Af- Delayed By Ivf?

hi girls. quick rundown.

20 march started synarel for ivf took aaages to work and started puregon injections a week later than supposed tooo due to low reaction. had to up dose of puregon after 11 days and even then FS only expected 1-2 eggs at pickup. luckily we got 7, of which 6 fertilised and 5 grew to day 5 blasties. had 1 one blastie put back in on may 2 ( day after AF due) beta BT showed my body THOUGHT i was pregnant but no pregnancy hormone detected. stopped crinone pessaries on the 11 and got AF on the 12th. had the witch for 8 long days....

now AF was due by today at the latest. i have NO cramps or symptoms and really want AF coz then starts beginning of natural FET cycle.

could cycle 1 have affected my AF? has anyone else been late in a similar situation. (syanrel delayed AF in cycle 1 too!):wall:

I sometimes got a funny, out-of-whack cycle after I'd done a full stim cycle, Sonya, so it's possible that the meds have messed you up a little. Though I was terrible and always POASed just in case :redface:, though I knew my possibility of a natural pg was zero.

how funny! i KNOW without a doubt im not pregnant but 2 days ago i still POAS!!!! wishful thinking i guess.....glad im not the only one.... oh well heres hoping for cramps, sore back, bloating, sore legs and sticky mess.... what a wish eh?

Lol! We LTers always seem to either dread the witch or are desperately hoping for her to arrive! And yes, I'm a terrible closet POASer, too!

Sonya - did she come? Are you scheduling in your FET yet?
Synarel did screwy things to almost everyone i think!!

Syrenal can delay the AF. You will have to ring FS and see what they say. Good luck with it hun!!

rang concept this morning. they said even though ihad AF as soon as i stopped crinone, the amount of drugs i took in the first stimulated cycle with fresh transfer would still be affecting my cycle. nurse did say that if AF isnt here by monday, ring to organise a BT and they will see what my levels are at... poor DH, he gets back from thailand sunday arvo. i was hoping to be over AF by then so we could have a little 'hanky-panky!" oh well i will probably get the witch on sunday HA!HA! we have gone 10 days without 'private time' whats another week (horrified gasp!)

Hi Sonya - i've just figured out that you are doing a FET straight after a stim cycle. Wow, you are a bit lucky! Yeh, i guess you still will have a few drugs hanging around and mucking things up a bit. Hope she comes to hassle you soon...waiting is a bit frustrating sometimes.

i feel like a donkey chasing the carrot. its so close i can see it and smell it, BUT ITS JUST NOT HAPPENING!!!!!! im sure next week i will be posting how much pain AF is giving me (fingers crossed!) not long for you now Kotare!!! best wishes...

Don't you love that we are all discussing your personal info (i.e. AF etc) and it feels totally normal!
Yeh - bring on next week!!!

Hi Sonya, I had exactly the same thing when I went through my 1st stim cycle, AF is 4 days late, when the cycle failed, we need to have a month break before starting the FET cycle, and for that month, although no medication at all, I was about 4-5 days late, at one point, I even thought I was pregnant...I guess the drugs can mess up your cycle a bit, even a month later...hope it soon will turn up! I found it quite funny that I've never looking forward to AF that much...good luck hun!

thanx beibei! just posted a big congrats to you honey! hopefully Kotare and i will be joining you very soon with our own BFP's (plus alot more lovely TTC ers)

Hi,

My AF was really late after a fresh cycle (you'd think the nurses might mention that, knowing how much we are looking for any signs possible):wall:.
Anyway it did finally arrive and then I did a FET straightaway with no drugs and hey presto, I am expecting a little boy next week. So fingers crossed for you too:pray:

thanx sarah

good luck with the arrival of bubs soon!

still no AF but i have been researching and some women on BB a year ago were saying their AF was upto 10 days late. i am technically 6 days late, so heres hoping she comes soon. thanks for all your support girls... what would i do with out you probably go crazy!!!

went to concept for a bt this morning to see what my levels are. got up before dawn for the 40 min drive in peak traffic. get home by 9am. 1 hour later BAM! AF arrives in full force, 8 days late.... when i ring at 2.30 for results i will let them know and this natural FET will be underway!!!! YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol Sonya that has soooo happened to me before too! Great news on AF finally showing her ugly mug and letting you start your FET!

That's great Sonya - may this be your month!!!

NO Kotare July is my month for sure... spoke to nurse and have my day 12 BT next sat 30th. then just wait for that surge and Whammo! FET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yay! finally getting excited again. it was so cool when they were asking if all the forms were in (permission etc) and then a congratulations your starting your FET cycle.......... so now im going to pop back to the monthly LTTTC thread.
