I started birth control on 8/4. I started bleeding on 8/15 and have not stopped since then (11 days). My nurse told me the certain pill i am taking is sensitive and if i dont take it at exactly the same time everyday, i will start my period. i missed one dose but took it 5 hours later then i ...

Has anyone had to take prometrium to get a period after a failed IVF cycle? Just wanted to know how long i should expect to have a period after starting the medicine and what side effects are involved.

Thank you so much for the answer. My dr was not able to provide me with one, just that it was common. Still no period. Hopefully i will get one soon or they will have to prescribe me something to get it going. I really appreciate your help.

After my egg retrieval, we were not able to go forward with the transfer due to abnormal embryos found through PGD. (my husband has a balanced translocation) i had a normal period after the retrieval, but have not had another since then. I am now going on 47 days with no period. I am usually a ...

Our first cycle was cancelled due to poor response to meds. i only produced 7 eggs. the 2nd we had 5 embryos that reached blastocyst. but was cancelled after the PGD was done and found 1 embryo was abnormal and the other 4 they said received "no signal". they said they became degenerative. We wanted ...

I have had 2 cancelled IVF cycles. For both i started with 15-16 follicles. 16 for 1st cyle, 15 for 2nd cycle. If i was to try ivf again, could my number of follicles increase with more meds or will i always have around that number? We must have PGD so i need more eggs. I heard somewhere that you ...

Thank you for the response. If all 5 were genetically abnornal, then we have a long road ahead of us.

We had 5 embryos reach blastocyst and had PGD testing done on all of them. They confirmed one embryo was abnormal (my husband has a balanced translocation) but the other 4 they received "no signal". My RE told us that once they did the biopsy on those 4 "no signal", they stopped growing and became ...

Can anyone recommend what to do after the transfer as far as activity? I have requested the day after off of work, but should i refrain from moving around too much? anyone have advice on what helped them achieve a BFP or does it even matter?

Anyone have a day 6 transfer? I always thought it was 3-5 days?

is it possible for all 5 of our fertilized embryos to reach blastocyst?

Thanks for the responses! We found out today that 5 fertilized. We are a little nervous at how many we will end up with because we have to do PGD for recurrent miscarriages (3). Three more days until we know for sure! I feel like all we have been doing for the past 3 years is waiting so a couple ...

I just got home from the egg retrieval and they were only able to get 9. Has someone had similiar experience with this number and if so, how many actually fertilized and were good for transfer? I need some answers, im very anxious and dont feel like we have many to go from.

My egg retrieval is in 2 days and im a little nervous. Any advise you can offer is appreciated. Is it possible they could retireve more eggs then they see through ultrasound?

Our egg retrieval is scheduled for tuesday (in 3 days) and my breasts have become sore for 2 days now. My estradiol and progesterone levels are great. Is this normal?
