I had my test Tuesday, the 25th, and it was negative. I have one frozen embryo.
What kind of time frame am I looking at until I can try with that one?
Anyone else have success with a FET after a failed IVF?
First IVF Negative - now what?

Hey Sherry - just wanted to pop in and say hi and, again, I am so sorry IVF didn't work for you this time.
I do not have personal experience with this myself, but I have read about lots of women who have gotten pregnant with FET after failed IVF. From what i have read, success rates go down slighty, but it can still work! Remember - my chances of success with IVF were cut in half when they discovered a hydrosalpinx during my stimulation phase. As you can see - I beat the odds so far, and so can you!!!
As far as time frame goes - I have no idea. Do you have a follow-up scheduled with your doctor?
I'm really praying for you sweetie

My first try at IVF with ISCI didn't work out in March. I have sat one cycle out and am now working towards getting my FETs back in my body where they belong. I am on day five today and it all seems a whole lot easier than the IVF fresh cycle. I only have to take Estrofem, an oral tablet to raise estrogen levels to help line the womb. I go back to my Dr next week on day 10 of my cycle to see how I am doing. I am sure once I have had the FET the old injections will start coming at me for the progesterone.
This cycle I am doing two things different. One is I am taking Zita Wests vitamins and the second is I am undergoing accupuncture. I have also had reflexology and massage.
My Dr has also told me that the success rate of FET is 8% less. I have also read that if these embryos can survive the freeze and thawing process they are already fighting for their life. I prefer to hang on to that thought and know how fortunate I am even to have the opportunity of a FET.
Good luck. I remember the only thing that kept me going after my failed fresh cycle was how fortunate I was that I could quickly move onto a FET cycle.
By the way, I live in Hong Kong. Is anyone else in my part of the world as it is very lonely going through this over here?
