LGBT Parenting

Well, that's not what I wanted to see.

Needless to say, the RE visit did not go as planned today. My lining has not only not thickened, but it has gotten thinner. I'm not sure why, or what to do, but am patiently waiting for a call from the doctor.

On Thursday, my lining was 7.5-8. Today, all 3 measurements the nurse took were 6.5ish, none above 6.6. It's disheartening and disappointing. I don't want it to be cancelled, but it really seems like that will be the case.

Hopefully we get good news. If not, I will just poor myself into getting the house ready to move. I'm sure I can find plenty to keep me busy...or at least try. :(

Re: Well, that's not what I wanted to see.

  • POUR*** myself into moving.

  • Thanks. Haven't talked to him, but saw online he called in Provera. Any ideas on what it is?
  • Since I'm not seeing an RE right now, I don't know he would prescribe that. I did have some issues with my cycle years ago and Provera was a med I was given to either stop or start AF. I can't remember which it was, so I'm sorry that I'm not much help. I have no doubt that other members of this board will have a better answer!

  • Oh bummer :(. Provera forces your period, so it sounds like you are being cancelled. Sorry to tell you that and hope I'm wrong.

    What was your protocol?

    The only upside is that with a lining that thin, it would've been a sure BFN, and loss of an embryo and cost of a FET. But I'm so sorry!!
    Lil'mamaz was born on Aug 21, 2014! She's PERFECT!

  • Yes, I know it is cancelled for a logical reason, but I am crossing fingers for good news next round.

    Protocol was 3x2mg/day under tongue and 1/day vaginal suppository of estradiol/estrogen.
  • Spoke to nurse. Cancelled cycle. Will wait for AF and try again.
  • So sorry for the delay.  Hoping everything goes right for your next cycle.

  • I had a cancelled FET and it was super frustrating.  Even though I knew it was just going to delay me another cycle -- which really wasn't that big a deal -- I had a total meltdown.  Hope you are taking this in stride -- you will be trying again soon and hopefully have a different protocol with better results.
