Late period after failed transfer

[Titawine]

Hello,

It was my fist IVF Cycle, I took a small doses of gonal and in the ponction we got 8 folicules, 5 fertilized and 3 made it to day 3 , all the 3 were 8AA , we did freeze two and did one fresh transfer, unfortunately 14 days later the blood test showed no pregnancy, so I stopped the progesterone but I did get my period, just spotting but really small spotting for 10 days, now I'm 30 days late , I went to the doctor , he sais my ovaries are calm and I have one cyst in my left ovary , he told me to wait for two weeks if the period didn't come I will take treatment .

I'm so worried, my period was never late I get my period evey 26 days. Last year I was diagnosed with pcos because my AMH level were at 6.9 , this year before ivf I did the test again and to my surprise it dropped to 2.9, during this year I did a ponction if a chocolate cyst and 2 iui , I don't know if all of this is normal or not , anyone got late period after ivf ?

IVF can definitely impact on your periods. Two periods ago, I got my period on day 35 instead of day 27. I think I may be late this month again. 😒

You are doing all the right things checking in with your doctor. I am sure he/she will guide you on next steps. All the best xxx

Thank you for your reply, yes I know that ivf treatment can have an impact on my period , I was prepared for it to be days late but 32 days late now and no sign of AF or ovulation or whatever. I will start progesterone next Thursday for 10 days and see if this will help

Yes you are right. 32 days is a lot! I hope it resolves itself once you take the progesterone. Did your doctor give a reason?

I had IVM and ended up with blighted ovum’s, the next few cycles were all over the place xx

Hi Titawine, sorry to hear about your failed transfer, sending you a virtual hug xIVF has certainly interfered with my natural cycle and after having a long cycle last year I asked my clinic for a scan to check on where I was up to. The scan (which was around 42 days since my last period) showed small follicles developing and a thin womb lining...so it was as if I'd had a period but I'd had absolutely nothing, not even spotting. The nurse advised me that it wasn't anything to worry about and that after having IVF medication patients may skip periods altogether...which they consider normal. She told me to wait until around day 56 and if nothing came they would prescribe medication to kick start my period again. AF appeared on day 48 so that cycle ended up being 47 days long, prior to IVF I had 28 day regular cycles.

If you are worried I would ask your IVF clinic for an internal scan xx

Thank you 😊, I will start the progesterone tomorrow for 10 days and see if I will get rid of the cyst and get my AF back
