Please can anyone help, i have had one failed icsi attempt and am in the process of going through FET, on 9th july i started injecting Suprefact(buserelin acetate). I went for a scan yesterday and was told that my lining was still to thick (sorry to be graphic), therefore i have got to inject for another week before i start on Progynova tablets as well as injecting. I am then due to have et on 15th august. I have read several threads but cannot see anyone else going through the same as me or on the same drugs, i would be very grateful of any replies off anyone who could reassure me that they are going through the same or have been.. Thank you Nicola x x

Hi Nicola, there are lots of different drugs and some are the same just with different names - please dont worry. I used suprefact injections to down regulate and then also injected menopur to stimulate. Whatever I did it worked (2nd icsi) so just relax - I'm sure you'll be fine. Best of Luck - love, Jo.XX

Hi Nicola I had FET last week and I was (and still am) on Progynova (HRT). I started this after they'd scanned my on day 3 of my cycle. I don't know what your condition is, but perhaps as you weren't at the beginning of your natural cycle, so they're supressing you first with Buserelin. I started on 1, then 2, then 3 Progynovas a day for a couple of weeks, with scans to check the lining thickness. My lining wasn't as thick as they wanted it, so I then went to 4 a day till it was ready (I don't think it's just about thickness, it's also blood flow etc) and have been on it ever since - basically I'm to continue with it till I do the pg test next week. After the et they also put you on the Cyclogest progesterone pessaries of course. Hope this is of some help. Nicola M x

Thank you both for your replies, i do feel more at ease now, i no its easier said than done but when you are new to all this you seem to do nothing but worry. Nicola your treatment sounds very similar to mine ive got to take 1 tablet for so many days then 2, then 3, good luck anyway Love Nicola xx
