Failed IVF cycles - never get to OTD

Hello,

I wanted to ask about others experiences about not reaching OTD.

In my 1st fresh cycle my period started 7 days post transfer and currently in my TWW in a FET. I'm only 2dp5dt but have period cramps and spotting. The same that I experienced in my last cycle and I always spot pre period. I'm not out yet but wanted to ask if anyone has experienced something similar? Or if your clinic suggested anything to help? xx

Check your progesterone, this is a very important step. I was also spotting before OTD but my tests were positive. On my last cycle doctor checked my progesteron and it was quite low, so they prescribed me progesterone injections. I had another chemical pregnancy but never spotted, not even after my OTD. Hope you will have a positive outcome 🤞♥️🤗

Thank you! The clinic has upped my pessaries but think I will need injections if we need another cycle. xxx
