We donā€™t want to be waiting each month for ovulation if itā€™s not gonna happen xx

Yeah thatā€™s trouble Iā€™m having!! Iā€™ve been testing since last Sunday thought I got a peak on Friday but nothing on clear blue xx

They should be able to do you a medicated cycle without down regulation if thatā€™s what you want. I liked the certainty of having medication but bear in mind youā€™re then on medication for three months.

No itā€™s that you have to stay on the drugs for three months after the transfer!

Progesterone (just like with normal ivf, your body doesnā€™t know to turn the follicle into a progesterone producing gland on a medicated fet, whereas on a natural fet it does) and I also had to take oestrogen and I know many women do after a medicated fet but I donā€™t know the exact reason for this and why you donā€™t have to take it after normal ivf.

I never showed on the purple ones. Which ironically are the most expensive, however the pink ones that just how a smiley face I always did, so I always stick with them now. Iā€™d be exactly the same as you not wanting to risk it, try the pink ones next month šŸ‘šŸ»x

Oh no wish they had stressed the right test to use at the start think you are right to wait until clearer result but get that you must be so fed up right now can your GP do bloods to show ovulation ? Wishing you all the best x
