day 3 bloods pre treatment??

Post by cath sheen »

hello girls i'm due to start my 5th ivf in a few weeks and i'm really worried, my clinic have asked for different bloods to be taken at my gp's i have given them the results and they are extremly concerned about my day 3 blood result ( day 3 of actual period). they have phoned me today and want to see me straight away so i'm going tomorrow. they said the levels were far to high and not right for follicle stimulation. i'm scared now that i may be starting the change and it has taken us a long time to get the money for this. has anyone else had this problem?

Hi Cath Sheen,

Well......I'm wondeirng if your FSH is high...that may be their concern.

My FSH was high priro to IVF, on the 3rd day B/W and all thruought my stims. I only ended up with 3 follicles and 3 eggs :(

Not saying that is what they will tell you. But, the way my RE explained to me....FSH (follcile stimulating hormone) in your pituitary gland and tells your overaies what do do. When FSH is high that is a good indicatorr of # of follilces and eggs. Unfortuanley, his statements played out as true ofr me.

Good luck and keep us posted!! :).
