I was just curious where your levels were for your FETs and also where your RE would like to see them? Just wondering since my RE is thinking that may be our issue since mine has been high during both our ivf and fet cycles.
Mine was 944 a week before my FET and my RE said that I was in optimal condition.

I'm going into my third FET and my RE wants it above 250 but hasn't told me the threshold that is too high. Here's a recap if it helps at all.
FET #1 - 2mg estrace orally 3x day = E2 was at 194 for lining check so we added a 2mg vaginally afterwards. Got BFP and m/c at 9w1d
FET #2 - 2mg estrace orally 3x day plus 2mg vaginally = E2 was at 1100 for lining check . Got BFP and m/c at 5w1d
FET #2 (now) = 2mg estrace orally 3x day plus 2mg vaginally = e2 was at 1447 at lining check today
In FET #2 and #3 they said it "looked great."

I don't know as they didn't give me my e3 levels last Friday. I will def. ask this coming Friday what they are but that will still be a week prior to my FET and I do not believe I will have another blood draw before then.
@liz4paws...my last FET my e2 a week prior was 1200 and now my RE is saying that is pretty high and could be a cause for our BFN as the lining was ready before transfer? Now I'm curious how some RE's call that range "perfect" and others say it is too high. Ah it's all just a gamble I think...
I also wonder about this being unexplained after two failed ETs where my e2 was 1000ish a week before transfer and yet considered "textbook" by my RE.

DE cycle here but same thing . . . my estrogen a little over a week before transfer was ~1200. And subsequently has been anywhere from 400-1000. I asked how that could happen (my dosing didn't change) and the nurse said "it can vary a lot over the course of a day." For what that's worth.
I'm choosing not to let it worry me. Good luck, ladies.
