Hi Belle,

My FS has told me that it's pretty normal for your ovulation and cycle to go a bit wonky after a stim cycle.

I had two back to back stim cycles (with a down-regulated cycle in between - OCP and Synarel) and then when they weren't successful my FS didn't want me to try for a natural FET straight away, as she said we couldn't rely on when I would ovulate, if at all. (We've been trying to squeeze as many treatment cycles into a time frame before we move overseas).

I then had an artificial FET straight after the second stim, and this next cycle is back to a natural FET, where I ovulated 1 day late (day 15 for me). I was monitored with a scan at day 12, then OPK and BT to see whether I was going to ovulate, as FS still wasn't convinced that my cycle would have returned to normal. She was prepared to switch this natural cycle to an artificial FET if my body didn't cooperate!

So it seems that after the stims in particular, but when you've been on extensive hormone replacement therapy (either a stim or artificial cycle) it can take a little while for your body to return to it's normal natural cycle, especially with regard to ovulation.

In saying this, I hope it helps, but I also hope that you find that this cycle has a BFP coming or that AF arrives soon so that you can get to that FET soon, hun!

Good luck!

Miss C
