My first cycle was cancelled, although I did make it to EPU and had 4 eggs collected. However, none fertilised so didn't get any further for that one. Subsequently my FS increased my dose of Gonal F. I've now done 7 cycles (if you count 1xIUI and 1xFET) and the protocol has been quite different in every cycle, although most of the time I've still been on Gonal F 450. I've had different things introduced, such as Luveris injections, which I remember because I think that was my most successful cycle (most eggs fertilised). There seems to be quite a few different protocols that can be tried, so if it's appropriate I'm sure your FS will change it. As for me, I will try one more cycle with my current FS as she wants to try steroids and Clexane, but if I have no success with that I'm going to change FS. So if you find yourself at a dead end trying the same thing over and over again without success, you also might want to consider a second opinion.
Hi all, just been reading your stories, sorry to hear about the cancelled cycles... I think my frozen embryo transfer maybe cancelled too! Had scan last Friday and FS said my follicles quite small (10mm), though to start BT's on Tuesday. Well day two and clinic phoned and advised no need to have any further tests, but couldn't say why, the doctor will phone me tomorrow (currently day 14 of a 30 day cycle). I can't wait for that phone call, I want to know now!! Has anyone had a natural FET? It's great no injections or drugs, but this waiting still frustrating...
As soon as they cancelled my cycle they told me to go straight on the pill, that was 2 days ago. I have started getting pain around my ovaries, is it possible they are still growing? I have been summoned to the FS's office on Monday for a scan so I guess I will find out then, but I am getting impatient.
Hi nellym, maybe they are still growing, crossing fingers and toes for you! Well, I felt ovary pain today and then heard from my FS and all is good for the transfer on Monday. Still nervous though! x
