DB ment'd...
Hi,
I had a succuessful IVF that resulted in my DB. I am starting IVF again for a 2nd child. I had no issues the first time.
This time, my FSH is borderline at 9.6. I have started my BCP's and am on Day 6 out of 14. I woke this morning to find that I was bleeding. TMI, sorry. It's heavier than spotting but not a full flow. Should I be worried? Is this normal? I didn't take BCP's with my first cycle so I don't know if this is supposed to happen.
Any feedback would be great.
TIA!
??Worried?? BCP question
Hi,
I'm on my second IVF cycle and had similar experiences. The first time, I spotted the entire 14 days I was on the BCP. This time I had a heavier flow, but it stopped around day 8 or 9. The nurses told me not to worry about it - it is just your body adjusting to the hormones in the BCP. Good luck to you on your cycle.

I also spotted most of the time I was on BCP. At first it made me pretty nervous but after weeks of spotting and talking with my RE I knew it couldn't be too bad because he wasn't worried at all. Now here we are pg with twins!
Good luck and I hope you get another BFP!!!!!

Hi Tia -
I'm not sure what protocol you are on, but I thought I would pass this along as well. After 2 weeks of BCP, I was off for 3 days before starting my stims (bravelle/menopur). I actually had another period - it lasted 5 days. Again, the nurses said it is normal, so if it happens to you, don't worry.
As far as my cycle, I had my ET on Sunday and my ET will be on Friday. They retreived 8 mature eggs and fortunately all 8 fertilized with the help of ICSI. Although, the next two days will be critical, as they will start weeding them out. In my first round, I started with 8 and only had 2 left to transfer, which unfortunately were not the best quality and didn't take. So, needless to say, I'm a bit skeptical, but still hopeful. I started down this IVF road due to my DH (sperm quailty issues). The first round was exciting, but I was a bit naive. This round I have worried a lot more. What a roller coaster of emotions. I just keep reminding myself to take it one day at a time.
Take care an good luck with everything!
