Pocos,
I hope you still get a bfp even though you are bleeding. I had bright red, heavy bleeding two days before my scheduled beta...when I saw the blood I assumed the worse. I had taken a home pregnancy test and it came out positive just the day before I started to bleed (so 3 days before my ...

Ninde,
At the new RE they had me take DHEA for three months three times a day prior to starting the IVF cycle. I think this helped with the increased number of eggs and the quality. I am in my early thirties but have a high FSH (I think it was 14 or 15) at the time we started the process.

The new ...

Ninde: Just jumping in on this thread. I usually read the boards but don't post much. I wanted to say I am sorry your last IVF didn't work. I went through three failed IVFs (two were miscarriages one was a bfn) and then finally on my fourth IVF/FET it worked. I hope if you go again that will be the ...

I had this same problem at my old clinic and I think it was due to the fact that they had everyone cycle at the same time and they always triggered me too early (I felt like it was to fit into their schedule rather than do what was best for my cycle). I did two rounds with that clinic and I always ...

Unfortunately when I asked my clinic all they said were our rates for FET are great and they showed me some paper they are about to publish quoting something like 70% success rates. I tried asking if the quality of my embryos was in line with their average patient and the doctor indicated that they ...

Ghost or anyone else who might know about this,

Do you know of any stats for BB grade blasts? I'm starting an FET cycle and the majority of my frozen blasts are grade BB. I have one 6AB as well. I was curious if the success rate with BB grade blasts is lmuch lower compared to AA blasts.

Thank you.

During my last IVF I had quite a few follicles ranging from 24-28. At retrieval they got 18 eggs and I didn't have OHSS (actually had no pain at all). My peak E2 was in the 3000s.

During my previous IVF cycle my peak E2 was in the 5000s (largest follicle was a 20), and I triggered wiht Lupron to ...

dogzrule, thanks so much for sharing your story. I think we'll try again and hopefully things will work out next time.

I just found out that my third IVF resulted in another miscarriage and I'm trying to think about my next steps (transfered a 3AA and 3AB). We have 9 frozen blasts from this last cycle, but I'm not sure if their quality is good enough to justify paying (we pay out of pocket) for an FET. Below is a ...

After a nice rise from 77 to 264 my next beta was 434. Ghost or anyone else who might have some thoughts on the matter...does this sound like a pregnancy destined to miscarry? In all of my other pregnancies my HCG always doubled or more early on. I'm very confused by my numbers with this pregnancy.

My first beta at 13 dpo was a 41.

Congrats, what was your beta???

Thank you. My first beta at 13 dpo (8dp5dt) was 41.

Thank you everyone. My pregnancy test was positive...now just waiting and hoping numbers keep going up.

Thank you for sharing your stories. My beta today went from 77 to 264 so hopefully things continue to go well.

Anyone have any thoughts on my hcg levels? At 13 dpo (did IVF 5 day transfer) my hcg was 41. At 15 dpo hcg was only 77. I know hcg levels don't have to double in exactly 48 hours, but I'm still worried. I've been pregnant 7 times now and only have one living child, so I'm worried that this pregnancy ...

Does anyone know if blasts graded 3AA (expansion graded on scale of 1-6) and 3AB have a good chance of working out?
