Hi all! This is sort of a follow up post to my last one. My husband and I are considering IVF for our next and last pregnancy.

Hi ladies, I’ve just had my negative result from my 2nd frozen transfer and I feel so numb. Im an ‘unexplained infertility’ girl, has anyone else after a second failed transfer thought to themselves that there has to be more as to why this isn’t working? I had 30 eggs retrieved, but over 60% were

Hi all! Husband and I are trying for baby#2. However I’m in my 40s & if it doesn’t pan out naturally we might try IVF. I froze my eggs when I was 35, so hopefully one way or another we can have another child and a sibling for my daughter. I already “have the eggs” extracted so it wouldn’t be necessary

Hey Ladies, I thought I’d ask on here as I’ve been asking myself the questions and going around about it in my head.

Hi everyone, Im hoping someone who has been through a modified natural FET could share if estrogen was added to your protocol?

I posted earlier about my cancelled medicated FET. The medicated FET was cancelled on day 18 because my body was not absorbing the oestrogen tablets enough and lining wasn’t thickening. I was told to expect my period within one to two weeks.... I am on day 31 now (13 days after stopping oestrogen

Hi, these are a friends recent blood test results, she hasn’t been diagnosed with anything but will be having a blood test at the Drs shortly. Does the raised antibodies mean she has autoimmune thyroditis, the TSH is slightly high and T4 lower end of range, also her oestrogen is low… could that be

(Tw: decent results) Hi everyone, after over a year of planning (and faffing!), I finally did my egg freezing cycle last week, and got 17 eggs retrieved and 13 frozen.

My medicated FET was cancelled on day 18 because my body was not absorbing the oestrogen tablets enough and lining wasn’t thickening. I have not ovulated this cycle so I’m just wondering when I should expect my bleed? Anyone else been in this situation and how long did it take for your bleed? I’m
