Period after FET and progesterone therapy

Rainbowretrieval profile image

hi there.

Did anyone else have a very weak period after their failed FET? I’ve had very light ‘bleed’ just when I wipe for the last 2 days, FET was 5 days ago. I did have some what I hoped was implantation bleeding the day after the FET but only had 1 day where I haven’t had some kind of spotting since the procedure. Almost definitely not pregnant as tested. I am due on my period in 2 days (only usually 1 day early) but normally very heavy. Was expecting a heavier bleed than normal because of the progesterone but not sure anyone else’s experience?

hi Rainbow

On my earlier transfer I didn’t have spotting but started my period before the test day. My consultant upped my progesterone as a result. If you don’t spot normally I would defo let the clinic and your consultant know. My understanding is that the meds should be stopping you bleeding, unless of course as you say it’s implantation bleeding.

Also just to say you may have tested to early,

Hoping things do work out x
