Medicated vs natural FET cycle

Hi fertility friends

I had a failed FET (3BB) after doing a semi natural cycle with just Femara and ovitrelle

The doctors want to try a fully medicated cycle with my last embryo

Is there a marked improvement in chances?

I feel like my embryo was the issue not the uterus as my liking and progesterone levels were great and I have conceived naturally before

I once read that the uterus is almost always ready to recieve but there could be a million things wrong with the embryo

It’s my last chance so I’m so anxious as my hubby refuses to do any more egg retrievals (I had emergency laparotomy and Was in hospital for two weeks after my last egg retrieval as the doctor injured me)

hi, my opinion is that you should change the way.i had 3 BFN (in medical and fresh cycles) my BFP was with Natural frozen embryon transfer using only ovitrelle.

i think that the medical is used for someone that has an issue (this is my personal opinion)

my body didn't like to be medicated.

good luck for you in whatever you decide.

I also feel like my body doesn’t like to be medicated. In 2019 I did 6 rounds clomid, 8 rounds Femara , 2 iui and then amazingly I fell pregnant naturally a month after taking a break . Sometimes I feel like the drugs reduce fertility . Thanks for the response and hope
