Natural FET cycle

[Indigoa]

Hello, I have sadly just had my first failed medicated frozen cycle. The doctor has recommended we try again in my next cycle and this time do a natural cycle.

I feel nervous my body may not respond without the support even though I have 28-31 day cycles.

Can anyone share any success stories with changing to natural after a failed medicated ?

Hiya, I've only had a natural FET due to having to do a freeze all as a result of getting OHSS in November. It was successful.

They took bloods to gauge when I ovulated then transferred after that. I then had a progesterone injection to support implantation and was advised not to use suppositories that I woulda used if it was a fresh cycle.

I was upset at having to wait to do an FET but now I think i had a chance for my body to recover and detox a bit from all the drugs.

Maybe i was just lucky... Who knows but i think natural is worth a try. All the best. Xx

Thank you that’s really good to know. I also had a freeze all cycle due to OHSS and then they did a medicated in the following cycle.

How long did they make you wait?

I’m wondering if next cycle will be too soon?

They only made me wait till my first proper period came after coming off all the stims. So instead of fresh transfer in November, i had my one and only FET January 10th. Not too long a wait at all but when you've been absolutely dying to get pregnant for years, any wait or hiccup is torture!

I was a bit shocked to find out they wanted to do a natural FET as i was convinced there was something wrong with my body that has stopped me getting pregnant naturally before but lots of women here put my mind at ease.

I think if you search for "natural FET" in this forum you might see lots of posts advocating for it.

Natural FET worked for me. Sadly I miscarried but I would choose a natural cycle again. So much easier on you and for me, I feel that helped hugely x
