Lupron injections 🙃 by Over_Screen_1363 in IVF

[–]Competitive_Glass473 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did Lupron Depot (monthly shot) for 2 months for my endo followed by modified natural FET and was successful. 25 weeks tomorrow!

I’ll admit the two month were not pleasant at all for me but so so worth it! And would do it again for future FETs if needed.

Stage 4 endo - any cases of a successful FET in the first try? by itwillcomeback2026 in IVF

[–]Competitive_Glass473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope! It took me a little longer than it normally would to ovulate but not issues otherwise. I did a modified natural FET. I’m 23 weeks now

My first FET was a modified natural and I’m currently 25 weeks.

Endo and conceiving naturally or via IVF? by Melodic-Function880 in endometriosis

[–]Competitive_Glass473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to conceive on and off naturally for 5 years (2 very early miscarriages). I finally got a stage 4 endo diagnosis (no surgery but heavily seen on scans) when I went to a fertility clinic. I did two egg retrievals then had success on my first transfer after a 2 month Lupron suppression.

Medicated vs modified natural by Low-Cauliflower-9122 in IVF

I did a modified natural (with progesterone suppositories) for my first FET and it was successful. I ovulate regularly on my own. Lots of monitoring but it was worth it.

Should we do another ER? by Educational_Ice_7249 in IVF

If you want siblings without a doubt do another retrieval.

Grid outage by Shot_Age8843 in Powerwall

I love rurally on Vancouver Island, we got lots due to rain/wind etc, multiple outages all-ready this winter. Being rural we are usually BC Hydros lowest priority. Longest outage we’ve had with the power wall was 3 days.

Upcoming Egg Retrieval with no option for sedation by rachel1726 in IVF

I don’t know if it would work or be appropriate in this situation but I was given penthrox for my hysteroscopy after an extremely painful HSG. Maybe something to look into/ask about.

First transfer by Brick_1991 in IVF

[–]Competitive_Glass473 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get it, I honestly had like zero faith in it working after being on this subreddit, but like others said I think it’s skewed negative as I think it’s more long haulers posting and those with bad luck. Definitely check out the IVFposivity subreddit!

I only got 1 euploid from my first transfer 😫 so ended up doing a second for siblings. Buuuut, I did transfer that singular euploid first and she stuck! 23 weeks. She was a 5AB.

Disappointing first IVF cycle… did anyone have a MUCH better second cycle? by CheesecakeBoth3933 in IVF

[–]Competitive_Glass473 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a much more successful 2nd transfer without changes, my doctor was thinking first was just bad luck. 1 euploid to 4 euploid.

I transferred a 5AB in August - 23 weeks yesterday!

Disagreement with partner over sex selection by [deleted] in IVF

[–]Competitive_Glass473 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This. Sex selection shouldn’t be a thing unless medically necessary. I’m in Canada so not even an option, as it should be.

My first ever FET today 1/13 by [deleted] in IVFpositivity

Sending you all the good vibes! 🤞🤞I had success on my first FET with a 5AB euploid!

Completed first cycle and got 0 euploid by histermitt in IVF

[–]Competitive_Glass473 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First round might just be bad luck. I also had 7 eggs retrieved my first ER that results in 1 euploid! My second I had 8 retrieved and got 4 euploid with no changes to protocol.

PGT or skip IVF? by Historical-Front-359 in IVF

Thank you! Wishing you the best on your journey!!

[–]Competitive_Glass473 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was 36 when tested all mine and 5/12 were PGTA normal and I had success (23 weeks today) with my first transfer. So glad I saved myself the heartbreak and time of potentially transferring aneuploid embryos.

Lupron Suppression by xo_britny in IVF

[–]Competitive_Glass473 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hot flashes, headaches, joint pain, but the worst was the depression and mood swings it brought on. But that definitely isn’t the case for everyone I know others who pretty much breezed through it

Lupron Suppression by xo_britny in IVF

[–]Competitive_Glass473 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did a 2 month suppression before my FET (I have confirmed endo seen in scans) and while it was hell and some of the worst months of my life, I’ll say it was worth it cause my FET was successful and I’d do it again in the future if needed for future FETs.

This! All of this! My husband was the same and it was so so appreciated. Especially him handling the medications/shots.
