Trouble TTC

XP: Update on IVF #3

As you may recall, baseline for IVF #3, take 4 didn't go so well last week.  However, I just got off the phone with my nurse and even though I didn't have any more bleeding as they had hoped over the weekend, they are going to have me get my E2 drawn tomorrow morning.  If my E2 is low, they are going to have me start stims tomorrow.  If my E2 is high, I will do BCPs for a week and then have thing re-assessed.

I would hate to be cancelled again.  But, last week my RE was concerned that this cycle wouldn't work if we didn't get my lining to thin before starting stims.  So, now, I'm worried that if I'm not cancelled, this cycle will be a failure because of my lining.  But, if I do get cancelled, will I ever get to cycle?  How will one week of BCPs help?  Should that cause me to have AF again?

I guess I just have to wait and see what my E2 is like tomorrow!

ETA - Any positive vibes or T&Ps would be greatly appreciated!

Re: XP: Update on IVF #3

  • I really hope things look good tomorrow and you can move forward.  Or that things progress quickly if you do have to put it off.  A week of BCP should cause you to shed some lining. 

    Thinking of you and hoping for the best! :)

  • I really hope that you can move forward with this cycle.  I am sure if they put you on BCP's for a week it would do something.  Maybe force AF when you go off them?  I was on them for 2 weeks (although it was just to suppress me) and my lining def. got really thin.  They didn't even think I would bleed since it was so thin, but I did a little. 

    I really, really hope this works out for you sweetie!!!
