Trouble TTC

Has AF ever come for anyone during a cycle of monitoring? (Before/without ovulation)

I know I keep asking questions recently but just trying to figure out what's going on with me. I started having cramping yesterday which I thought indicated that my follies were finally growing but then later I noticed some other pms symptoms like the heavy/sore boobs, breaking out, etc which usually happen for me a few days to a week before AF. I don't want to waste $$ on a 3rd monitoring appt if it's possible that AF is coming but is it possible it's somehow related to a growth spurt of the follies?? LOL. It is sort of early too (today is cd16 of usually 30 day cycles).

Me: 32  DH: 33  Married: March 2004

July 2006: started TTC
2008: HSG (normal), couple rounds of clomid through gyno
2008 - 2010: dragging my feet out of fear and procrastination
October 2010: first consultation with RE, dx PCOS and fibroids (DH slightly low count/motility)
Oct. 2010 - Dec. 2012:  In DENIAL! avoided the issue because I was scared of surgery
January 2013: returned to RE, fibroids grew significantly
February 2013: second HSG, fibroids pushed on tubes which blocked them somewhat
March 2013: MRI to determine what type of surgery may be necessary

July 29, 2013: fibroids (5) removed via robotic laparascopy
August 2013 - Nov 2013 : benched due to recent surgery

IUI #1, Dec. 24, 2013, BFN 
IUI #2, Jan. 25, 2014, BFN
IUI #3, Feb. 25, 2014  BFN
IUI #4 canceled due to lack of response to letrozole
IUI #4.1 April 28, 2014, BFN

May 16, 2014: wtf consult, start prepping for IVF in June and add injects for one last IUI in the meantime
IUI #5 started letrozole and bravelle but canceled after HSG led to new diagnosis

May 21, 2014: third HSG, tubes blocked, one at the beginning, one hydrosalpinx??
June 11, 2014: consult, approved to move on to IVF because the hydro is not completely blocked therefore allowing fluid to move through slowly rather than backwards
IVF #1 August 8, 2014 - 3dt of 2 embryos, BFN
September 17, 2014 - 4th HSG, the right tube is very patent (open!!) dye went straight through this time. Weird!
October 2, 2014 - started metformin treatment
November 14, 2014 - blood work, brought A1C down from 5.8 to 5.5

November 26, 2014 - RE finally back from vaca and reviewed my chart, no more IVFs for rest of calendar year
December 1, 2014 - Right after Thanksgiving, I called a new clinic and got in right away! Plan for IVF
December 17, 2014 - ER! 29 retrieved (!!), 16 mature, all 16 fertilized (ICSI)

IVF #2 December 20, 2014 - 3dt of 3 embryos, BFN

We are done with treatment unsuccessfully. :(

  • I think this is what happend to @IntuitiveBlue‌ last cycle. Maybe she will chime in with her experience. I think it was from a drop in E2 levels. I would probably go to the monitoring appointment and see what the RE has to say. Good luck in whatever you decide to do! ((hugs))

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but you won't have a period until after you ovulate. Then again I'm learning as I go along. I know when I'm doing the injections I have horrible cramping and my boobs get sore around ovulation. Maybe this is just your ovaries getting their but in gear (or the tortoise finally getting close to the finish line)

    I feel invested in your ovaries now, I'm keeping eye on you. Good luck!
    Fucking bump!!!!
