How long for withdrawal bleed?

9 Replies

I’ve been on the short protocol and had egg collection 10th August which had to be a freeze all due to possible overstimulation on Saturday I finished my progesterone pessaries and idea how long it takes for withdrawal bleed? We’ve got 11 fertilised frozen eggs x and again any idea when af arrives do the drugs affect it? Got to wait for a natural af before they can put the eggs bk in x

Thankyou

I think I was 4 days after stopping progesterone but it can take a couple of weeks. Unfortunately everyone is different!xx

I didn’t bleed till my next normal period due date after stopping the pessaries xx

I bled on day ten after egg collection (with egg collection being day 0). My next normal period was a few days late which is apparently not unusual.

Ps mine was a planned freeze all though so I hadn’t been on the progesterone pessaries which will probably affect things.

I’m in the same boat. I had EC on 13th August and I have been told to wait for a period..been told it could came anytime and ring back in a couple weeks if I haven’t had this and they will induce one as I’m so irregular. I’m so gutted to have to wait so long. They said I might even have to have 2 periods before they do the transfer..

Hope yours arrives soon! Do you know if they will do your transfer after one period? X

I have to wait for a withdrawal bleed first and then the next period after that I ring them x I’ve got pcos but my periods r regular normally

Mine started a week after my egg collection, my next period was 33 days after that(really long for me) and this month I haven't ovulated(not even an LH surge, which has never happened in two years testing) so two months after my hormones still haven't gone back to normal, I dont think you can expect anything with this your body will just go back to normal when its ready xx
