I just wanted to let you know that my 2 previous FET's were medicated HRT cycles(ie: full medication) as I don't ovulate.
However due to my last HRT FET not making a perfect lining in the usual time for optimum transfer (about day 17 - 3 day emby) I ended up having the transfer at day 24.
This time however I am on a new protocol where we are trying to mimic a natural FET by me taking clomid day 2-6 and then a scan at day 10. If we have a lead follicle then I will get a trigger injection (probably around day 14) to make me ovulate and then the FET will be done to coincide with a natural cycle.
When doing both FET options, I have to take progesterone support from approx 3 days prior to FET and if successful for a further 10 weeks (ie: 12 weeks gestation) until the placenta kicks in. I have to do the support twice daily which is a bit inconveinent and expensive (about $5.50 per pessary) so $77 per week. If you have Privte Health Insurance you might be able to get some of the costs back (if you have presciption cover) but if not you can't claim anything back from Medicare, so just to give you a heads up on another cost apart from your FET cost.
