Q about inducing a period

google123

Hi Veterans,

 

I thought you ladies might know the answer.  So, I plan on doing an FET again.  Long story short, my nurse misinformed me and told me to cycle this month with estrace/prometrium...when I was IN FACT supposed to do the FET this month.  So obviously since I'm on prometrium+estrace...I can't go through with the FET since I'm already on day6 of prometrium. 

 

Well, anyways, it was a misunderstanding on both of our parts (but mostly her fault).

 

So, now I've been on estradiol 4mg for about 3w, and prometrium capsules orally for 6 days.  I'm wonder if I can stop the prometrium a few days early..instead of go through with the full 10 days.  The reason is....I want AF to be here already so I can start with the FET protocol.  Would it be that bad if I didn't take the full 10 days of prometrium?  Wouldn't I still get AF once I stopped all the meds?

 

Typically they give you the estrace, and then days 15-25 you take progesterone...as it mimics the hormones in a cycle.  Some clinics do days 12-22, others 14-24, etc etc.
