I am back for round #2.
We went for initial US & BW and my right ovary had two giant cysts...but my E2 was great @ 29. I went yesterday and had the cysts aspirated...ewww. Started stims today. Ready to get this moving!

Amy: So sorry for your loss, I know how heart wrenching it is! Prayers for you as you begin your next step.

AFM: AF reared her ugly head Friday. It has been my heaviest and most painful period EVER! Thank you progesterone :P
This week has been heartbreaking and I took 3 days off work to allow my ...

Went for my second beta test today and my already low numbers dropped. This cycle is now over for me. Time for my heart to heal.

Best of luck to those with upcoming betas, praying the best of results for all of you!!

Beta results back and it is positive, but my levels are very low(7.5) so I go back on Monday to see if they are improving. But, I am PREGNANT!! Never been pregnant before!! Small celebration. Hubs is doing a good job of staying positive and reminding me that through this whole process I have been a ...

Amy317: I had some bleeding for several days after my transfer. They said it was normal. I go on Friday also for my beta. I have managed to not POAS so far. I hope you are starting to feel better at this point.

I only have 2 days left until I my beta. I am resisting the urge to POAS just because I am too scared to find out if it is bad news. I will continue to bask in being PUPO until Friday. Being my first cycle, this is all new to me. I have had lots of cramping and nausea. I am pretty sure that is from ...

Had our ET yesterday, 2 pretty blasts. The embryologist brought us a wonderful picture. One was a c/d and the other a b/c. The b/c blast had shrunk down when she took the picture. when we went in for transfer several hours later she said it had plumped back up so she tried to take another pic but ...

This is my first cycle of IVF and I am starting to worry that we will not get any eggs. I am now on day 13 of Lupron and Day 11 of Menopur. I go back for another check tomorrow, but so far the only follicles large enough are the cysts that were there before we started this. My Estrogen level is ...

I just got my pre/post implantation instruction sheet and it said no heavy lifting or physical exertion for 2 weeks after the procedure. Those were the recommendations from my clinic.

SuzyQ- thanks for the encouraging words. I'm so glad I'm not the only one with a vanishing ovary. Luckily the nurse found it yesterday and it is growing some follicles. It is causing me a lot of pelvic and back pain. Making it difficult to get good rest.

AFM- I should have been done with Follistim ...

TinaLou- I have never heard of such a thing. You mean they were never able to find it on ultrasound and they have seen it before? Welcome to the group and best of luck to you.


Oh, my left ovary has been there every time. Doc was even able to find my artery on the ultrasound and said it is ...

Okay, I just had my first u/s and bloodwork since I started stimms. Right ovary had 4 follies and one cyst. Left ovary has vanished. Nurse then doc looked and could not find it. Does this happen?

Then they tell me I have fluid in my uterus. I am on my period now so doc said it could be a clot, but ...

Thanks for your encouraging words Sunshine. My husband had semen analysis 10 years ago when we tried IUI. He had very low count at the time and we tried a supplement to increase the count, it did, barely. 3 IUIs were unsuccessful. Fast Forward 10 years and we are going for IVF, husband has new semen ...

Hi, I am brand new to IFV. I am on Day 5 of my drug protocols and I am currently taking .2ml of Lupron morning and night, and 2 days ago added Follistim in the morning and Menopur in the evening. Lupron has caused some mild headaches, but the most pronounced have been the shooting pains in my lower ...
