Ghost or anyone

Once again, I am spotting. I am 8dp5dt. All my hpts are negative. I went in and they did bloodwork. My beta is a pathetic 3 and my progesterone was low....

So, I assume that the fat lady has sung. But, no....they want to up my ...

Re: Early Egg release-Ghost, anyone?

Hi Ghost,

You were right. I will not transfer this cycle for exactly the reason you said. I am walking away with 31 eggs! I know they will not all be mature and/or develop to blasts, but I am hoping for some good numbers!

Thanks for all info!

Re: Early Egg release-Ghost, anyone?

They are leaning towards freezing and doing an FET in March.

Out of curiosity, why do they prefer to freeze with Lupron?

Thanks so much!

Early Egg release-Ghost, anyone?

Hi all,
I have my retrieval scheduled for tomorrow morning. I have 30-35 follicles. Due to my response, they triggered me with Lupron instead of HCG to help reduce the chance of OHSS.

I feel a little different this afternoon, not as much pressure...but, I still feel my ovaries.

Is it possible that ...

OHSS-Ghost or anyone else

Hi all,

I am in the middle of my third and final IVF cycle. Up until this point I have not produced a huge number of follicles and my lining has been borderline (never great). My doctors believed that my leukemia medicine was inhibiting the IVF meds, causing a less than stellar response and ...

Cleanse

Has anyone done one of those fasting cleanses in between cycles? A friend of mine is suggesting it before I do my next (and last) fresh IVF cycle in January? She is big into one particular brand and said the literature stated that it can help with infertility....I think I am grasping at straws here ...

Ghost-opinion please on negative hpt

Hi,
I just got a negative hpt at 7dp a frozen 7dt. Should it have been positive by now? If not, when?

Thanks for all you do for us on the board!

Day 7 embryo

Hi all,
I just had a single day 7 embryo transferred. It was good/fair quality. When will it implant (today)? and does anyone know if success rates are different with a day 7 versus a day 5?

e-tegrity test

Hi all,
I came across this test during my online searches. Here is the link: http://www.etegritytest.com/
It is supposed to detect a necesary component that allows the embryos to attach to the lining. Anyone ever hear about it or use it?

Thanks so much!

Re: implantation and other questions

Thanks for the answer Angela-SO helpful!

Unfortunately, this cycle was another negative...sigh... we have one fair quality embryo left.

We are thinking about getting a second opinion. Best of luck to all!

implantation and other questions

Hi all,

Negative HPT

Hi all,
I am 8dp5dfet and could not take the waiting anymore and took a hpt tonight at 5pm. It was negative........my beta is on Saturday.

Any hope for a positve? Would a hpt tomorrow morning be pretty accurate?

My first betas with my son were so low (not sure of the exact number) that they told me right away that it was not a viable pregnancy and that there was a good chance that it was ectopic. My numbers increased, but definitey did not double. We held our breath until we saw the heartbeat at 7 weeks. He ...
