Natural FET or HRT FET??

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone can share any advise....

I have to date carried out 2 Natural cycle FETs (using no medication) and both have been Negative.

To my knowledge I don’t have any fertility problems as such (I’m from a same sex couple) and I do ovulate, but normally my periods can be anywhere from 27-35 days.

I am just wondering whether I should go down the route of HRT cycle of FET and whether it would increase my chances? Or am I best to persevere with natural cycles?

Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

I was debating on a natural FET as the EC with all the hormones was horrible on my body. My consultant understood but advised me on having a medicated FET as it’s much easier for the clinic to get the timing for transfer more reliable therefore much more successful. It’s not so bad either and not half the hormones required for EC,,, I have no problems with my period and I’m also bang on every 28 days but I didn’t want to take on anymore risks of it not working and wanted to make it as easy as possible to get the timing right. I’m day 5 after transfer and I have numerous signs of a pregnancy but staying grounded until OTD ,,,, I’m so glad I had the HRT cycle, it’s my first ivf xx I wish you both all the success on your journey xx
