ICSI failure symptoms

[Freckles80]

Has anyone had any pain after having a failed embryo transfer at blastocyst stage (ICSI)? I seem to be having cramps a lot.

Cramps are totally normal after embryo transfer x

Thank you. Are the cramps normal even if the treatment has failed?

Your uterus definitely has a reaction to having the catheter put in and you get cramps for a while after that. If your transfer was so long ago that you've now had a negative test, though, that sounds like you're having premenstrual cramps? It would be too long after the transfer to still be caused by that, I think, assuming your transfer was ten days ago or longer?

Very true. Good point.

I’ve had a strange first period - short, lighter and change in colour. That’s coming to the end now. Strange times.
