Greetings,
I have been trying to research the efficacy of estrogen in IVF. My Dr. isn't not putting me on it, but several of my friends are taking it and they all got pregnant on their first cycle. Why is that estrogen is included in some protocols, but not all? Seems to me that it is as vital as the progesterone....
Thanks.

There is an unsolved controversy as to whether estradiol is beneficial in the luteal phase. Some don't use it. My clinic always does.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.

What is the benefit of using the estrogen??
Some think it helps to retain a pregnancy.
