    Well tests have come back and we have what they keep calling a "baseline" result - every test I have they say it's "baseline"! Hence, the extra period mid cycle. But still no answers as to why this has happened. The scan today revealed a suspicious decomposing follicle which might explain why, but they are still uncertain. Scan today also revealed that the lining was still very thin - basically nothing there - probably because of recent extra cycle mid way through. Lots and lots of follicles though! Clinic now worried about another hyperstimulation scenario and reluctant to increase my puregon to improve the lining thickness. So looks like we may not get an embryo transfer yet again! I hate getting this far and then have to cancel at the transfer stage .

    Bugger hayldrew! That is really disappointing for you both. What is actually baseline? The oestrogen level?
    When do you find out if its cancelled? I hope things work out for you, if not this month, then next.
    I will probably be doing an FET in another month so come and join us in the Long Term Trying To Conceive Assisted Conception thread when you do your transfer.
    Keep your chin up, it will happen!

    Thanks Saffy. We will know more on Monday after another scan so see if things have improved enough to continue this month. After a chat with the nurse on friday afternoon, they are thinking my ovaries might have had enough of all the stimulating and just not responding to the drugs at the moment. So if no improvement this coming week they may suggest we take a break for a while so things can get back to normal ..........I really don't want to wait........now I'm just hoping and praying that there is improvement by monday for us to go ahead. I will come join the thread when we eventually get our transfer - thanks for the invite PS I think baseline refers to a low estrogen reading
