Cancelled fet due to cystic spaces during lining check

[JoyB8]

Thave never had a cancelled fet cycle, last week ! went for lining check they said it's not there yet.

They told me to come back a week later, I was on 3 estrogen patches alternating day protocol, after the lining check they added two estrogen pills vaginally. Today I went in, the doctor doing the lining check said, she saw wat was called cystic spaces, I did hysteroscopy on Feb and it was all clear. Dr said could have been due to extra vaginal estrogen, I did tell her I never had this issue in the past having been in this journey from last 7 years. I'm waiting for instructions from the clinic.. Has anybody had this issue happen, what and how bad is it . Looks like all the injections and medicine I have been taking is all wasted. I was in birth control for a month, then started on triptorelin injections close to 40 days but I don't want to transter my embryo and lose it as doctor said it's not an optimal env for embryo .

I only have 2 left and was planning to put an end to these treatments. After all it had been a long journey since 2018 . Anyone has any such prior experience let me know how and what happens after this

yes, I’ve had that - last year. I went back to clinic after D&C following a TFMR at 14 weeks and when they were checking me if I was good to go for an FET they said I couldn’t proceed because of these ‘cystic spaces’ in my lining. Like you, they’d never been seen before so I was completely shocked when they told me. I had to have a hysteroscopy and they took a biopsy. They tested the samples, they came back all clear and we were able to proceed. I’ve since had several FETs and those cystic spaces have never been seen or mentioned again, including by my new clinic who did a significant number of investigations at the start of the year - it was a really strange interlude. I suspect it was because I was on a medicated cycle for a long stretch beforehand.

Sorry for ur tfmr loss . Those were one of the worst times I had been thru .That’s looks similar to mine . They put me on B.C. and triptorelin ink for close to 40 days followed by estrogen patch for 14 days but when they added vaginal estrogen that’s when this happened . May be too much estrogen could have caused this , nurse could not say that for sure . Waiting for my doctor appointment to be scheduled .

Good with your next appt. For me it wasn’t anything serious so I hope that’s the same for you! 🤞🤞
