Back from 4th IVF follicle check...I have a POLYP!!!

Post by Summer2010 »

Went in for my 4th follicle check today. I have 22, the largest is at a 15. My doctor says he thinks my ER will be either Monday or Tuesday. When he was administering my sonogram he noticed a polyp, that on the sonogram screen was the size of a quarter. He said that polyps can irratate the lining of the uterus and can cause implantation to not happen in some women.
I want to know what I am working with here. Is this going to cause significate risk that my IVF will not work?

THANKS

I've never studied their effect on IVF outcome, but I know the docs won't transfer in some cases of uterine anomalies. It may be better to freeze the embryos and wait for a better uterus in those cases.
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.
