Delayed period after failed FET

Is it normal to be late for your second bleed after a failed FET? I had my bleed after my failed transfer (18th april) and I’m now waiting to start my next FET cycle. My cycles are usually 29/30 days max and I’m now day 36. No cramping like I usually get a few days before.

Has anyone else experienced this and if so how late was you?

Can’t help but think it’s because I’m waiting for it to arrive... Never wanted my period to start so badly! Xxx

Yes it is perfectly normal. The medication does funny things to your cycle.

It’s so annoying! I’ve started to get cramps so hopefully it will be today or tomorrow. I had a frozen transfer so thinking it was the prostap. I’m not having that this time.. thankfully.

Ohhh I think cramping is a good sign, I had that too before my period whereas usually I don't have that. It is very annoying. I never worried of that before the IVF process ... !

Hi Londongirl. Oh dear! It can take up to 3 cycles for your period to return to what is normal for you, so no need to worry yet, it will come. Diane
