hi everyone, I had 3 FET, all with implantation but miscarried all. Decided to do an ERA for my fourth transfer and results came back as me needing a 6th day of progesterone versus the traditional 5. We followed that and the transfer failed. Didn’t even implant.
Should I repeat the test, or just keep to what has always worked, which is 5 days of progesterone? Versus what the ERA recommended. Thank you!
I don’t think the evidence is that strong for ERA. I know of quite a few who had no luck following the ERA protocol then when ignored it had implantation and a successful pregnancy.
I had the ERA done with EMMA/ALICE. But I’m now ignoring the ERA result as not helped me.
My ERA came back as needing an extra day of progesterone. I transferred a PGTA tested embryo in the summer with the new timings and it failed. Did the standard timings a few times in the past, one implanted but I lost at 15 weeks (nothing to do with progesterone). I also did standard timings a few weeks ago, completely ignoring the ERA, and it implanted although sadly it's another loss x x my conclusion in my personal case I think I will be ignoring the ERA in the future as it seems to change anyway?
Last year research showed following the ERA protocol can actually worsen your chance. Dr. Child explained it last week in his q&a: instagram.com/reel/C4NauYcM...
I think all clinics should be conducting all of these tests constantly to monitor how they're doing as well. Don't they want success too? My clinic has put most of us on a very basic program, and the diagnostics are up to us to instigate, which I find counterintuitive. I really wish you all the best in the coming near future.
All of these pieces of information are helping us to make our own minds up - even if we're not getting the benefits through our respective clinics.
I had a hysteroscopy then lots of blood taken. From the blood taken they isolated the platelets and a week later injected the platelets into my lining to thicken it before transfer. Initially we couldn’t get the thickness of my lining over 5.5mm and the clinic wanted it to be over 8mm.
I had this treatment done in Spain. It’s not something they offer in the UK, I don’t think.
My progesterone levels were fine at transfer but dropped dramatically after transfer and I was them put on two Lubion injections per day until I was 12 weeks!!
I’m now 27 weeks! X best of luck

ERA results back advice please? 
ERA experience - is it worth it?
