First IVF

TD

Hi all

So, we are starting our IVF meds on May 18th and tentatively will be going in for our egg retrieval around Memorial Day weekend. Just to give some background- We have tried two IUIs prior to this, both unsuccessful. I have endometriosis and thankfully it’s not too far along, but I do have an endometrioma that’s on my left ovary so that’s the cause for our infertility. My RE told us last November that he felt IVF was the best way to go especially with a FET option. My levels are great, and I responded beautifully with the IUI meds. Had around 3-5 mature follicles on each round of IUIs. So I feel I will respond okay on the IVF meds too. Our plan is to wait the month of June out then transfer in July so that my body can rest.

I am wondering if anyone out there has participated in IVF with an FET a month or so later? If so, did you have success? I guess I’m more concerned about the eggs surviving after the retrieval. For some reason I just feel that’s the cAtch here.
