hi, 11 days post 5DT, BFN 😢 called my clinic at 8am this morning (Saturday) but closed until Monday. Paper work says to not stop drugs until I speak to the nurses but I really don’t want to stay on it uneccessarily. Has anyone ever been told to continue it with a negative test? X

our clinic don’t do bloods. I was my official test day so just seems to be prolonging the unnecessary. Also, lubion is EXPENSIVE!

really sorry for your BFP, it’s never easy. Was today your official test date? If you can do continue to take the meds as per your clinic instructions just in case though I know it is heartbreaking. In my second FET I got a BFN from day 5 which stayed negative all the way.. the injections between day 10 and Day 14 (OTD)were really upsetting to do so you have all my understanding xx

it was test day. I’ve stopped drugs. It’s technically 16 days since ‘conception’ so would deffo be positive by now if it was going to be, especially with clear blue xx

my clinic say if you not had a bleed stay on them for a couple more days and test again to make sure and then stop. I don’t bother with that now though like you say if it’s negative on test day then you just want to stop and move on. They don’t do blood tests and we don’t need to call them just email the result. I’m so sorry it hasn’t worked this time for you xx

thanks for this, your clinic sound like they give you a bit of control which is nice! The drugs are expensive so I have stopped them xxx
