HI everyone- I came across this all of your posts as I googles RA and IVF and was hoping people may have some advice for me.
I was wondering if people may have some insight or had some experience in what their treatments were.
Me: have RA so I know I have immune issues but I work with and RE who does not seem to think that this has anything to do with my 3 failed IUI's, 2 failed IVF's and now 2 failed FET's. I tend to think that the RA has something to do with it since I do notice that my RA tends to act up more during the second half of my cycle. My RE however does not think it is a cause of infertility and really only has to do with m/c. I tend to think it can cause both (but just my opinion).
When I am not doing treatments I take enbrel which through reading many things I noticed that has helped others with immune issues - I did use during one tx which did not work but my RE prefers I do prednisone during that time but only tells me to use what I think I need to be on.
What dosage have people been on for prednisone or steroids during their treatments? (I used 15 mg this last tx and although very minor I noticed some of the pains starting around 6dp3dt.)
and/or
Any other courses of treatment that people have used that you feel may help?
Any help is appreciated since I meet with my RE again on Tuesday and want to be able to come with some more information. If there was anyone else closer I would change but he is it.
