Adenomyosis and IVF

[Shwet_16]

Hi everyone,

I have been diagnosed with mild Adenomyosis. I have read that people with Adeno don’t have a chance with successful pregnancies.

I will be grateful if you can share some success stories with Adenomyosis and what your clinic did differently.

Thank you x

Hi Shwet. Ye, I’m sure you will hear from some others who have been successful I hope you don’t, but if you ever need surgery on your lining, make sure it is a specialist who deals with adenomyosis. Good luck. Diane

Hi,I have mild adenomyosis and have a 5 week old, so it is possible. My clinic put me on a mock cycle before transfer and a short 1 month down reg. The down reg bit is important.

Good luck

Thank you. What is a mock cycle?

[Hopecontinues in reply to Shwet_16]

Mine was donor, so the mock cycle was all the drugs needed for transfer taken the month before.

I have adenomyosis and I’ve had 2 failed transfer but one successful and a now 2 year old! I down regulated too. Just trying again and this time having zoladex for down reg. good luck xx

[Shwet_16 in reply to Hanj10]

Thank you so much for your response. Is there anything else that the clinic suggested?

[Hanj10]

Not specifically but research I’ve done suggests an anti inflammatory diet and particularly cutting out caffeine can help which I did last time and am trying again this time x

[Hopecontinues in reply to Hanj10]

I forgot about that bit. I cut out all sugar for a month before the transfer date and up to the positive result. This included bread, pasta and potatoes.

hi I have quite severe adeno a large focal lesion at the fundus of my uterus and scattered patches throughout my uterus. It is possible I have a 20 month old son and a 5 month old daughter. I had zoladex beforehand and down regged with buseraline. I conceived both mine naturally after a failed fresh transfer, then a cancelled cycle during stims and then after egg collection and waiting for a frozen transfer I conceived my first miracle and I believe the zoladex, down regs and stims all had their part to play. I then conceived my second miracle when my first was 6 months old I believe I was lucky enough to still fertile enough from my first. I also ate a very protein based diet lots of fish and green vegetables changed to decaffeinated tea, took up yoga. I wish you all the best. X
