Low estrogen and progestrone after the day 5 transfer

Post by sarita »

Hi,
I have 17 eggs retrieved on 5/16 and 11 fertilized thru ICSI and on day 3 my RE said 3 are top grade 8 cell, 1 is 7 cell and other is 6 cell and rest 4 are 4 cell quality and said he will go for blastocyst transfer. On day 5 he used two top quality embryos which he said was 150 and 200 cell. And they could freeze only two on day 6. So far everything went well in my cycle and Iam in 2ww. Today is day 4 after my ET and I went for bloodwork. My estrogen was 287 I was shocked to hear this number. On ET it was 1700 and it dropped so low and progestrone is 18 today and it dropped from 136 from ET.
Is there someone in the same situation and still had positive results. Iam so scared this is my 2nd IVF cycle and I heard it is difficult with these numbers and not to keep any hopes but same do not want to disappoint now.

thanks

Your levels are good enough for most protocols I've seen. No worries.
