I went for the initial appointment, then started the medication when I had period, went for a scan two weeks later and had the FET the following week. So only three appointments in total for fet x

Hi Lisa

We are doing our second medicated fet. We went to the clinic last week to sign the consenting forms, my day 21 is this weekend but I don't need to go back until 6th Aug for a blood test to make sure I have shut down, will go to the clinic for lining thickness scan (roughly a week or two after blood test) and then to the clinic once more for transfer at the end of August. So for me it's 3 appointments from day 21. Xx

No it's not too many appointments with the fet. My clinic don't do that, I do my injections at home. I will start buserelin on Saturday and will be on it until a few days before transfer. I think that some clinics do things differently. You should definitely be able to get a few days away. We are away between starting meds and my blood test xx
