Secondary IF

Here we go again...

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?

    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.

    How long of a break does he want to do? 

    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.

  • You can say no and move ahead, I have plenty of times when my RE suggested a break. It's really up to you in the long run, just know there could be risks. (although break or not IF meds are risky) 

    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!
