Too much medication?!

9 Replies

I am preparing for my FET and my lining is triple lined but only 7.8mm after two weeks of estradiol.

My FET is delayed by two days, and now I am on insane amounts of medication:

- viagra (inserted inside me)

- estradiol gel

- estradiol tablets

- baby aspirin

- thyroid medication

- hormone patches on my abdomen

- an IV drip to prevent NK cells (although haven’t been tested for them)

- injected hormone into my womb

Is my doctor trigger happy with all these drugs, or is this normal?!

😳❤️

I’ve been recommended these by a clinic in London, but their statistics are triple any other clinic, so I assumed he knew what he was doing.

It’s so hard... i don’t have answers but have heard of this before

Thank you for the reassurance ❤️ I guess I will keep going with the pill popping 😂😂

Some of us just need more medication for our bodies to respond! I usually have a heap of meds too and to be fair the more Ive added in the closer Im getting so cant be bad. Im usually on:-

Estradiol patches

Estradiol (prognova) tablets

Prednisolone (steriod) tablets

Bbay aspirin changing to Clexane injections (blood thinner) nearer transfer

IV Intralipids

Levothyroxine (thyroid) tablets

Progesterone (cyclogest) pessaries

Next time adding Lubion injections (extra progesterone as my levels as low)

Sheeeesh quite a list too! Good luck.xx

Me too! This is pretty much the identical list to me...

As always, thanks so much for the reassurance. It really helps ❤️

Still a bit bizarre to be inserting bright blue viagra tablets inside myself...but, hey, I will try anything 😂😂

Ive not tried viagra, about the only thing I havent! Lol I have done the progynova vaginally which is tough as they are such tiny little blighters....didnt make a difference so onto the patches it was! I dont seem to absorb meds very well, my body just says no! Im at the point where I will literally do anything they tell me to get it to work....and I mean anything! ha ha ha xx

Ha ha! I feel you! Same...my lining has grown 0.2mm in 7 days! When you were on stims back in the UK, did they not absorb either?

Just keep going! I feel the best round is your round ❤️

I did ok with stims, I always managed to get there for eggs....took a couple days longer than most. Its mostly doing FET that my body is resistent to estradiol to increase my lining (as Im using DE now) and Ive just discovered that I dont absorb progesterone very well now either....which I suspected in NHS cycles (as I bled before test day) but got told that wasnt possible......anything it seems is possible with me!! Ha ha haxx

in reply to Cinderella5

Everything is also possible! Next round is your round 💪🏼❤️
