I had a novasure 9 years ago. Very successful results. Now I’m on HRT and utrogestan isn’t agreeing with me. Can I have the mirena coil?

Natural FET possibly cancelled
I had a failed fresh transfer at the beginning of June. The plan was made to try for a natural modified FET this month as my cycles are regular and the risk of prenatal hypertension with a hormone FET was not ideal for me. I had my day 10 scan on Thurs and my dominant follicle was already 14.5mm but

Gabapentine
I have had RLS for many years. I am 85 years of age. My doctor prescribed Amitryptiline 10 mgs last year but I found that after a while it had no effect whatsoever. My doctor has now prescribed Gabapentine but on reading the leaflet with the package it has so many side effects that I 'm afraid to use
