I feel a cold coming on and my embryo transfer is in a couple of days. Will being sick adversely affect my transfer?? I am so frustrated because I have been not been sick in ages and it is just my luck to get a cold right before my transfer!!
kristinpa- I am in somewhat of the same situation. I had my transfer on monday and have been sick for a few weeks. i asked my dr about it and he said the cold itself wouldnt affect anything. the main thing they are worried about is fever as it would keep your body too hot for the little guys to implant/survive. you can take tyonol and sudafed for the symptoms.
hope that helps
Me 25, DH 27
10X clomid, 3 w/IUI
IVF 1- BFP, MC@9 wks
IVF 2- BFN
husband laid off- no infertility coverage
3X with femara, all BFN's but has regulated my cycle and FINALLY got positives on ovulation test
Currently on my 4th cycle with femara
Just wanted to add it's not unusual to get sick during treatment, apparently downregulation medication lower your immunity as well.
Best of luck....
