FET Question for 5 day transfer

Hi Ladies,

I have an FET specific question. I am on vivelle patches + PIO (no trigger shot was involved). I'm 3dp5dt (with assisted hatching was done). I've been having a burning sensation in my lower abdomen since the day of transfer, any one experience something similar ? We're worried if its an infection or something ... ? or is this something from progesterone ? any ideas ? TIA!

DH :  36, has Chronic Kidney Disease, on dialysis & is waiting on the transplant list (average wait for B+ is 5 years)

Me:   36, Hypothyroidism, PCOS, BMI 32, need to be done with "child bearing" ASAP so that I can be a Kidney donor (was fun realizing we didn't as much time as we thought :-/ )

We're TTC#1

IUI #1 : 5mcg Letrozole (CD 3-7) + Ovidrel Trigger + Had the one follicle = BFN  (March 2014)

IUI #2 : 5mcg Letrozole (CD 3-7) + 150 iu Bravelle on CD9 (after much begging!) + Had the one follicle = BFN (April 2014)

7th May 2014 - changed REs, this one seems to care (we think....)

IUI #3 : 7mcg Letrozole (CD 3- 7) + 75 iu Bravelle (CD 8-12) + CD12 Scan 5/16 + Had 3 follicles (2 under 15mm) = BFN(May 2014)

IUI #4 : 7mcg Letrozole (CD 3- 7) + 75 iu Bravelle (CD 8-12) + CD12 Scan 5/16 + Had 1 follicle + DH gave best sample so far = BFN(June 2014)

IVF#1 -  ER Only Cycle Sept-Oct 2014, 17  eggs Retrieved, 14 mature, 10 fertilized, 6 made it to Blast & post PGS  5 were not viable due to chromosomal abnormalities
Not sure where we go from here...

Re: FET Question for 5 day transfer

  • I never had any burning from iui, fresh transfer or fet. I highly suggest calling your after hours line and asking them.
    Good luck, hope you get your bfp.
  • Loading the player...
  • @ddvj79 -I didn't have any "burning" sensations after either my fresh nor frozen transfers. I WAS on progesterone, but did NOT have assisted hatching.
    Wondering how severe the "burning" is... how soon after transfer did you start experiencing it? Is it across your whole lower abdomen, or does it feel like its your uterus? 
    I'd definitely touch base with your RE to discuss.

  • Its mostly my lower abdomen and it does feel like the uterus area is burning too, I'm not the most connected with my body. Thanks, I will email them about this.

  • absolutely @ddvj79 - I'll be holding you in my thoughts. Let us know what they say! 
    I'd like to think positively for you and just imagine the little embie is burrowing in extra deep ;)
    For assisted hatching did the use the laser or acid method?

  • Thank you @oxinfree
     Interestingly, the burning has gone down a bit after I started resting again. I left a message for the on call RE, hopefully will hear back. My cervix is violently opposed to a speculum & my uterus cramps like hell every time a catheter is involved. I had to take 2 valliums before transfer & one that evening as well...so, I was thinking it might be just that irritation from the procedure but 3 days of it seems a bit much though.

    I'm glad you're getting into contact with them.
    Our philosophy was always "call when worried about even the littlest of things, with how much money this is costing us, the doctor will be able to afford a new Benz, so they can answer a stupid question."
  • LOL! love it @suchaglencoco  :) & so true!
