FET - back 2 back, 30 days apart, Ghost/IVF nurse

Post by jenny34 »

Hi,
I just got a BFN on my first FET. It looks like we ended up on the wrong side of luck because embryo, lining, etc. were great.
We told our RE we wanted to go for it again. He said we do not need to take any time off. Instead of BCP I am going right back on estrace the second day of my period, and my second FET transfer will be exactly 30 days from my first, and failed, FET transfer. Protocol will be the same as the first FET - estrace, then the week of transfer they will add proges supps & antibiotics.

Has anyone else done a FET back to back? Is it better to take time off in between?
Ghost/IVF nurse - does this protocol sound OK to you or would you take time off in between?

Thank you for your help!!!!! We are running out of $ and want this to work, thank you!

We do "back to back" cycles sometimes. I don't know if they are any better or worse off.
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.

Kim - Congrats on your twins! That is great news!
Do you mind sharing what your protocol was -- meds, testing, etc?
Thanks for your help. Congrats again!

Hi Jenni:
I did a FET.
I was on bcp
Estrace (gradual increase of dose)
Baby ASA
PIO (last cycle I was on suppositories, and I felt I wasn't getting enough progesterone)
If you need more details, please let me know..PM me if you want.
I think it was great to do back to back.
Baby dust,
Kim
