Egg retrieval cancelled

JenniferAW17

My husband and I are going through IVF again trying for our second child. I just completed a 30 day priming cycle, trying to increase the quality of eggs. I moved into a stim cycle and on my second monitoring appt (on day 9) I was given the news that I had two follicles, one of which they believed was actually a cyst. The other was too small and no usable. The clinic told me that they believed the cyst was absorbing all my meds preventing any follicles from forming. They also told me that they believed I had already ovulated and therefore this cycle was to be cancelled. I’m so frustrated and have not been given any answers as to what to do moving forward. My estrogen level was 1485, not taking any estrogen pills this cycle. I suspect I have had cysts my last few cycles as my estrogen has been elevated every time and it has been mentioned to me in the past but nothing done about it. I have a consultation with the dr but of course after my next cycle is due to start. Has anyone had this issue or know of anything that could help?

It’s frustrating to face a canceled cycle due to a cyst. Cysts can indeed absorb medications, impacting follicle development. Discuss with your doctor potential adjustments, like changing protocols or addressing cysts before your next cycle. Seeking a second opinion might also provide new insights and possible solutions for your IVF journey.
