More fertile the month after failed ivf?

I had my first round of ivf last month but on my otd on 9 Feb I got a bfn. Two days later my af arrived. I was on menopur 225 for 8 days before my ovitrelle 250 trigger shot. I have been using opks since CD10 and yesterday (CD18) my test showed “high” fertility and today I had my “peak”. Just wondering if we are more fertile the cycle after a ivf cycle due to all the drugs? We are trying to conceive naturally this month and wanted to hear your thoughts on this :)

Thanks in advance xx

I have heard those rumours as well and I don't think they are true and that you will conceive when you are good and ready for it!

I’m always good and ready for it haha. I think it’s more my eggs that are not quite but as I’m not getting any younger I doubt they will suddenly get better in quality 😒

I heard that as well. No harm in trying eh? Our second failed as well and I was on all the same doses and meds as you. Hubby and I will be having a fun week just incase it’s true. 😂😂.

Good luck xxx

We have all heard it then it must be true 😏😏😏. True true true...I so hope that it is. It would save me a lot of 💰 too if I manage to get pregnant this month before embarking on a new ivf cycle. I wish you all the best of luck and do keep us updated with your journey. Xx

I have heard you are more fertile but I was also told not to use ovulation tests for 3 months after MC or ivf as your hormone readings won’t be accurate - good luck xx

Thanks. My new clinic asked me to use ovulation tests and mark down all my dates for the next two months (plus blood tests on certain cycle days) before starting my second round of ivf in April. So I hope they are somewhat accurate 😖
