Drinking alcohol during downregulation

I’m currently on day 6 of 12 of downregulation. I haven’t drank any alcohol since New Years Eve where I had half a bottle of champagne. It’s my partners Birthday today and we’re out celebrating it together. What are people’s thoughts on drinking at this point in time? Last time I did an egg collection I recall being quite strict about drinking even in downregulation.

When my friend was pregnant and turning 40 her obgyn told her to have a glass of wine! 🤣 I think you're absolutely fine. Enjoy! 🍷

my specialist has said that alcohol in moderation is totally fine during or before stims, not after a transfer, so think you’d be fine 😊
