3rd Hysteroscopy tomorrow

[Littlepeax]

Hi guys, hope everyone is well ♥️

I am due to start a new cycle of IVF soon but before that I'm going to have another hysteroscopy to try and help as my last FET resulted in a chemical. My question is, is it more harm than good? Does it leave scarring? Last time they wanted to clear some excess tissue and take a biopsy. Does it really help with implantation? Has anyone got their bfp afterwards? I'm going to be awake during the procedure and it was quite painful last time.

Hi love is this womb scrape ? Xx

[Littlepeax in reply to Coral86]

Hey 😊 I think so, they call it a hysteroscopy. I've had polyps removed the 1st time but last time was more to take a biopsy as my lining was thick and had excess tissue 😕 but I think it is a scratch x

[Coral86 in reply to Littlepeax]

Hmm I did have a hysetroscopy but was put to sleep don’t think same thing xxx

[Coral86 in reply to Coral86]

They told me it was so the embryo could hopefully stick into it when scraped part of my womb only takes 30 seconds to do xx

[Littlepeax in reply to Coral86]

Ah ok thanks yes sounds different xxx ♥️

Hi Littlepeax, not sure if you've seen this study: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl... but it does seem to improve implantation. Hope all goes okay tomorrow, I'll be thinking of you xx

Thanks so much Keepingfaith ♥️💫 hope you're all good x

Hi

With my first 2 cycles implantion was successful for both embryos but I had 1 more fresh and 3 frozen unsuccessful transfers after and my consultant recommended a hysteroscopy after which I had and next frozen transfer was successful

[Littlepeax in reply to Olivialinney]

Thank you ♥️💫

Hi, sounds like your having the scratch which is a really quick procedure I had this on my last ivf round ( which worked ) to help implantation and I was awake for, I had a hysteroscopy in between ivf cycles to remove ( I think the doctor called it adejions ) also had polyps removed the same time whilst asleep - good luck x

[Littlepeax in reply to Becca1998]

Thank you ♥️💫 its defo a hysteroscopy as I have a letter. Yes think they will removed scar tissue etc but while I'm awake 🙈 glad it worked for you, fingers crossed x

Good luck Littlepeax I’ve had a hysteroscopy and was worried too about making things worse with scarring but believe it’s all fine - although still waiting for my success story!

Rest up after 😘xx

Hi,

I had the hysteroscopy on day 13 of my cycle before IVF. I was awake and found it so painful. Took a few days to recover.

But I am so happy I took the clinics advice and had it done currently 21 weeks. Hope it helps x

[Littlepeax in reply to Pondev]

Ahh amazing thanks ♥️💫 can I ask what day did you have your transfer? Was it soon after the hysteroscopy? X

[Pondev]

I had a fresh IVF cycle not frozen.

Hysteroscopy was on December 17th and transfer was on 20th January

[Littlepeax in reply to Pondev]

Aww ok, did they take your eggs after your hysteroscopy? X

[Pondev in reply to Littlepeax]

I had egg collection on 20th January sorry and the transfer on 25th January

[Littlepeax in reply to Pondev]

Aww ok thank you, huge congratulations to you ♥️

[Pondev in reply to Littlepeax]

Thank you. Being a tough road but good outcome in the end,

Hi, I am also due to have one at some stage. I would be very interested to know how long you have to wait between the hysteroscopy and the transfer. What made them decide you need one in the first place and then a second and third one?

[Littlepeax in reply to Lilly12255]

Hey .. I'm planning on starting my next cycle this month so hopefully soon after this hysteroscopy I will start taking the medication. I had my first one during my laparoscopy surgery 2 years ago to remove endometriosis. They noticed I had polyps too so decided to do a hysteroscopy at the same time to remove those. 2nd one I had just before my first IVF in Sep as they noticed my lining was very thick and wanted to take a biopsy for cancer (just in case) all came back fine and they managed to clear some excess tissue too. This time they think my lining is quite thick again and want to have another clear out lol x

[Lilly12255]

So it’s mainly for cancer that they are checking? Xx

[Littlepeax in reply to Lilly12255]

No not this time, think I have a build up of scar tissue that needs removing. I had a chemical last time so they just want to help increase my chances x

[Lilly12255]

How did they notice the scar tissue? (I am asking because I have never been checked so I am wondering whether I could also have scar tissue as I had a miscarriage).

[Littlepeax in reply to Lilly12255]

When they scan me they notice my womb lining is a little abnormal. Then they check by inserting a camera to have a better look x

[Lilly12255 in reply to Littlepeax]

Thanks. And how did they notice the endometriosis in the first place?

If you have scar it may prevent the embryo to grow. They did biopsy so maybe they wanted to make sure your health is ok. My gynecologist told me scars can make pregnancy complicated even in the delivery.. but mine was asherman so my knowledge is limited to only that syndrome .. if your dr is good just trust them xx
