Guys I have my embryo transfer today do I take a pessarie in the morning?

Also Is this all I’m meant to have been taking since egg collection, one morning and night and no injection? I’m worried about my lining HELP :)

Sashaxo,

Wishing you all the best, I will be thinking of you.

I was advised to have my morning pessary at the same time (for me 6.30am) I was told that they would 'clean up' down there if necessary when doing the transfer.

I was having one 400mg morning, one night and no injections (I also had estrogen patches)

I was then told to continue with pessaries as normal the evening after transfer.

Hope that helps

Positive thoughts for your transfer 🙏🏼 Do not stop taking your medication unless the clinic says otherwise. They will clean the area before transfer 😉 xx

I had mine yesterday afternoon and was told to take my morning one as everything would have been dissolved by the afternoon. Also told to continue my estrogen tablets (I’m on 3 a day). Had my last injection a week ago. They said after transfer continue both pessary (one morn and one eve) and tabs (3 a day) until test in 12 days time.

Don’t worry, your clinic will know what they are doing, if you were suppose to be on tablets or patches then they would have given them to you. every protocol is different. When did you have your scan? They would have checked your lining then and wouldn’t have booked you in for transfer till they thought you were ready x

I had the scan the Friday before egg collection on the Monday. Do the pesseraies help the lining ?? :) it was 12 but don’t get how it would stay the same without the injections

Yes that’s what the pessary does. I read that the progesterone acts on the womb lining and causes it to thicken in preparation for a fertilised egg to implant. My cycle was frozen so different to yours.

So happy for you to get to transfer! So you had bb transferred today? Why wouldn’t they freeze the others? I was kinda same. My cycle was frozen, Which I had 4. On Monday they thawed them and all survived, tues they said 3 out of 4 top grade. By Friday they said I had one top grade 5ab and was ‘hatching’ so that was transferred the other 3 were no good to Re freeze, despite they looked good on Tuesday. 🤷‍♀️

They wouldn’t keep the other three eggs, they just said they weren’t good enough to freeze. So I’ve got the Bb in me now. So nervous !!! With one frozen you feel like you have a background

I know me too..feel like I should be doing something different or feeling different and I don’t yet. Lower back ache today, but not sure related or not. We are both so lucky to have that one good enough to transfer, not sure how to deal with the 2ww... mine were frozen as I over stimulated so they wouldn’t transfer until I had 2 bleeds. I’m told pineapple is good after transfer...
