Trouble TTC

Recurrent Cysters...please come in!

Hi, my name is Native+Girl, and I'm a recurrent cyster. Anyone else out there? Literally after every single treatment cycle, I end up with cysts and have to sit out a month, which halves my already sh!tty odds. I'm so over this.

Anyone's RE explain why some women are prone to cysts or offer alternative treatment plans other than just Clomid? My RE says sometimes it just happens that way. I don't like that answer. There has to be some sort of scientific explanation.

  • My step sister had a lot with femara and then  was fine with clomid. Maybe you just react poorly to clomid can do femara without cysts?  Would your re be willing to try femara?  Sorry about the cysts that must be very frustrating!

    I don't think my RE is a fan of Femara, not really sure why though. If my E2 comes back low enough, he agreed to aspirate it, but I have a feeling it's going to be high. If they can aspirate it, I'll talk to him about maybe switching up meds. Days like today I miss working with DH. It'd be nice to have his shoulder to cry on.

  • When I met with my RE last week we were talking about the fact that I get a lot of cysts.  He told me that the higher the dose of meds the more likely you are to get cysts.  150 on clomid pretty much always gave me cysts.
