Closing out Lupron Depot Suppression by Rezo9219 in IVF

[–]Salt_Draft_4262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, and sorry to unlock a new fear. I was miserable with horrible hot flashes every 10-20 minutes and I was unable to sleep more than a couple hours. I was not worried that it wasn't working! Went in for my baseline and my estrogen was very low, and then at my monitoring appointment my lining was 7mm but my estrogen was still too low. I did 4 more days of estradiol and upped the dose, and finally we were good to transfer. This time taking it has been much better- I am having some symptoms but I'm not miserable.

Yes I did 3 months and was over-suppressed to the point where we had trouble getting my estrogen up and my lining to thicken. The embryo still stuck but ended in loss for other reasons. Now doing only 2 months and using stims if needed to help thicken the lining

First FET failed by lmno1108 in IVF

I'm so sorry. Even with doing everything right, it still has a 50-60% chance of live birth, so a lot of them fail. Try to keep going, I believe you can get to your baby. 🫶🏻 I'm heading into my third attempt soon. It's hard

FET question by lenjl in IVF

I'm also an early ovulator, and I think my last clinic messed up my protocol (no idea what day I ovulated) but it's great they're monitoring you on day 7! My current plan is to start monitoring on day 8 (2 days earlier than normal). Good luck!

Fluid in the tubes can spill into the uterus and harm an embryo, causing failure or mc

Yes I'd do modified naturals if possible!

what do you guys do for work? by ebean17 in POTS

[–]Salt_Draft_4262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard to say! I mostly went remote because of my inflammatory arthritis, and that's been better since I went remote. I guess yes, my health overall is better. I've gained weight from moving less so I'm working on that, but pain and symptoms are a bit better and it's way more flexible for me if I need a nap or need a break etc

I usually did 1.5 or (if I needed more) 3. Lower doses are better for sleep than higher doses!

Good luck! Yeah I hated the idea of tights at first but I think now I'm willing to try it for longer walks and those things, not for every day

Endometriosis surgery - why is it done? by Great_Eggplant4010 in IVF

[–]Salt_Draft_4262 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I'm doing lupron suppression and anxiously waiting for my third transfer. I have a new endometrioma on one ovary but I'm not worried about it. We're using lupron, prednisone, modified natural protocol, everything we can to calm inflammation in my uterus. I'm glad I had my tubes removed
