I had my beta today and it came back negative. I am so sad and depressed. My RE wants me to take a break again, but first he wants us to come in for a consult to talk about our next protocol. I really wish I didn't have to take a break, so we can just get moving onto the next cycle. How much more of this can I take?

I'm so sorry!!! Hang in there sweetie!!!!!!! You will be in my prayers tonight!!!
(Let us know what you decide)
I'll be sending postive thoughts your way! HUGS!
He mentioned giving my ovaries a break from the meds. If I don't have any cysts and everything is quiet, I want to get a move on. My time is precious (35y/o) and so are my eggs (low AMH). Hopefully I will just need to go on BCP for a couple weeks at the least.

He said couple months, but when I called back and talked to the nurse about something, I asked her and she said at least a month. I'll find out more next Tues.

I can say though that I was very very into getting the show on the road and not taking breaks until I ended up on a forced break. Now a couple cycles later I am on a willing break and it's not that bad. I am very calm now.
Good luck with whatever you choose!
