Our embryo transfer was booked for yesterday (Wednesday). We had the call in the morning (8am) from the clinic to update us on the status of our embyros at day 5 (we already had our day 3 call). They confirmed that there was one slow one and one which could be ready but doesn't look to be doing anything anymore. They said they'd check it again in a few hours - no change. They said they'd give it one last chance and check at about 2pm - no change.
No embryo transfer yesterday, all meds stopped. We're re really upset, and lost.
Our clinic is sorting out details and will get back to us on follow up appointments.
We thought the second round would be better as the stims were changed to mature better quality eggs. Husbands sperm is fine, they had to use ICSI as it was a little low on that specific day - could be stress they said. It's been fine other times so it's passed off as a one off.
Looking for some hope. And stories from others.
We're going to take a few months out of the process, just relax, get back into exercise and be ourselves.
We're going to look into the following:
Supplements (clinic has leaflets for Impryl)
DNA Fragmentation
Endometriosis (I have had it excised a year ago, but worth looking at due to IVF meds)
A different clinic for a second opinion
NK Cells
Are there any other tests you think could be useful like hormones etc? Anything else you found useful?
I'm 37, coming up to 38, with AMH somewhere around 5.6 I think (tested March 2021).
When would I expect my period? And all the side effects / withdrawal from the meds to go away? I just feel so tired, bloated and puffy.
