Totally freaked out

runner76 · May 2016

Well since my h has said how sex has changed I was trying to make him happy.. I was told to stop bc pill on thursday to start prepping for frozen transfer. Im supposed to start estrogen pills and progesterone on monday.. well we had sex last night and today in my hopes to make him happy. Now I am freaked out i can get pregnant... i start these meds which i am sure would be harmful to a fetus on monday and my transfer is supposed to be june 5- 7. i didn't even think and the nurses never mentioned abstaining so i acted on impulse.. i paged the RE. he said it would be extremely unlikely. but if i am to have sex i can use a condom if i want to be 100% certain.. great. I told him i had my period 2 weekends ago which would technically mean i am ovulating... he said the pill should of stopped anything from forming tho?? But what if i ovulate a few days late and now this sperm is in me. my mind is going nuts right now.. anyone have any insight please??

It sounds like you've been off birth control for 2-3 days? That is not enough time for a follicle to develop and for you to ovulate. Birth control pills suppress ovulation - so your ovaries were "asleep" until you stopped it. Plus your RE said it would be extremely unlikely and that's why they're paid the big bucks, so I would tend to believe that too!

You are fine, take a deep breath and relax. Your RE or nurse would have told you if you needed to abstain from sex.

@runner76, I've noticed you have created a lot of new topics asking for answers and support regarding your IVF treatment. There are already a few threads here where you can participate and get to know others on similar cycles, such as the April/May or June/July IVF threads. I highly recommend you take part in those, and get to know others in this community. This is a community where you give support to receive support. Good luck to you.

I completely agree with @wifeinraleigh28. There is an entire thread dedicated to IVF, and that would be a great place to go with you questions, and also show the support to others that you are asking for from us. Gotta give to receive.
