Found out today that our first fet failed. I already took my progesterone shot and morning estrace today but will not take it tomorrow.

Wondering, if you've had a fet that didn't work, when did you get your period after stopping progesterone and estrogen?

Mine has always come just a few days after stopping meds. And just been like a normal period. Hopefully you’ll be the same so you can start to look forward to the next of those 5 little frosties getting their chance x

I've been the same. Last meds on a Tuesday morning would mean period on Thursday or Friday for me. Hope you get it over with quickly - the day my period starts is always the worst day of the whole cycle for me, physically, mentally and emotionally so it is always a relief to get it out of the way.

I had a cancelled cycle in November so took both meds up until 5 days before what would have been transfer day. My period ended up being 2 weeks later than expected, so I ended up with a 42 day cycle!

My clinic said it should been the usual 28, or just a couple days late. Was really annoying as I then missed the December cut off for Christmas and had to wait until January to start again!

I'm a bit nervous as otd is tomorrow and if negative I'm not sure when to expect my period as I've been on the meds over 2 weeks longer this time!

I'm keeping hope and good thoughts for you on your otd!!

sorry for your failed transfer, I also had a negative on Sunday, took my last progesterone on Saturday night and took my estrogen patch off straight after the test. I started bleeding yesterday, mines a lot heavier than a normal period which my clinic said is normal. Hope you’re ok xx
