period like bleeding after fresh embryo transfer

Hi everyone,

I had my first transfer on Saturday. I started spotting Tuesday evening and then fully bleeding Wednesday and it’s still going now. Is anyone in the same situation where they’ve started bleeding 4 days after transfer? I know it’s probably not good news. I’ll continue with the progesterone as advised and do my test on 13th. I just didn’t expect to be bleeding so soon. I thought if it was going to fail I’d bleed towards the end of the 2ww.

Sending hugs to anyone else going through the same 💕.

Hi PozzaAndPasta. This is unfortunate, but it can happen. Keep up with any prescribed medication, and test on the day recommended by your clinic, I would let them know, in case they want you to double up ok anytime, and stop blood thinners if you are on any. Pessaries can be inserted into back passage if preferred. Good luck. Diane

Maybe ask them to test your progesterone or just up it? My consultant said you shouldn't bleed before OTD if the progesterone is working properly. It may not be that but it's quite an easy fix if it is and something to rule out.
