Late period after egg retrieval

[JB124]

hi everyone. It’s been a while since I posted.. hope everyone ok.

I always use to get my period on day 28/29. October/November 2022 we started our IVF journey and December we had a failed fresh embryo transfer. My last two period have been on days 34 and 31 and now I’m on day 32 and no sign of period starting (not pregnant). We meant to start our frozen cycle this month and waiting for aunt follow to show up so I can commence by Secound transfer ( first time in ages actually wanting aunt flow to show up) Has anyone else had a change in their cycle? And is it normal?

Hi JB124, yes this has happened to me multiple times after egg collection. My clinic always say my period will appear at normal time, but for me it's always been delayed by a couple of weeks. I totally get your frustration with just wanting to get on with it! Hoping it appears soon and all the best for your frozen cycle when it comes x

I'm in same situation. Had 3rd failed fresh cycle in December. Due to start first froze cycle this month and still no sign of period, but I am sure its going to come any day now! Currently on cycle day 33. Not pregnancy tested. Periods were always a bit haywire after the fresh cycles so sure it is just delayed.

The medication you were on can cause delay with your cycle as the previous posts have said Hoping your period comes soon so you can start your next treatment If still concerned [ and bleed does not appear] you should let your clinic know

Good luck

I am sure your period will come soon. My periods were always late after egg retrieval.

Did my egg retrieval end of march 2024. Froze all my embryos because I got ovarian hyperstimulation (OHSS). I have PCOS and my cycles are usually around 30 days. I got my 1st period 5 days after my egg retrieval (which was early at day 19). Got my 2nd period really late (at day 42).
